38. Topic 2, CASE STUDY 1 Manufacturing Company
General information
A manufacturing company produces custom configured-to-order motorcycles. The company plans to implement Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The company contains one legal entity located in Missouri where all production and warehousing operations occur.
Customization options
The custom motorcycles have a variety of selections that can be selected in the listed order by the end customer, including the following:
Customization restrictions
The following restrictions on customizations are in place:
* Green color can only be sold with the Legend Trim.
* Orange color can be sold with the Sport or Legend Trim.
* The ML seat must be included in the Legend package.
* The MS seat must be included in the Sport package.
Manufacturing facilities
The company includes the following manufacturing groups: Assembly and Plastic Molding. The Assembly group is responsible for assembling the motorcycles with purchased and manufactured goods. The Plastic Molding group is responsible for manufacture of all plastic parts used in the assembly area.
Motorcycle manufacturing
The parts for the product assembly are picked from the warehouse and staged at the correct workstation by a warehouse operator for each production order.
Plastic manufacturing
Plastic parts are molded using dyes that create multiple parts at once. The parts are machined in the same production process to remove excess plastic and add additional holes for assembly. Excess plastic is recycled back into the feedstock of the same color plastic chips for use in the molding process.
Metal Parts
Raw metal parts are purchased fully machined but without primer or paint. The parts are subcontracted to a vendor for primer and paint based upon the color requirements.
Facility
The company has a single warehouse that supports both the assembly and plastic manufacturing areas. The warehouse consists of three aisles with 15 bins and three shelves. The facility has no Wi-Fi capacity but has hardwired terminal stations throughout the assembly production line.
Transactions are currently completed by office staff. Raw materials transfer must support capacity constraints for paint and primer.

Issues
A. In the current system, the company cannot calculate overhead rates and determine the breakdown of material, labor, machine, and overhead costs for production.
B. The company is manually calculating an 8% overhead on materials and posting a journal manually.
You need to create the constraint for the ML seat selection.
Which expression constraint should you use?
A. Implies[Trim==Legend,Seat==ML]
B. Seat!=ML
C. [Trim==Legend|Seat==ML]
D. Implies[Seat==ML,Trim==Legend]
