You must ensure that the firepit product is available for sale. How should the product be released?

A company implements Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management and configures the system to support process manufacturing.
The company manufactures pain-relieving lotions. Several of the primary ingredients are delivered at different concentrations depending on the ingredient and vendor ingredient A is the primary active ingredient in the lotion. IngredientB is used as a compensating ingredient.
You need to ensure that the system is set up to support the manufacturing process.
Solution: Create a dimension-based product master with variants and use the trade agreements to specify the different pricing.
Does the solution meet the goal?
The solution does not meet the goal. Here is the explanation:
Create a product master for the lotion and release it to the relevant legal entities. On the Product dimension groups page, select Constraint-based configuration as the configuration technology, and select the configuration dimension. On the Released product details page, select Configurable on the Engineer tab.
Create a constraint-based product configuration model for the lotion and add it as a version to the product master. On the Constraint-based product configuration model details page, add attributes, constraints, subcomponents, BOM lines, and route operations to define the features and structure of the lotion. For example, you can add an attribute for ingredient A and specify its concentration as a value. You can also add constraints to limit the combinations of attribute values that are allowed.
Create a price model for the lotion and link it to the product configuration model. On the Price models page, add price components and specify how they are calculated based on attributes, subcomponents, BOM lines, or route operations. For example, you can add a price component for ingredient A and specify different prices for different concentrations.
Configure products on sales orders, sales quotations, purchase orders, or production orders by using the Product configuration models page. You can select values for attributes and see how they affect the price of the lotion. You can also view the price details and see how each price component contributes to the total price.
The solution in the question is not correct, because it does not involve constraint-based product configuration or price models. Creating a dimension-based product master with variants and using trade agreements to specify different pricing would not allow you to handle different concentrations of ingredients or calculate prices based on attributes.

A manufacturing company uses master planning in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
The production planner increases the lead time of an item. On the next master planning output the planner receives a cancel action message on existing purchase orders. The message includes a suggested earlier date for the planned purchase orders.
The demand for the item has not changed since the original purchase order was placed. Dynamic negative days is not used.
You need to resolve the issue.
What should you do?
A company produces paints and assembles bicycle frames.
You must account for paint drying time before assembly operations can begin.
You need to set up the operation to encompass queue times.
Which two options can you use? Each correct answer presents pad of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
To set up the operation to encompass queue times, you should do the following:
The other options are not correct, because they do not involve queue times. Building capabilities for each resource related to color would allow you to assign resources based on their color proficiency, but it would not account for paint drying time. Entering a value in the transit time on the painting operation would indicate how long it takes to move the painted bicycle frames from one work center to another, but it would not include the waiting time before or after the movement. Making a resource group for each size and color and assigning that group to the operation would allow you to group resources that have similar characteristics and can be used interchangeably in production, but it would not affect the queue times.

A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for Process manufacturing.
You are reviewing the planned production orders for the next two weeks. There are several production orders for the same product. One order is scheduled to run the week after another order.
You need to optimize the planned production orders.
