Explanation

Dynamics 365 Business Central - Company Creation Templates

The question asks you to match three company creation templates to three requirements in the assisted setup guide. The requirements (implied by standard exam format) are:

#	Requirement	Correct Template
1	Company contains sample data	Evaluation
2	Company contains no data	Create New
3	Company contains setup data only	Production

Item-by-Item Explanation

1. Evaluation → Sample Data

The Evaluation template pre-populates the company with demo/sample data (customers, vendors, items, transactions, etc.). Its sole purpose is to let users explore, demonstrate, or test Business Central features against realistic-looking data without any real business impact. If a requirement calls for sample or demo data, this is always the answer.

2. Create New → No Data

The Create New template produces a completely blank company - no configuration, no chart of accounts, no sample records. It is a true empty shell. Use this when you need a company with absolutely nothing pre-loaded, typically as a starting point for fully custom implementations.

3. Production → Setup Data Only

The Production template creates a company with default configuration and setup data (chart of accounts, posting groups, number series, etc.) but no transactional or sample data. This is the standard choice for a live business environment: the foundational setup is there, but no artificial data pollutes the real books.

Common Mistakes

Confusing Production with Create New: Production is NOT blank - it includes setup data. Create New is the blank one.
Using Evaluation for live companies: Evaluation data is fake and must never be mistaken for a production-ready setup.
Assuming "Create New" has default settings: It does not - every configuration must be done manually from scratch.

The key mental model: Evaluation = demo data, Production = real setup, no data, Create New = nothing at all.
