Use the Requested flow <is not empty> to filter out records using the CRM Core APIs. The Inbound Request table [sn_tmt_core_inbound_queue] provides the status and other details related to the request. For example, while creating an order through a quote record, a confirmation message with the order header number.

Note: The flow designer SOM Request Processor is deprecated. Requests are directed to the flow designer IBQ Request Processor.
