when the Auto-update owner field is set to true, the value of the entity owner stays in sync with the value of the source field. For example, if the value of the owner changes in the Managed by field (source field), a scheduled job runs to sync this value with the entity owner field value. For scenarios in which the value of the owner field is empty, there are two possible outcomes: Use Default: When selected, the "Default owner" field value populates the "Entity Owner" field. Do Not Create: When selected, the entity record is not created. If the entity filter is pulling in an existing entity record, the entity owner assigned when it was originally generated remains assigned.
