Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Apps Developer (MB-500) is Microsoft's job-role certification for developers who build and extend the Dynamics 365 finance and operations apps - Microsoft's enterprise ERP (formerly Dynamics AX). It proves you can plan architecture and solution design, apply developer tools (Visual Studio, Lifecycle Services and Azure DevOps), design and develop application elements (AOT objects, tables, forms, classes and extensions) with the X++ language, develop and test code, implement reporting, and manage data (data entities, integrations, OData and business events). This is a developer certification. Microsoft recommends development experience, including X++ and an understanding of the finance and operations apps. Passing MB-500 alone earns this Associate certification. The exam has about 40 to 60 questions and can include case studies. It is graded on a scaled score: you need 700 on a scale of 1 to 1000 to pass. Because scoring is weighted, 700 does not mean 70% of questions correct. The exam costs about US$165 (varies by region) and is delivered through Pearson VUE.
The Dynamics 365 finance and operations apps run large enterprises worldwide, and skilled X++ developers who can extend them are in steady demand at Microsoft partners and enterprises. MB-500 proves you can build and extend the enterprise ERP with code, supports finance and operations developer roles, and is a well-recognised, well-paid technical credential. As a job-role credential it carries real weight with employers and partners, and Microsoft's free annual renewal keeps it current at no ongoing cost.
