About the Exam MB6-898: Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Talent Exam

The question samples call for distinguishing HR processes by purpose and identifying what information supports them. For example, reporting relationships help represent organizational structure, while role skills and qualifications provide criteria for comparing a position with an employee profile. Other scenarios involve tracking employee time-off requests, using self-service for routine HR activities, and routing accommodation requests to appropriate reviewers. Performance-management questions distinguish setting measurable objectives from reviewing results and recording feedback for a defined period. Reporting tasks emphasize choosing comparisons that explain workforce changes, such as hires, departures, and transfers, while limiting exposure of sensitive employee fields. These contexts make it useful to connect a business need to the relevant Dynamics 365 for Talent capability and to consider how employee data supports HR and manager decisions.

  2. BThe system automatically determines every employee's tax liability
  3. CThe system replaces all recruiting activities

Reporting relationships describe management structure and help represent the organization’s supervisory hierarchy. They do not replace tax, recruiting, or compliance decisions.

Question 2

A business wants to compare workforce totals between two dates and understand whether changes came from hires, departures, or transfers. What is a sound reporting approach?

  1. AUse consistent reporting dates and define the workforce movement categories
  2. BCount only employees whose names begin with the same letter
  3. CCombine totals from different periods without recording the dates
  4. DExclude all internal transfers from every report
Show answerCorrect answer: A

Consistent as-of dates and clearly defined movement categories make workforce changes easier to interpret and compare.

  1. ALeave and absence management

Leave and absence management concerns requests and records for time away from work. Candidate sourcing and job evaluation address different HR activities.

  1. AJob competencies and requirements

  3. CTo grant every employee access to all personnel records

Preparation tips

  • Compare employee self-service with manager and HR workflows, and identify which routine tasks belong in each.
  • Practice distinguishing objectives, progress monitoring, and performance review feedback as separate parts of employee performance management.
  • For workforce reporting scenarios, identify the comparison dates and the events—hires, departures, or transfers—that explain headcount changes.
  • Review how role skills and qualifications can be compared with employee-profile information without treating the two records as interchangeable.
  • For accommodation and time-off scenarios, trace the request from submission through tracking or review, noting who needs access to each step.
