To allow for receipt of quantities of items greater than the quantity ordered in Dynamics 365 Business Central, there are two possible ways to achieve the goal, as follows:

A. Configure a maximum order quantity for the item: This solution will allow the user to specify a maximum order quantity for the item, and it will prevent the creation of purchase orders for quantities greater than the specified maximum order quantity. However, it will not allow for the receipt of quantities greater than the ordered quantity. To configure this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the item card for the item that you want to configure.
  2. In the 'Planning' tab, in the 'Ordering' field group, enter the maximum order quantity for the item in the 'Maximum Order Quantity' field.
  3. Save the changes.

B. Configure a maximum inventory level for the item: This solution will allow the user to specify a maximum inventory level for the item, and it will prevent the receipt of quantities greater than the specified maximum inventory level. However, it will not allow the creation of purchase orders for quantities greater than the ordered quantity. To configure this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the item card for the item that you want to configure.
  2. In the 'Planning' tab, in the 'Ordering' field group, enter the maximum inventory level for the item in the 'Maximum Inventory' field.
  3. Save the changes.

C. Set up and select an over-receipt code in the item record: This solution will allow the user to receive quantities greater than the ordered quantity. It involves setting up an over-receipt code and selecting it in the item record. When the user receives a purchase order, they can enter a quantity greater than the ordered quantity, and the system will apply the over-receipt code to the transaction. To configure this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the item card for the item that you want to configure.
  2. In the 'Purchase' tab, in the 'Line' field group, set up an over-receipt code in the 'Over-Receipt Code' field.
  3. Save the changes.

D. Set up and select an over-receipt code in the vendor record: This solution is similar to option C, but it involves setting up an over-receipt code in the vendor record, which will be applied to all items purchased from that vendor. When the user receives a purchase order, they can enter a quantity greater than the ordered quantity, and the system will apply the over-receipt code to the transaction. To configure this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the vendor card for the vendor that you want to configure.
  2. In the 'Purchasing' tab, in the 'Invoice' field group, set up an over-receipt code in the 'Over-Receipt Code' field.
  3. Save the changes.

In conclusion, the correct answers to this question are C and D.
