About this Sample Test
None of these questions are on the ERP Consultant Exam. Most of these questions were written by the same
authors who wrote the actual exams. We have tried to write them to a similar level of difficulty as the actual exam
questions, but do not guarantee this.
This sample test is provided to give you an idea of the format of questions that might be asked on the exam.
However, the sample test does not provide comprehensive coverage of all topics on the test. All material listed in
the SuiteFoundation Study Guide may be tested.
Being able to answer all the below questions correctly does not guarantee that you will pass the SuiteFoundation
exam. We do not publish our passing score.
The number of sample questions per test objective does not reflect the actual weighting of the exam. Any
objective may have more, or fewer, questions than are presented here. All objectives have at least one sample
question included here.
Matching questions are worth the same point value as any other question, though they may take longer
to answer. Also, there is no partial credit, all the matches must be correct.
