Note: When you are creating a business flow, and choosing the mapping templates for an object, you can mark a mapping template as Create Only, Update Only or Both. For project data business flows, if all mapping templates are create-only templates, then update is not allowed.
Each business flow uses one or more field-mapping templates that handle the data transfer of specific business objects and its corresponding fields. You can edit these delivered business flows or also create additional business flows and field-mapping templates to fit your needs.
