Add or remove sample data
Sample data gives you something to experiment with as you learn Microsoft Dynamics 365, and helps you see how data is organized in the system. At some point, you’ll probably want to remove the sample data.
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.
