Exchange Rate Fluctuations
Invoice Management
Try practice test
Your organization, headquartered in the US, frequently engages in intercompany transactions with a subsidiary in Europe. At the beginning of the month, a purchase order of €500,000 was made from the subsidiary. The initial exchange rate was 1 EUR = 1.20 USD. However, by the time of invoice payment, the exchange rate had changed to 1 EUR = 1.15 USD.

Considering your organization's payment term is Net 30 days with a 2% early payment discount if paid within 15 days and the payment was made on the 12th day, calculate the USD amount saved due to both early payment and the change in exchange rate.

Try practice test
You are a Dynamics 365 Finance consultant at a large multinational corporation. The company is implementing a new subsidiary and has the following requirements:

1. They need to import legacy data from the subsidiary's previous ERP system.
2. The CFO of the new subsidiary needs to have access to high-level financial reports but should not have access to employee-specific salary details.

A: Use Data Management workspace for data import, assign the CFO the "Chief Financial Officer" security role, and set up an additional ledger with Ledger Setup.

C: Use the Data Management workspace with relevant data entities for import, provide the CFO with the "Financial Reporter" role and limit HR data access, and set up a secondary ledger in Ledger Setup for the adjusted ledger.
D: Use RapidStart services for data import, provide the CFO with only "General Ledger Manager" access, and set up the subsidiary as a separate legal entity.
E: Directly use SQL Server Integration Services for data import, assign all financial roles to the CFO, and maintain dual ledgers manually through journal entries.

Intercompany Transactions
Intercompany Setup
Ledger Posting
Data Sharing
Try practice test
You are a Dynamics 365 Finance Functional Consultant working with a conglomerate that has multiple subsidiary companies. These companies frequently engage in intercompany transactions, purchasing goods and services from each other. The CFO has expressed concerns over the current manual process of recording these transactions and has approached you for a solution.

The conglomerate has the following requirements:

1. When Company A sells a product to Company B, the transaction should automatically generate a sales invoice in Company A and a purchase order in Company B.
2. For taxation purposes, each subsidiary company must maintain its ledger. However, the parent company should be able to view consolidated financial statements.
3. Data related to product details, customer, and vendor information should be shared across all companies to avoid redundancy and ensure consistency.

Given these requirements, how should you configure Dynamics 365 Finance to meet the conglomerate's needs?
A: Enable intercompany accounting and manually create corresponding purchase orders and invoices for intercompany transactions. Set up individual ledgers for each company and use the financial consolidation tool for consolidated reports. Use data entities to export and import shared data across companies.
B: Set up intercompany trading relationships to automate the creation of corresponding transactions. Assign individual ledger accounts to each subsidiary while maintaining a master ledger at the parent company. Use cross-company data sharing for shared information.
C: Use a single ledger for all companies to simplify the consolidation process. Manually adjust the ledger for intercompany transactions. Rely on data duplication across companies for shared information to ensure data integrity.
D: Implement third-party software specifically designed for intercompany transactions. Integrate this software with Dynamics 365 Finance. Use separate databases for each company and develop custom scripts for data synchronization.
E: Activate intercompany process automation in Dynamics 365 Finance. Create separate legal entities for each company, defining their individual ledgers. Use the Common Data Service (CDS) platform to ensure consistent data across all entities.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance Functional Consultant Test in your hiring process is that it is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. In other words: you want to use the test to eliminate the candidates who do poorly on the test, not to select the candidates who come out at the top. While they are super valuable, pre-employment tests do not paint the entire picture of a candidate’s abilities, knowledge, and motivations. Multiple easy questions are more predictive of a candidate's ability than fewer hard questions. Harder questions are often "trick" based questions, which do not provide any meaningful signal about the candidate's skillset.

Read more about the proctoring features.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.
