Requirement: Each salesperson must be assigned to only one region, and combinations must be enforced automatically to avoid inconsistent commission reporting.

In Business Central, this is achieved by defining a Dimension Combination rule between the Salesperson dimension and the Region dimension.

Setting it to Blocked prevents users from posting with an invalid salesperson-region combination.

Other options:

A. Limited restricts only dimension values on certain accounts.

B. Default Dimension Priorities controls which default dimension wins, but does not enforce uniqueness.

D. Default Dimensions on Customer Cards helps with defaults, but doesn’t prevent invalid combos.

Comprehensive Detailed Explanation

Deliver on a specific customer date

Salespeople must avoid promising inventory that is not available.

To check whether the requested delivery date can be met, the correct action is to review Item Availability by Periods.

This allows them to see when stock will be available across time periods, ensuring promised delivery dates are realistic.

Other options are less accurate:

Change the Requested Delivery Date → does not confirm if stock is available.

Check the Catalog on Sales Line → only for product lookup, not availability.

View the Location Code → shows location assignment, not time-phased availability.

Correct: View the Item Availability by Periods

Process quotes

Requirement: Salespeople must convert quotes to orders once they are finalized.

In Business Central, this is done by selecting Make Order from the Sales Quote.

Other options:

Make Invoice → bypasses order process, not applicable here.

Copy Document → creates a new document, not the required process.

Release → applies to orders but not to quotes-to-orders conversion.

Correct: Choose Make Order

Check Item Availability

Convert Sales Quotes to Orders

The case study states:

The company often receives a higher quantity of produce items than ordered because vendors allow for spoilage/damage during transit.

The company wants to allow over-receipt only for produce but not for non-produce items.

In Dynamics 365 Business Central, this requirement is handled by Over-Receipt Codes:

You define a code with a tolerance percentage (e.g., 5% or 10%).

The code can be assigned to specific items (e.g., produce) or vendors.

This allows receiving slightly more than ordered, while blocking over-receipt for other items.

Why not the other options?

B. Payment Tolerance % → relates to differences in payment amounts (e.g., customer underpaying by a few cents), not receiving inventory.

C. Default Deferral Template → used to defer revenue/expense recognition over time, unrelated to item receipt.

D. Dampener Quantity → used in demand planning/MRP to avoid unnecessary changes to supply orders; not for receiving more items.

So the correct configuration is Over-Receipt Code with Tolerance %.

The case study specifies that:

Salespeople manage opportunities/quotes and release orders to the warehouse.

Warehouse staff fulfill orders and complete shipments.

Office/accounting staff are responsible for invoicing (separation of duties).

Therefore, the correct sequence for processing sales orders is:

Add External Document No. to Sales Order

An office employee enters this reference (often the customer’s PO number) before processing.

This step ensures traceability for auditors and aligns with required documentation.

Warehouse employee performs Post and Ship

The warehouse is responsible for picking, packing, and shipping items.

They must post the shipment in Business Central, creating a posted shipment record.

The warehouse does not invoice, since invoicing is the responsibility of the office.

Office employee performs Post and Invoice only

After confirmation that the order shipped, the office staff posts the invoice.

This matches the new division of duties and provides the financial document to the customer.

Why not the other options?

Warehouse performs Post, Ship, and Invoice: Incorrect because invoicing is not the warehouse’s responsibility.

Warehouse performs Post and Invoice only: Wrong, warehouse does not invoice.

Office employee performs Post, Ship, and Invoice: Wrong, because shipping is handled by warehouse.

Warehouse employee changes Posting Date: Not a standard requirement for fulfilling orders in this case.

Process Sales Orders

Post Shipments and Invoices Separately

The scenario mentions that the company needs to properly record received items before invoices arrive.

In Business Central, enabling Expected Cost Posting ensures that receipts (goods received but not invoiced) are reflected in both inventory and the general ledger.

This avoids the need for a manual accrual process (one of the issues in the case study) and satisfies the requirement to record accounting impact for items received but not yet invoiced.

Other options:

A. Standard Costing is unrelated (they need FIFO/average etc. for produce).

B. Automatic Cost Posting just posts automatically but doesn’t address received-not-invoiced.

D. Automatic Cost Adjustment = Always updates inventory values for costing, not expected costs.
