Question 540
A project uses free-form customer identifiers instead of the established customer master and creates duplicate contacts. A targeted trial still reproduces the original gap after the team attempted this change: Reference established master data entities instead of duplicating their identity in a custom table. Which repair directly addresses the remaining defect?
- Remove unsafe direct ledger writes and invoke the correct supported posting integration point
- Replace duplicate identity fields with the right master-data relationship and migrate references carefully
- Replace unstructured labels with supported dimension handling and validate the posting mappings
- Integrate the documented number-series logic and correct its setup rather than incrementing manual counters
Explanation
Correct Answer
B:Replace duplicate identity fields with the right master-data relationship and migrate references carefully. This directly addresses the remaining defect for the requirement—A project uses free-form customer identifiers instead of the established customer master and creates duplicate contacts. It restores the mechanism described here: Business Central master data patterns centralize business entities and reduce conflicting duplicates across extensions.

Question 543
A retail loyalty add-on keeps its own unlinked item descriptions instead of referring to standard Item records. The team implemented a change aligned with this plan: Reference established master data entities instead of duplicating their identity in a custom table. Which acceptance result specifically verifies that the reported problem is resolved?
- Sample transactions produce expected posted documents, balanced entries and standard error handling
- Customer or item changes propagate through supported references and no duplicate master records are created
- Posted entries retain the requested dimension values and standard dimension-filtered reports agree
- New documents receive nonconflicting values within the intended number-series configuration
Explanation
