Microsoft MB-700 Practice Test - Questions Answers, Page 28

Box 1: Business process modeler Business process modeler (BPM) in Microsoft Dynamics Lifecycle Services (LCS) is a tool that you can use to create, view, and modify repeatable implementations that are based on business process libraries. BPM helps you align your business processes with industry-standard processes that are described by the American Productivity & Quality Center (APQC). You can perform fit-gap analysis between your business requirements and the default processes in Finance and Operations apps.

Additionally, you can add new business processes that aren't already defined.

BPM is compatible with the following products:

Microsoft Word – You can generate documentation for business processes.

Microsoft Visio – You can export business process maps to Visio files.

Note: Vendors and purchasing As customers purchase packages, Margie's Travel can claim rebates with the providing vendor for every package sold. The rebates are claimed quarterly, and internal workflows have been established for approval prior to vendor submission. The workflows for package offerings eligible for rebates can be complex. User2 has created Visio diagrams for the associated approval processes.

Box 2: Regression suite automation tool (RSAT The Regression suite automation tool (RSAT) significantly reduces the time and cost of user acceptance testing (UAT) of Finance and Operations apps. UAT is typically required before you take a Microsoft application update, or before you apply custom code and configurations to your production environment. RSAT lets functional power users record business tasks by using Task recorder and then convert the recordings into a suite of automated tests, without having to write source code.

Note: The accounts receivable and accounts payable departments are unclear about the workflows associated with the rebate process. User2 must ensure that representatives from each department validate that they have tested their respective steps in the overall process. Testing feedback must be communicated to User2.

Box 1: Corporate libraries

Note: The infrastructure team must move the code for the loyalty program to test environment.

It's important to note that you can browse a Business process modeler (BPM) library that is a global library or a corporate library. However, before you can edit and work with a BPM library, it must be part of your project in Microsoft Dynamics Lifecycle Services (LCS). Libraries that are distributed by Microsoft appear under Global libraries, whereas libraries that are published by your organization appear under Corporate libraries.

Box 2: Create business process Margie's Travel learns that the loyalty program across multiple countries is not a standard industry process and is not a standard feature in Dynamics 365 Finance.

There are several ways to author a BPM library. You can do so from scratch either building directly in the client or by importing an Excel template.

Box 1: Consolidation company

Eliminations can be reported in multiple ways:

* A separate company can be created and used to manually determine and post elimination transactions. This company can be used in the consolidation process or in financial reporting.

* Elimination rules can be set up in the system.

* The accounts and financial dimensions that are used to determine intercompany activity can be filtered on a row definition or column definition in Financial reporting, and full drill-down capabilities can be used.

Box 2: Financial reporting

There are multiple options for consolidating data:

* Financial reporting – This option enables consolidation of transactions and balances, and can be generated at any time. Multiple levels of hierarchies can be created, and multiple reporting currencies can be viewed.

* Consolidate online – This option consolidates daily balances by the selected accounts and dimensions, and stores them in a consolidation company.

* Consolidate with import – This option imports balances into a consolidation company.

Export company balances Note: The CEO is considering the acquisition of additional companies in the same countries as the current companies. The consolidation structure may change within the first 90 days of go-live.

Margie's does not want to finalize the consolidation structure for a hard-close at month's end until this has been finalized.

Box 1: Power Apps app Customers who sign up for add-on Jamaica excursions bring friends who have not signed up ahead of time. The sales representatives record the customer information on paper, take payment, and then enter the information into the system later. The information is frequently inaccurate and creates discrepancies.

Box 2: Common Data Model Dynamics 365 common data model (CDM) is designed to simplify the data integration and management across business processes and applications. Microsoft introduced CDM as an integral part PowerApps offering.

The good news is that Dynamics 365 CDM enables apps to easily integrate and share data even without custom and extensive integration.

Note: In Jamaica, employees use SoftwareC, a homegrown application based on spreadsheets. Local sales representatives use pen and paper in the field.

New customers in Jamaica must be reviewed and approved due to frequent customer data discrepancies. The sales representatives in the field will enter information that must be routed to validate against existing data.
