Question 1 of 83

A company is deploying Business Central on-premises.
The company plans to use a single-tenant deployment architecture.
You need to describe how the data is stored and how the Business Central Server is configured.
In which two ways should you describe the single-tenant architecture? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Each customer has their own Business Central Server.

The application and the business data are stored in the same database.

Multiple customers share a single Business Central Server.

The application and business data are stored in separate databases.

Multiple customers share multiple Business Central Server instances.

Correct Answer: A, B

In a single-tenant deployment architecture for Business Central on-premises, each customer has their own Business Central Server. This ensures that the customer's data and processes are isolated and managed independently. Additionally, the application and business data are stored in the same database, providing a unified and streamlined approach to data management within a single-tenant environment. This configuration contrasts with multi-tenant setups, where multiple customers might share server resources and databases.

The app must be used by employees to check item details from the ERP in real time and to report issues that occur during the manufacturing process.
An AL extension must be created for handling archived issues.
Business Central development guidelines must be followed when implementing modules.
A module must be implemented for the reporting and tracking of issues information. You plan to call this module Issue Management. The module must expose a method named PostIssue.

In the ISSUE EXT extension, you create a tableextension object of the Issue table.

In a new version of the ISSUE BASE extension, you create a new Issue Type table. You must move data row by row from a previously obsolete Issue Category table to the new Issue Type table. Because a large amount of data must be moved, you must write an Upgrade codeunit by using the DataTransfer object.

Exam MB-820: Question 3 - Image 5

Each order no. must be retrieved.
You need to handle the removal of the Description field and the Clone procedure without breaking other extensions.

You need to determine why the extension does not appear in the tenant.
What are two possible reasons for the disappearance? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

The extension was published as a DEV extension.

The extension was not compatible with the new version within 60 days of the first notification.

The extension was published as PTE, and the Platform parameter was not updated in the app.json file.

The extension was published as PTE, and the Platform and Runtime parameters were not updated in the app.json file.

The extension was not compatible with the new version within 90 days of the first notification.

Correct Answer: A, E

A possible reason for the extension not appearing in the tenant could be that it was published as a DEV extension. DEV extensions are intended for development and testing purposes and are not meant for production use. After an upgrade, these DEV extensions may not automatically reappear in the tenant. Another possible reason is that the extension was not updated to be compatible with the new version within 90 days of the first notification. Business Central provides notifications about upcoming upgrades and compatibility requirements, and if these are not met within the given timeframe, the extension may be removed during the upgrade process.
