- If a user wants to have the application behave differently after record save, then this configuration will be much helpful as a system-generated Id gets generated when users hits save.
- So, any condition like "Id is Empty" is configured means the behavior is applicable for record create scenarios.
- Similarly, any condition like "Id is Non-Empty" is configured means the behavior is applicable to all existing records which are already created and user wants to update it.
