A Data Model Object (DMO) that inherits the name, shape, and semantics of the reference object is called a Standard DMO. A reference object is a predefined object in the Data Cloud data model that represents a common entity or concept, such as Individual, Order, or Product. A Standard DMO is a copy of a reference object that you can use to ingest data from a specific source without modifying the original reference object. A Standard DMO has the same fields and relationships as the reference object, but you can add custom fields or relationships to it if needed. References: Data Model Objects
