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.<\/p>\n
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 exam’s question style and exact objective list are not a current target.<\/p>\n
Understand why organizations need a chart of accounts, journals, receivables, payables, budgets, fixed assets, cash and bank processes, tax or VAT handling where applicable, and financial reporting. Even non-accounting specialists benefit from understanding how operational transactions eventually affect the ledger.<\/p>\n
Study customers, vendors, products, inventory, warehouses, purchasing, sales, fulfillment, planning, and returns as one flow. ERP value comes from connecting these activities. A purchasing decision changes inventory; inventory changes fulfillment; fulfillment changes invoicing; invoicing changes financial position.<\/p>\n
For many learners, Business Central offers a practical route from fundamentals into implementation. The active Microsoft MB-800 path focuses on configuring Business Central as a functional consultant. ExamSnap’s MB-800 certification roadmap<\/a> is a useful next-step guide if that role matches your goals.<\/p>\n If you prefer accounting and financial control, build deeper finance skills. If you prefer operations, learn procurement, inventory, planning, warehousing, and fulfillment. If you like customer-facing operations, explore the Dynamics 365 applications that support service, sales, and field work. A retired fundamentals badge should not determine your long-term path.<\/p>\n ERP data is sensitive and interconnected. Understand master data quality, transaction integrity, role-based access, approvals, auditability, and why segregation of duties matters. A process that is fast but cannot be controlled or reconciled is not a good ERP process.<\/p>\n Analytics and dashboards only become trustworthy when the underlying process is consistent. Practice asking which transaction created a number, which dimension or category explains it, and who is responsible for correcting it. That habit is valuable across every Dynamics 365 ERP product.<\/p>\n Create a simple company that buys an item, receives it, stores it, sells it, ships it, invoices the customer, pays the vendor, receives customer payment, and reviews the financial result. You can model this on paper or in a trial environment. The important part is understanding how each step affects the next.<\/p>\nSpecialization should follow the business process you want to own<\/h2>\n

Reporting depends on clean transactional design<\/h2>\n
