Sample data gives you something to experiment with as you learn Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises), and helps you see how data is organized in the system. After working with sample data, you’ll probably want to remove it at some point.
Or, if sample data isn’t installed on your system, you may want to add it for training purposes. Later, when you’re ready, you can remove it.
Important
Use sample data to learn and play around with system features. However, to avoid unwanted results, don’t associate it with any data you actually need.
Make sure you have the System Administrator security role or equivalent permissions.
