1. 1A new company needs a chart of accounts and payment methods, but no sample transactions. Which creation option provides this starting point?

   1. A. Evaluation - Sample Data
   2. B. Production - Setup Data Only
   3. C. Create New - No Data
   4. D. Advanced Evaluation - Complete Sample Data

   Answer: B

   Explanation: Microsoft describes Production as "with setup data such as a chart of accounts, payment methods, and financial report definitions, but without sample data." It supplies the requested setup without demonstration data.

   Reference: Create new companies in Business Central — Choose the right template > Production - Setup Data Only

2. 2A company closes its fiscal year but must also prevent users from posting ordinary transactions into that year. Which setup controls the permitted posting-date range?

   1. A. New Fiscal Year on Accounting Periods
   2. B. Date Locked on Accounting Periods
   3. C. Allow Posting From and Allow Posting To
   4. D. The fiscal year's Closed checkbox alone

   Answer: C

   Explanation: Microsoft states, "Accounting periods don't control posting dates." The same section identifies Allow Posting From and Allow Posting To on General Ledger Setup and User Setup as posting-date controls.

   Reference: Work with accounting periods and fiscal years — Work with accounting periods and fiscal years > Note on posting dates

3. 3How does FIFO determine the cost assigned to an inventory decrease?

   1. A. It uses the average cost of inventory in the averaging period
   2. B. It uses costs from the earliest inventory receipts first
   3. C. It uses a preset estimated cost and records variances
   4. D. It uses the exact receipt cost of a specifically identified unit

   Answer: B

   Explanation: The FIFO description states, "Inventory valuation assumes that the first items placed in inventory are sold first." This is cost-flow order, distinguishing it from averaging, standard values, and specific-unit cost.

4. 4A user personalizes a page by moving and hiding fields. Who is affected by those personalization changes?

   1. A. Every user in the company
   2. B. Only that user's workspace
   3. C. Every user assigned the same permission set
   4. D. Every user in the environment

   Answer: B

   Explanation: Microsoft states, "Personalization affects only your workspace. It doesn't change how others work." Shared profile customization has a different scope.

5. 5Which permission set must be assigned to a user who creates a new Business Central company?

   1. A. SUPER
   2. B. D365 READ
   3. C. D365 BASIC
   4. D. SECURITY

   Answer: A

   Explanation: The company creation requirement is explicit: "To create a new company, you must be assigned to the Super permission set." The other permission sets do not satisfy that stated prerequisite.

6. 6Which accounting period should have New Fiscal Year selected for a fiscal year that begins in July?

   1. A. Every month in the fiscal year
   2. B. The first month, July
   3. C. Only the final month, June
   4. D. Every quarter-ending month

   Answer: B

   Explanation: Microsoft states, "The New Fiscal Year checkbox should only be selected for the first month of the fiscal year." A July-start fiscal year therefore uses July, irrespective of calendar-year boundaries.

7. 7A serialized high-value unit must carry the exact cost at which that particular unit was received. Which costing method expresses this valuation rule?

   1. A. Standard
   2. B. Average
   3. C. LIFO
   4. D. Specific

   Answer: D

   Explanation: Specific costing is described as "An item's unit cost is the exact cost at which the particular unit was received." This matches the particular tracked unit rather than a preset, average, or receipt-sequence assumption.

   Reference: Design details: Costing methods — Costing methods table > Specific

8. 8A user wants the leftmost identifying columns to remain visible while scrolling horizontally through a list. Which personalization action supports this?

   1. A. Exclude from Quick Entry
   2. B. Show when collapsed
   3. C. Lock editing
   4. D. Set Freeze Pane

   Answer: D

   Explanation: Microsoft explains, "The freeze pane specifies the columns that always appear on the left side of the list, even as you scroll horizontally." The action sets the last column included in that pane.

   Reference: Personalize your workspace — Change the freeze pane in a list to another column

9. 9An organization wants a second company containing the existing company's data to test a business process. Which action on the Companies page supports this?

   1. A. Change the existing company's Display Name
   2. B. Run Create New with the No Data option
   3. C. Use Copy on the existing company
   4. D. Change Company in My Settings

   Answer: C

   Explanation: The documentation states: "On the Companies page, you can use the Copy action to create a second company based on the contents of an existing company." Copy creates the requested data-bearing company; renaming or switching does not.

   Reference: Create new companies in Business Central — Copy a company

10. 10An invoice has a Document Date of March 1 and Posting Date of March 5. Its payment term is 30 days. Which date is the basis for calculating its due date?

    1. A. The March 5 Posting Date
    2. B. The current Work Date
    3. C. The invoice's creation timestamp
    4. D. The March 1 Document Date

    Answer: D

    Explanation: Microsoft states, "The document dates on sales and purchase documents, not their posting dates, are used to calculate due dates for payments." The Document Date controls this calculation.
