Microsoft Dynamics 365 Fundamentals Finance and Operations Apps (ERP) Exam Guide
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Fundamentals (ERP), associated with Exam MB-920, was designed to validate beginner-level understanding of Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, including financial models, operational processes, legal entities, manufacturing, warehousing, and Microsoft integrations. The important decision for readers now is whether they are researching a historical exam or seeking a current Dynamics credential: Microsoft retired MB-920 on December 31, 2025, at 11:59 PM Central Standard Time. This guide explains the former scope, useful preparation evidence, and the next steps for choosing a relevant learning path.
Can you still take the MB-920 exam?
No. Microsoft retired Exam MB-920 on December 31, 2025, at 11:59 PM Central Standard Time. You should not spend money on a new appointment or rely on old scheduling pages that still describe the exam as available.
The retirement applies to the exam associated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Fundamentals (ERP). Microsoft also states that the Dynamics 365 Fundamentals certifications are deprecated. This makes MB-920 useful as a record of foundational subject coverage, but not as a current exam target.
If you already earned the certification, Microsoft says it does not expire and remains on your Microsoft Learn transcript. If you have not earned it, use the historical objectives to understand the product family, then review Microsoft’s current Dynamics 365 credentials rather than attempting to register for MB-920.
Do not confuse MB-920 with MB-300
MB-300: Microsoft Dynamics 365: Core Finance and Operations was a different, more implementation-oriented exam. Microsoft lists MB-300 as retired on February 29, 2024. Its technical objectives and percentages should not be presented as the blueprint for MB-920.
What knowledge did MB-920 validate?
MB-920 validated foundational knowledge of how Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management support an organization’s financial model and operating processes. It tested product understanding and business scenarios rather than deep configuration, development, or implementation work.
The exam was intended for people beginning their journey with Finance and Supply Chain Management solutions. Microsoft identified the audience broadly around understanding how the applications can unify business processes, manage multiple legal entities, support finance and operations, and integrate with other Microsoft applications.
That audience included business users, business leaders, business owners, students, aspiring functional consultants, and administrators who needed a shared vocabulary before moving toward a role-based credential. MB-920 was not a prerequisite for the more advanced certifications.
What it did not prove
Passing a fundamentals exam would not by itself demonstrate that a candidate could design a production implementation, configure a complex legal-entity structure, write extensions, migrate data, troubleshoot integrations, or administer a live enterprise environment. Those capabilities belong to deeper role-based study and practical work.
Which business areas were in scope?
The historical scope connected finance and supply chain activities instead of treating them as isolated products. Prepare by tracing how a business requirement moves through a process, which application capability supports it, and what information or outcome the organization receives.
For Dynamics 365 Finance, Microsoft’s introductory learning path covered general ledger, cash and bank management, tax, accounts payable, accounts receivable, credit and collections, budgeting, fixed assets, cost accounting, and electronic invoicing. Learn the purpose of each area and its relationship to financial control rather than memorizing menu labels.
For Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, the learning path covered inventory and warehouse management, master planning, procurement and sourcing, product information management, production control, intercompany trade, and transportation management. These areas form a useful process map for revision.
The exam objectives also included business operations such as warehousing and manufacturing. Production control material described a lifecycle beginning with a production order, batch order, or kanban and ending with a finished manufactured item ready for a customer or another production phase.
How should you connect the topics?
Use scenarios rather than disconnected definitions. For example, a manufactured item may require product information, a bill of materials or formula, inventory availability, planning, production activity, warehouse movement, and financial posting. The point of the exercise is to identify the business relationship, not to reproduce an implementation procedure.
What should you study first?
Start with the official Microsoft Learn learning path for finance and operations apps. Microsoft labels it beginner level, lists no prerequisites, and positions it for business users, functional consultants, and administrators. It is the most appropriate foundation for a candidate who knows ERP concepts but has limited Dynamics 365 exposure.
Begin with navigation and the basic ERP explanation. The introductory module teaches learners to describe enterprise resource planning, identify AI-tool use cases including Copilot and agents, and navigate the finance-and-operations user interface. That foundation prevents later product terms from becoming a list of unexplained features.
Then study Finance and Supply Chain Management as connected process families. Finish with the modules for production control and the related application overviews only after the core ERP and finance-and-supply-chain concepts are clear.
A sensible learning order
Use this sequence: ERP purpose and common features; application navigation; Dynamics 365 Finance; Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management; production control; cross-application relationships; documentation and help resources.
