HOTSPOT -
A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to sell consumer electronics to retailers across North America.
An inventory manager needs to view purchase orders by different periods of time for all warehouses.
If there are insufficient orders for expected demand, the manager must create new purchase or transfer orders to meet the demand versus the current on-hand inventory that is already allocated for future demand.
The company also needs to keep a surplus of 5 percent of inventory for unexpected demand.
You need to identify a solution to meet these requirements.
Which feature should you use for each requirement? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

1. The Supply Schedule form in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management provides a comprehensive view of supply (including on-hand inventory, purchase orders, and production orders) alongside demand (such as sales orders or forecasts). 2. Period net supply aligns best with calculating what’s available versus what’s needed for next month, allowing the manager to adjust for the 5% surplus by ensuring the net supply exceeds demand by that margin.

Pegging: In master planning, pegging refers to the process of linking (or "pegging") supply (e.g., on-hand inventory, purchase orders, production orders) to specific demand (e.g., sales orders, forecasts, dependent requirements). It shows what supply is reserved or allocated to meet which demand, ensuring traceability. Where It’s Seen: Pegging details are visible in the Pegging section of the Planned Orders form (Master Planning > Planned Orders > View > Pegging) or in tools like the Supply Schedule. Period-end pegged inventory is a more accurate answer.
