🧐 Question
Medium Picking Strategies Picking Strategies Inventory Management Process Optimization	Solve
In a complex SAP WM system, you are configuring picking strategies for a high-volume distribution center that handles various types of goods including perishable items. The warehouse utilizes FIFO (First-In, First-Out), LIFO (Last-In, First-Out), and "shelf life expiration" picking strategies to optimize the flow of goods. You need to implement these strategies correctly based on product type and priority. For perishable goods, ensuring products do not expire is paramount, whereas for non-perishable goods, optimizing space and managing older stock takes precedence. Which configuration ensures that the picking process is optimized according to the type of goods and their respective storage and handling requirements? A: FIFO strategy for non-perishable items, LIFO for high turnover items, and "shelf life expiration" for perishable items. B: LIFO strategy for all items to reduce aisle traffic and handling. C: FIFO strategy for perishable and non-perishable items to simplify warehouse operations. D: "Shelf life expiration" strategy for all items to prioritize the removal of older stock. E: FIFO strategy for perishable items, LIFO for items stored deep within the warehouse, and "shelf life expiration" strategy for high-value items. F: LIFO strategy for perishable items, FIFO for items with long shelf life, and "shelf life expiration" for items nearing their expiration date.
Medium Storage Unit Management Storage Unit Management Batch Management Inventory Control	Solve
A warehouse is set up in SAP WM to use both Storage Unit Management and Batch Management. You are tasked with configuring the system to ensure batch traceability within storage units while maintaining efficient space utilization. Consider a scenario where a batch-managed product is delivered and needs to be stored in a storage unit that already contains the same product but from a different batch. You need to decide how the SAP WM system should handle this situation in terms of storage bin management and storage unit management. How should the system be configured to allow batch-specific placements without losing track of individual batches within the same product type and storage unit? A: Configure the storage type to allow mixed storage and activate batch level at the storage unit level. B: Configure the storage type to disallow mixed storage but not activate batch level at the storage type or storage unit level. C: Allow mixed storage in the storage type and do not maintain batch information at the storage unit level. D: Disallow mixed storage and activate batch level at both the storage type and storage unit levels. E: Allow mixed storage and set up batch management at the bin level, not on the storage unit. F: Disallow mixed storage, maintain batch information at the storage type level but not at the storage unit level.
Medium Warehouse Movement Types Movement Types Transfer Orders Process Efficiency	Solve
In SAP WM, understanding and configuring the appropriate movement types is critical for efficient warehouse operations. A scenario arises where a company needs to handle returns efficiently, especially those that need quality inspection before they can be restocked or disposed of. The company utilizes movement type 101 for standard goods receipts and needs to set up a new process for handling returns. You are tasked with configuring a movement type for returns that facilitates their transfer to a quality inspection area before any restocking or disposal decisions are made. Which movement type configuration and subsequent process should you set up to handle these returns efficiently while ensuring they undergo necessary inspections? A: Use movement type 102 for returns, creating a direct transfer to the quality inspection area without a separate transfer order. B: Use movement type 122 for returns, automatically generating a transfer order to move items to the quality inspection area. C: Use movement type 653 for returns, setting up an automatic transfer order to the quality inspection area with system-directed putaway. D: Use movement type 101 for returns, with manual creation of a separate transfer order for each return item needing inspection. E: Use movement type 202 for returns, requiring manual intervention to create transfer orders for inspection. F: Use movement type 107 for preliminary returns, followed by movement type 109 to finalize the move after inspection.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment SAP WM 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.

SAP WM Hiring Test FAQs

Can I combine multiple skills into one custom assessment?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

Do you have any anti-cheating or proctoring features in place?

We have the following anti-cheating features in place:

Non-googleable questions
IP proctoring
Screen proctoring
Web proctoring
Webcam proctoring
Plagiarism detection
Secure browser
Copy paste protection

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.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