The learning path also contains introductory modules for Commerce, Human Resources, and Project Operations. Read these for ecosystem awareness, but keep Finance and Supply Chain Management as the center of historical MB-920 preparation.
How should you use Microsoft Learn content?
Treat each Microsoft Learn module as a source of explanations and process context, not as a script to memorize. After each unit, close the page and write what business problem the capability addresses, which users would care about it, and what information flows into or out of the process.
The official introductory module includes a module assessment. Use it to detect terminology gaps, then return to the relevant unit and explain the concept in your own words. A correct answer without an explanation is a weak revision signal.
The historical study guide also referenced a free practice assessment and an exam sandbox. These resources are useful for understanding question presentation and the testing interface when available, but they do not replace learning the product concepts. Practice questions should reveal uncertainty, not become a substitute for the official objectives.
Build a two-column study record
In the first column, record the capability or process. In the second, write its business purpose, a related process, and one distinction from a neighboring capability. For example, separate procurement and sourcing from inventory management, and distinguish general ledger responsibilities from accounts payable or accounts receivable responsibilities.
What practical experience is worth adding?
Hands-on exposure can make the historical objectives easier to understand, but it should support conceptual study rather than turn into an improvised implementation project. If Microsoft provides an appropriate Finance and Supply Chain Management trial or learning environment, use it to explore navigation, records, process relationships, and terminology.
Do not assume that seeing a screen proves mastery. For every feature you inspect, ask which business role uses it, what decision it supports, what data it depends on, and how it relates to finance or operations. If no environment is available, use the official training and product documentation to reconstruct the same process on paper.
The finance-and-operations documentation is organized for end users, developers, and IT professionals. It includes implementation, deployment, integrations, finance, supply chain management, reporting, development, administration, and servicing material. Select only the pages that answer a specific question raised by your study record.
A useful scenario exercise
Choose a simple business such as a manufacturer selling finished products. Map the legal entity, financial model, product information, procurement, inventory, planning, production, warehouse activity, customer transaction, and resulting financial information. Mark each step as a Finance, Supply Chain Management, or shared-process concern.
How did the historical exam blueprint affect preparation?
The supplied official research identifies the skills measured and the subject areas, but it does not provide a complete, reliable set of domain percentages for reproduction here. Do not use percentages from MB-300 or from an unrelated current exam as if they belonged to MB-920.
The historical study guide described the audience and assessed capabilities around Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. It also noted that most questions covered generally available features, while commonly used preview features could appear. That distinction favors stable product concepts over speculative feature memorization.
Because MB-920 is retired, blueprint percentages would not change a scheduling decision today. For historical study, use the official study guide’s skills-measured section as the controlling checklist and confirm the date or version attached to any archived copy.
Why blueprint copying can mislead
Exam objectives change, product capabilities change, and similarly named Finance and Operations exams assess different levels of work. A preparation page that lists unsupported weights, current-looking delivery claims, or another exam’s objectives can send a candidate toward the wrong material. Match every objective to the exact exam code before studying it.
What mistakes should candidates avoid?
The most damaging mistake is treating an old MB-920 page as a current registration notice. Check the official Microsoft Learn status first. Once retirement is confirmed, stop looking for an appointment and redirect the effort toward current credentials or product learning.
A second mistake is studying only feature names. Fundamentals questions are better approached through business purpose: financial control, supply availability, warehouse execution, production, planning, legal-entity management, and integration across the Microsoft ecosystem.
A third mistake is overemphasizing implementation detail. MB-920 was described as a fundamentals-level exam, not a deep technical implementation assessment. Do not spend most of your preparation on code, advanced configuration, data migration, or lifecycle management unless a separate current credential requires it.
Finally, avoid exam dumps and leaked-question claims. They are not a trustworthy learning method, do not establish current exam coverage, and cannot guarantee a pass. Use official objectives, training, documentation, and legitimate practice assessment resources instead.
A quick quality check for study notes
Remove any note that lacks an official source, mixes MB-920 with MB-300, presents a bare percentage without its named domain, or promises that memorization will guarantee success. Replace it with a business question and a link to the relevant Microsoft Learn material.
What did the historical delivery process involve?
The general Microsoft registration process directed candidates from the certification or exam details page to the scheduling provider. Microsoft’s guidance said candidates taking a certification independently or through a training program should select Pearson VUE, while students or candidates taking an exam through an academic process could use Certiport when that option was presented.
