What might experience drift when utilizing incremental sync, aside from security settings?

When utilizing incremental sync, experience drift can often occur with formula fields. This is due to the fact that formula fields are calculated dynamically based on the underlying data. If there are changes in the raw data being synced incrementally, the outcomes of these formula fields may no longer align with the expectations set when the initial sync was completed. Since the calculation of formula fields relies on the current values of the fields they depend on, any updates or changes in those fields can lead to discrepancies in the calculations.

In contrast, other components such as dataflows, visualizations, and report configurations generally rely more on the defined structures of the data rather than the dynamic nature of recalculating based on changing data inputs. While these can be affected by changes in the underlying data, the nature of formula fields means they are particularly susceptible to experiencing drift as new data is incrementally incorporated into the system. This makes it essential to regularly check and validate formula fields to ensure they are performing accurately in the context of updated data.
