Create a Rework Batch Order in Dynamics 365 SCM
Short answer
BCE Specify the batch number, set the batch order as a rework batch, and reserve the reworked inventory after estimation.
Question
Key Takeaways
A rework batch order is flagged as a rework batch and tied to the original defective batch number; the reworked inventory must be reserved so it is allocated to the rework.
To create a rework batch order for a quality-issue batch, set the batch order as a rework batch, specify the original batch number on the batch order, and reserve the reworked inventory (after estimation).
Common mistake: Do not set the item as a Formula production type (the original item's production type is unchanged). Note community debate on reserving before vs after estimation, but the exam-aligned answer reserves after estimation.
Expert Analysis
Why the Answer Is Correct
Three settings are required. Specify the original batch number on the batch order so the rework is traced to the defective batch (B). Set the batch order as a rework batch so it is processed as rework (C). Reserve the reworked inventory after estimation so it is allocated to the rework order (E).
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
- Option A (pick the reworked inventory after estimation) is not a required setup step.
- Option D (set the item as a Formula production type) is unrelated; the item's production type is not changed for rework.
Community Comment Notes
Community consensus is BCE (100). One discussant cites older documentation stating reserve before estimation, but the exam-aligned answer is BCE.

GiSi1965 👍 4To create a rework order for production in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, you’ll need to configure the following options: Specify the batch number on the batch order (B): When creating a rework order, it’s essential to associate it with a specific batch number. This ensures that the rework is tracked accurately and tied to the correct material batch. Set the batch order as a rework batch (C): Designate the batch order explicitly as a rework batch. This classification helps differentiate it from regular production orders and ensures that it follows the appropriate rework processes. Reserve the reworked inventory after estimation (E): Reserve the inventory for the rework process once the estimation is complete. This step ensures that the necessary materials are available and prevents conflicts with other production orders.

Deetss 👍 1Should it be "A" instead of "E"? Documentation states: "You must manually reserve this inventory BEFORE you run estimation." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamicsax-2012/appuser-itpro/create-a-rework-batch-order
