The administrator must have both the correct license and an environment that supports Dynamics 365 apps . Microsoft states that when creating a production or sandbox Power Platform environment with a Dataverse database, administrators can add Dynamics 365 apps such as Dynamics 365 Sales, but they must select Enable Dynamics 365 apps during database provisioning. Microsoft also states that a valid Dynamics 365 license is required to enable Dynamics 365 apps.

Therefore, the administrator must be assigned a Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise license , and the environment must have Dataverse added with Dynamics 365 apps enabled . After the Sales license is available, Dynamics 365 Sales apps such as Sales Hub can be installed from the Power Platform admin center under the environment’s Dynamics 365 apps resources.

Option A is wrong because server-side synchronization is used for Exchange email, appointments, contacts, and tasks integration; it is not required to deploy Sales Hub. Option D is not required because a sandbox environment can support Dynamics 365 apps when Dataverse and Dynamics 365 apps are enabled. Option E is unnecessary unless the administrator is excluded from the security group; the scenario already states the administrator has the System Administrator role.

Actual Revenue

The correct table is Opportunity because the goal measurement is based on deal amounts when opportunities are closed. In Dynamics 365 Sales goal metrics, rollup fields define which table and source attribute are used to calculate actual or in-progress goal values. Microsoft’s goal metric documentation gives the direct example of using the Opportunity table with the opportunity actual value/source attribute to track actual money amounts from opportunities closed as Won .

The correct date field is Actual Close Date because the goal period must be determined by when the deal was actually closed, not when the opportunity was created. Microsoft’s goal metric configuration guidance states that the Date Field determines the goal period that records roll up into, and gives Actual Close Date as the relevant example.

The correct revenue field is Actual Revenue because the requirement is based on the total deal amount upon closing the opportunity. Budget Amount and Total Amount do not represent the final closed deal value for goal actuals. Goal rollup fields calculate actual performance values for completed measurable results, which fits closed opportunity revenue.

Yes, the solution meets the goal. The requirement is very specific: sales managers need deal insights , but the organization must avoid automatic outreach to buyers . Sales Close Agent in Research mode is the correct configuration because it focuses on researching opportunities, analyzing deal context, identifying risks and signals, and providing recommendations to sellers without autonomously engaging customers.

Research mode is intended to help sellers understand an opportunity more quickly by surfacing insights such as deal health, signals, risks, and suggested next actions. It supports opportunity management by giving the team intelligence that can help progress deals, while leaving communication decisions in the hands of the seller. That directly aligns with the stated requirement for insights about deals.

The critical distinction is that Engage mode is the mode that performs automated outreach and customer interaction. Since the company explicitly does not want automatic outreach to buyers, Engage mode would violate the requirement. By configuring the Sales Close Agent in Research mode , the company gets AI-assisted opportunity analysis without autonomous communications.
