+    - **CM-Handle States** are used to represent the potential states in which a CM-Handle can transition between.
+
+        The 5 possible CM-Handle states are: ADVISED, READY, LOCKED, DELETING, DELETED
+
+        **ADVISED** indicates that a CM-Handle has been registered successfully, and is waiting for the module synchronization process to sync the CM-Handle.
+
+        **READY** indicates that the CM-Handle has been synced successfully.
+
+        **LOCKED** indicates that the CM-Handle has not synced successfully. A retry mechanism within CPS will set the state back to ADVISED after a set time.
+
+        **DELETING** indicates that the CM-Handle is currently being deleted.
+
+        **DELETED** indicates that the CM-Handle has been deleted successfully.
+
+    - **Data-sync state** is the state of the data synchronization process of the CM-Handle
+
+        There are 3 possibles states: NONE_REQUESTED, UNSYNCHRONIZED, SYNCHRONIZED
+
+        **NONE_REQUESTED** indicates that the data sync is not requested by the user
+
+        **UNSYNCHRONIZED** indicates the cm-handle is waiting for the data sync watchdog operation to carry out the sync process
+
+        **SYNCHRONIZED** indicates the watchdog process has finished the data synchronization successfully
+
 - **Datastores** represent different views of the cm data.
 
     Datastores are defined for NCMP to access the CPS running or operational datastores. Currently supported datastores are:
