Exam MB2-716: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customization and Configuration Practice Test
MB2-716 practice focuses on configuring Dynamics 365 components for business use, especially tables, columns, forms, views, model-driven apps, and security. The question bank’s examples involve choices such as defining grid columns, setting quick-find behavior, creating filtered record lists, and controlling access to rows. These tasks call for understanding how configuration components affect the way users enter, locate, and review data.
Exam overview
About the Exam MB2-716: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customization and Configuration Exam
The available questions also explore business rules for applying logic without code, column requirements that govern data entry, and choice columns for fixed sets of values. Other scenarios address auditing changes to records, selecting the appropriate solution type for managed deployment, and using the sitemap to organize navigation in a model-driven app. Security questions distinguish table privileges assigned through roles from access scope based on organizational hierarchy. Together, these subjects require mapping a user or deployment need to the Dynamics 365 component that controls it—for example, choosing a view for a saved, filtered list rather than changing a table’s search configuration. The question bank reflects these configuration scenarios; its topics should not be read as a statement of official exam coverage.
Sample Practice Questions
Review a selection from this exam's published US Practice Tests practice bank.
A maker wants to define which columns appear in the standard grid for a table when users open it in a model-driven app. Which component should they edit?
Show answer
Correct answer: BA public view defines a reusable set of columns, sorting, and filtering for displaying rows in a grid. Main forms define record details, while the other components serve different purposes.
An administrator needs to restrict which rows a user can access based on the organizational hierarchy, while retaining the table privileges granted by the user's role. Which security-role setting is relevant?
Show answer
Correct answer: ASecurity-role privilege depth determines the scope of rows a user can access for a privilege, such as user, business unit, parent-child business units, or organization scope, depending on the privilege and platform configuration.
An administrator wants a column to be included in the table's search results when users perform a quick find. Which configuration area is most relevant?
Show answer
Correct answer: AThe Quick Find view determines which columns are searched by quick find and can also define columns shown in its results, depending on the experience. Form headers, business-unit structure, and app navigation have different purposes.
In a model-driven Dynamics 365 app, what does a business rule primarily let an administrator do without writing code?
Show answer
Correct answer: ABusiness rules provide declarative form and field logic, such as setting values, showing or hiding fields, and displaying validation messages when conditions are met. They do not replace infrastructure, security, or server-side code.
A custom table contains a column that should be set once when a row is created and then remain unchanged. Which column requirement is designed to enforce that users provide a value at creation time?
Show answer
Correct answer: AA business-required column must have a value for a row to be saved. A recommendation does not impose the same save requirement, and searchability and auditing address different behaviors.
An administrator wants a saved list of active cases with selected columns and a filter condition. What should the administrator configure?
Show answer
Correct answer: AA system view defines a reusable list of records, including filter criteria, displayed columns, and sorting. The other options address security organization, relationship behavior, or form scripting.
A solution maker wants to preserve a record of changes to a row's data so that authorized users can review prior values. Which platform feature should be configured?
Show answer
Correct answer: ADataverse auditing must be enabled at the appropriate levels, such as the environment and table, with relevant columns included as needed. Navigation, process stages, and calculated values do not provide an audit history.
How to use this practice test
Access is free. A practice session presents up to 20 random questions from the 50-question bank, with results shown after the session. Use the questions to check whether you can identify the configuration component or setting that fits each scenario, then revisit any choices you found difficult.
Preparation tips
- Compare forms, views, quick-find configuration, and grid settings; note which one controls data entry, saved lists, search, or displayed columns.
- Review how security-role privileges and organizational hierarchy access scope work together when determining which rows users can access.
- Practice distinguishing business rules, column requirements, choice columns, and auditing by the specific data or behavior each controls.
- Trace managed-solution deployment scenarios and identify how the sitemap structures navigation in a model-driven app.
