Hi,

A feature request.

Any chance to get "Apply on create only" option on data format:

Like:

<table tableName="EcomProducts">
    <item table="EcomProducts">
      <column columnName="ProductId">P011</column>
      <column columnName="ProductLanguageId">LANG4</column>
      <column columnName="ProductVariantId" />
      <column columnName="ProductDefaultShopID">SHOP1</column>
      <column columnName="ProductNumber" />
      <column columnName="ProductCreated" onlyOnCreate="True">2021-06-30 10:00:00</column>
...
    </item>
</table>

+1 to this.

A use case that I see is where we want to pick up the default from the ERP (often all in uppercase letters) but allow the PIM to own it from that point forward. 

Being able to flag it in XML (or json) would be handy. An alternative is to have a per mapping setting in the data integration job, then it would support all data provider types.

In the job mapping you can already do that today with the checkbox that Allan is showing.

Also, in 9.12 this is now a little easier to discover:

Hi Imar,

NIce! I missed or forgot about that arriving in 9.10 (I didn't see the image from the email version of the forums post). That's exactly what I'm looking for. And, nice that it's even more obvious in 9.12.
