Business rules vs Flow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Until one hour ago I thought these two where the same thing.

Business rules define a process that you need to follow when for instance you create a new record on your Entity.

A flow is an automation of something.

 

So far this is what I know. But I'm not sure about my findings.

Could someone be more precise and clarify ?

 

Many thanks

    This sounds like a Power Automate question rather than a PowerApps question. I suggest you post this in the Power Automate Community instead. You’ll get a quicker and better response over there
