esswok

it seems clear but I just want to be certain, thanks for reading.

70-686 completion = a MCITP , this link seems to indicate but is not perfectly clear.

Also do you receive online certification validation publishing support from Microsoft the same as Cisco does?

what about certificate, and wallet document from Microsoft, is it same as CompTia, and Cisco?

There are no MCITP certifications that you get by passing a single exam. To get the MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Administrator 7 cert, you need to pass both 680 and 686. This link shows the required exams for the various MCITP certs:

Once you have completed some certs, you can publish your transcript online. MS no longer offers wallet cards at all, and you have to pay extra to get printed certificates, though you can freely download the PDF and print them yourself.

Here are some FAQs that have this information, and more:

Thank you for being so helpful MentholMoose that was very nice.

I would like to know:

Does the order of the exam matter or can you do it either way?

70-680 then 70-686, or 70-686, then 70-680

is either way permitted?

Also: it does not say how much time the test is or how many questions is this known or available
thanks again

You can take the exams in any order. Each test can have a different number of questions and the time for an exam also varies, but it's usually 2 hours and a bit.

MS doesn't say how many questions you will get usually it's 45-75 but there is no rules and you migh have some case studies as well. As for duration when you register through Prometric it actually tells you the duration of the exam.
