An authoritative system where data consumers can obtain reliable data as an alternative to the

system of record is known as a "Trusted System."

System of Record:

The system of record (SOR) is the authoritative data source for a particular data element or dataset. It

ensures data integrity, accuracy, and consistency.

Trusted System:

A trusted system provides reliable data that consumers can use for transactions and analysis. It acts

as a reference point and may serve as an alternative to the system of record.

It ensures that users have access to high-quality, consistent, and trustworthy data, which is essential

for decision-making and operational processes.

Other Options:

System of Reference: Generally refers to a system used for lookup and reference purposes but not

necessarily authoritative for transactions.

System of Origin: The original source of data before it is integrated into other systems.

Source System: Any system that contributes data to an enterprise system but is not specifically a

trusted or authoritative source.

System of Use: The system where data is actively used and consumed for various business processes.
