About Foundational Data Management

Foundational data includes reference data that may need to be shared across domains or domain-specific. Managing this data correctly ensures proper system behavior across all tenants.

Why This Matters for Your Exam

Foundational Data Management represents 20% of the CIS-SP exam. Understanding how to handle shared vs domain-specific data is crucial.

Key Concepts to Master

Know how to configure tables for domain separation, understand reference field behavior across domains, and learn about choice list domain separation.

Exam Tips

Remember that not all tables need domain separation. Know which system tables are typically domain-separated and how reference fields resolve across domain boundaries.
