19.21Ask about manually edited Salesforce fields
Critical question:
“Which fields may Salesforce users edit manually?”
Then:
“Should the next source synchronization overwrite those edits?”
Example:
ERP owns:
Legal_Name__c
Salesforce reps own:
Notes
Account_Manager__c
Your DataWeave should map only source-owned fields.
Do not send a giant Account object full of nulls.
