Hi all,
A few general questions on BPFs please.
I'd like to have an entity whereby the BPF associated with it is not automatically begun when a new record is created for the entity but rather based on a data condition for the entity. Automatically beginning the BPF when a new record is created seems to be the default behavior. Any options for that configuration?
Can a BPF invoke another BPF (parent/child PBFs) or are these independent, linear flows?
Thanks much!

Hi @Dosjots
I do not believe you an conditionally trigger BPF
You can have multiple BPF's and decide which one is the default though
You cna also define secuirty roles for BPF's - hence users with a particular security role will only be able to use that BPF
A BPF can call other workflows

Hi,
I know this is an older topic but:
We have the same situation. And I think this is a common use case, that a Business Process Flow shall not be created on record creation but on conditions or when the user starts it manually.
There was actually a way to control BPF creation
and it seemed a small plug-in was able to handle this
https://www.itaintboring.com/dynamics-crm/skipping-process-initialization-on-create/
But those posts are from 3 years ago and the processId field on records is now deprecated. At least for me the plug-in did not work.
Has anyone another way to prevent the creation of a BPF along with record creation?
