CSA Question #263: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Which features ensures data consistency while importing data using import sets and web services?

Options

• AUI Policy
• BData Policy
• CBusiness Rule
• DClient Script
• ECSDM

Explanation

Data Policies ensure data consistency by enforcing mandatory fields, read-only states, or default values on records, regardless of whether the data is entered via the UI, import sets, or web services.

Common mistakes.

• A. UI Policies are client-side mechanisms that only apply to data entered through the user interface and are bypassed when data is imported via import sets or web services.
• C. While Business Rules can perform data validation, Data Policies are specifically designed for consistent field enforcement across all input channels without needing to write script.
• D. Client Scripts execute in the browser and are therefore ineffective at enforcing data consistency for data imported through server-side processes like import sets or web services.
• E. CSDM (Common Service Data Model) provides a standardized framework for data organization, but it is not a feature that technically ensures data consistency during import or web service interactions.