For available Microsoft exams, the registration guidance described online and test-center options when offered by the provider. Online candidates were responsible for the system pre-check and a compliant testing area; a test center provided a pre-configured environment. These general rules do not make retired MB-920 available.
The historical MB-920 study guide stated that a score of 700 or greater was required to pass. That is a historical exam fact, not a current appointment instruction. The same guide explained that candidates could request an additional 30 minutes if the exam was not available in their preferred language, subject to Microsoft’s process.
What should a candidate do before scheduling any replacement exam?
Open the current certification page, verify the exam code and status, review the current skills measured, check available languages and providers, and request accommodations before scheduling if needed. Microsoft’s general guidance also says exams can be scheduled no more than 90 days in advance when registration is available.
What is a practical study roadmap?
Use a staged roadmap that moves from orientation to process understanding and then to decision-making. Since MB-920 is retired, this roadmap is best used to understand the historical foundation or to prepare for a related current Dynamics role, after checking that role’s own official objectives.
Stage one is orientation. Read the certification description and study-guide audience profile, learn the difference between Finance and Supply Chain Management, and define whether your goal is business-user literacy, functional consulting, administration, or a later role-based certification.
Stage two is core process study. Complete the relevant Microsoft Learn modules, create a Finance and Supply Chain Management process map, and review the vocabulary of financial operations, inventory, procurement, planning, warehousing, manufacturing, and legal entities.
Stage three is application context. Use documentation or a permitted learning environment to connect records and processes. Investigate only the feature details needed to answer questions raised by your map.
Stage four is verification. Take the available module assessments or practice assessment, revisit incorrect areas, and explain each major capability without looking at the source. Do not schedule MB-920; verify the current credential path instead.
A compact revision checklist
You should be able to explain ERP in business terms; distinguish Dynamics 365 Finance from Supply Chain Management; describe core finance processes; outline procurement, inventory, warehouse, planning, and production relationships; explain why multiple legal entities matter; identify the role of integrations; and recognize where Commerce, Human Resources, Project Operations, Copilot, and agents fit into the broader applications landscape.
Which credential should you pursue next?
There is no single replacement decision that can be made from the retired MB-920 page alone. Choose according to the work you want to perform, then use Microsoft’s current credentials catalogue and the linked role guidance to identify the applicable certification or Applied Skill.
For finance-focused work, investigate the current Dynamics 365 Finance pathway. For supply-chain work, investigate the current Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management pathway. For development, solution architecture, business analysis, or administration, compare the role descriptions rather than assuming a fundamentals exam is required.
Microsoft’s role guidance lists role-oriented options including Dynamics 365 Finance Functional Consultant Associate, Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Functional Consultant Associate, Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Apps Developer Associate, and solution-architect credentials. Availability and requirements should be checked on the current Microsoft Learn pages before committing to a study plan.
Make the decision from job tasks
Write down the tasks you expect to perform: analyze finance requirements, configure supply-chain processes, develop extensions, support users, or design a solution. Select the credential whose official audience and measured skills match those tasks. Keep the historical MB-920 material as foundation, not as proof that you meet a current role-based requirement.
Where should you verify the information?
Use Microsoft Learn as the authority for retirement status, current credentials, exam objectives, registration rules, accommodations, and available delivery options. Archived community answers can clarify how candidates were advised in the past, but they should not override the official exam page or study guide.
The most useful starting points are the historical MB-920 study guide, the beginner finance-and-operations learning path, the introductory finance-and-operations module, the Finance and Operations documentation, and Microsoft’s role-based credentials guidance.
Before publishing or acting on any preparation advice, check whether the page describes MB-920, MB-300, or a current exam. Confirm the exam code, status, objective version, and registration link together. This simple check prevents most serious errors in old ERP certification content.
Recommended next actions
First, confirm that you are not trying to schedule MB-920. Second, choose Finance, Supply Chain Management, development, administration, or architecture as your direction. Third, complete the relevant beginner learning content. Fourth, open the current role-based credential page and rebuild your study plan from its official skills measured section.
Conclusion
MB-920 remains useful for understanding the foundational relationship between Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, but it is not a current exam you can schedule. Treat the historical objectives as orientation, use Microsoft Learn for product and process knowledge, and make your next certification decision from a current role and exam page. The safest preparation habit is simple: verify the exact exam code and status first, then study only the official objectives that match the credential you intend to pursue.
