MB-335, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Functional Consultant Expert, retired on June 30, 2026. Candidates can no longer schedule the exam, so older articles that present MB-335 as the active advanced supply-chain credential need to be reframed. The underlying manufacturing, planning, product, and production-control knowledge still has practical value. The current Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management functional-consulting path is centered on Microsoft MB-330 and the Microsoft Supply Chain Management Functional Consultant Associate credential. MB-330 covers product information, inventory, sales and procurement, warehouse and transportation management, master planning, asset management,…

The Microsoft MB-800 exam remains the current Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Functional Consultant exam in October 2026. Microsoft updated the English objectives on June 30, 2026, and the current role includes Business Central setup, financial configuration, sales and purchasing, and operational processing. The audience profile also now explicitly includes configuring and using Copilot capabilities and built-in agents. MB-800 is a functional-consultant exam, which means the goal is to translate business requirements into Business Central configuration. Strong candidates understand accounting and operational workflows, can configure companies and permissions, can migrate…

Microsoft MB-500 remains an active exam for developers who customize and extend Dynamics 365 finance and operations apps. The strongest preparation is not a generic coding plan. It is a disciplined understanding of the platform’s extension model, data framework, security, integrations, testing, performance, and application lifecycle. Know the developer role before studying features An MB-500 developer works inside an enterprise application environment where changes must survive updates, respect business data, integrate with other systems, and remain supportable. That makes design choices important. Before writing code, understand whether the requirement can…

The Microsoft MB-300 exam once assessed Core Finance and Operations skills in Dynamics 365, including system configuration, data migration, administration, testing and application lifecycle management. Microsoft retired MB-300 on February 29, 2024. It is no longer a bookable credential target in October 2026, even though older courses and practice guides may still describe useful enterprise application concepts. An active Dynamics 365 consultant must instead choose a role-specific path. Finance, supply chain, and finance-and-operations development have different current assessments and workplace responsibilities. This guide preserves transferable MB-300 knowledge, clarifies what changed…

MB-310 remains the active exam for Microsoft Certified: Dynamics 365 Finance Functional Consultant Associate in 2026. The role is not simply “someone who knows the Finance menus.” A functional consultant analyzes financial business requirements, translates them into business processes and system configuration, supports testing and implementation, and helps the organization use Dynamics 365 Finance in a way that reflects accounting and operational requirements. Microsoft updated the English skills outline on August 14, 2026. Candidates preparing for Microsoft MB-310 should be comfortable with financial management, accounts receivable, credit and collections, accounts…

Microsoft retired MB-300: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Core Finance and Operations on February 29, 2024. Any article that still advises candidates to hurry and take MB-300 before it disappears is now misleading. The useful question in 2026 is what MB-300 taught, which skills remain important in Dynamics 365 implementations, and where a candidate should focus now. MB-300 acted as a shared implementation foundation for Finance and Supply Chain Management consultants. It covered configuration, data management, testing, support, workflows, security, lifecycle practices, and integration awareness. Those responsibilities did not vanish with the…

Microsoft MB-240, the Dynamics 365 Field Service Functional Consultant exam, retired on June 30, 2026. It should no longer be presented as an active certification target. The useful content now is the field-service capability behind the retired exam: configuring work orders, scheduling resources, managing inventory, enabling mobile technicians, integrating connected data, and improving service operations. What the retired MB-240 exam was really measuring MB-240 focused on turning service requirements into a working Dynamics 365 Field Service implementation. That required more than knowing menu locations. A consultant needed to understand how…

Microsoft MB-230 remains an active exam for the Dynamics 365 Customer Service Functional Consultant Associate role. The best preparation is to understand the service-management process end to end: how customer issues become cases, how agents receive the right knowledge and context, how routing and queues distribute work, how entitlements and SLAs shape commitments, and how analytics reveal whether the operation is improving. Start with the case lifecycle Create a simple support scenario. A customer contacts the organization, a case is created, classified, prioritized, routed, worked, escalated if necessary, resolved, and…

Microsoft MB-220, the Dynamics 365 Marketing Functional Consultant exam, retired on November 30, 2024. The later MB-280 customer-experience path also retired in 2026. That means MB-220 should now be treated as historical certification context, not as an exam to prepare for. The useful work is to carry its durable marketing-automation skills into the current Dynamics 365 Customer Insights – Journeys product. Keep the customer-journey operating model The product still revolves around understanding audiences, triggering interactions, orchestrating journeys, measuring behavior, and connecting marketing activity to business outcomes. A current practitioner should…

MB-210 is no longer an active Microsoft exam. Microsoft retired Dynamics 365 Sales Functional Consultant on November 30, 2024, and later retired the Microsoft MB-280 Customer Experience Analyst path on July 31, 2026. Microsoft has introduced the beta AB-210 path for Dynamics 365 Sales AI Consultant Associate, which shifts the role toward AI-enhanced seller workflows, Copilot, agents, secure data access, and lead-to-cash process design. That makes older Microsoft MB-210 preparation material historical rather than current. The retired exam is still useful for understanding Dynamics 365 Sales foundations such as leads,…

Microsoft MB-920, Dynamics 365 Fundamentals (ERP), retired on December 31, 2025. It should no longer be treated as an active certification exam. The underlying ERP concepts remain useful, especially for people deciding whether to specialize in Business Central, finance, supply chain, commerce, or related Dynamics 365 work. Keep the ERP foundation, retire the exam checklist MB-920 introduced the purpose of enterprise resource planning: connecting finance, purchasing, inventory, supply chain, operations, and business data so that transactions are controlled and visible across the organization. Those concepts are still relevant. The retired…

MB-910 is no longer an active Microsoft exam. Microsoft retired Dynamics 365 Fundamentals (CRM) on December 31, 2025, along with the MB-910 exam. That means older material describing MB-910 as an entry point candidates can still schedule is now outdated, even though the customer-relationship concepts behind the exam remain useful. The retired Microsoft MB-910 covered the purpose and capabilities of Dynamics 365 customer engagement applications, including sales, customer service, field service, marketing-related capabilities, shared platform concepts, reporting, and how Microsoft business applications support customer processes. It was broad by design…

Microsoft updated the DP-420 exam on October 6, 2026 and renamed the certification Azure Cosmos DB AI Developer Associate, replacing the former Azure Cosmos DB Developer Specialty title. The exam code is unchanged. Its current scope extends distributed database development into AI retrieval, RAG, agent memory and Microsoft Fabric integration. The new direction still expects strong Azure Cosmos DB engineering: data models, partitioning, SDK use, querying, security, performance, scalability, and cost. What changes is the application context. Candidates will also be expected to understand Azure Cosmos DB as a system…

Microsoft AZ-104 is best understood as an operations exam, not a tour of Azure products. Microsoft’s current study guide describes the Azure Administrator role across identity and governance, storage, compute, virtual networking, and monitoring. The measured skills were updated on April 17, 2026, so candidates preparing now should use the current outline rather than older study material built around previous service details. The job behind the exam is broad because an Azure administrator sits at the point where infrastructure becomes operational. A virtual machine must be secured, connected, monitored, backed…

Microsoft AZ-120 remains the specialist exam for professionals who plan and administer Microsoft Azure for SAP workloads. It is not a general Azure administration test and it is not a general SAP functional exam. The difficult part is the intersection: translating SAP availability, performance, network, security, and operations requirements into an Azure design that can be deployed and supported safely. Start with workload requirements before choosing Azure services Identify the SAP landscape, database platform, size, latency sensitivity, availability targets, recovery objectives, maintenance constraints, and integration dependencies. Then map those requirements…
