### What is new

#### Loading data

The experience to upload data using CData Sync or Theobald Xtract Universal has been improved.

All the details and documentation you need to configure the extractor are now provided in the **Upload data using CData** or **Upload data using Theobald** step in the app creation process.

The **Use CData extractor** option is now the default option for app templates that use a source system that is supported by CData. For app templates that use an SAP source system, the **Use Theobald extractor** option is the default option for loading data.

#### Filters

The new **Process cropping** filter allows business users to focus on, or zoom in on, a specific part of the process for more detailed analysis.

:::note
If you want to use the **Process cropping** filter for an existing process app, you must first optimize the process app.

### Improvements

#### Data model editor

The Preview panel is now displayed in the Data model editor.

#### Dashboard editor

* You can now rearrange the layout of the dashboard by dragging and dropping charts.
* The version number of the process app is now displayed in the header bar.
* The label **Dev mode** is now displayed in the header bar, to indicate that the process app is currently open for development.

#### Pie charts

If the data consists of more than five slices for the selected category, a sixth slice is displayed representing the combined total of the remaining categories that are not displayed individually. The sixth slice now respects the metric used in the chart and is no longer simply computed as an average of the remaining values. This provides a more accurate and meaningful representation of the data.

#### Data manager

You can now view references for fields and metrics. When you hover over the **Delete** icon for a field, a popup is displayed indicating which processes and/or metrics use the field. When you hover over the **Delete** icon for a metric, a popup is displayed indicating which dashboards and charts use the metric.

#### Published process apps

The version number of the process app is now displayed in the header bar.

#### Timeframe filter

The timeframe filter now only shows the fields of type `datetime` that are set to visible (**Show field in app**) in Data manager.

### Bug fixes

#### Metric calculations

We fixed an issue with calculating chart metrics which use multiple tables. For example, a metric like **Sum of Case_amount** now counts each **Case_amount** only once, regardless of the `group by` chosen. Before, if that metric was used on a chart grouped by an event field like **Activity**, then each **Case_amount** might be counted multiple times.

:::important
With this fix, the outcome of existing metrics might change.

### Improvements

#### Purchase-to-Pay app template and Order-to-Cash app template

Additional fields in your input tables will now be added automatically to your Process Mining app. No SQL changes are needed for this anymore.

:::note
New apps created with the latest generic Purchase-to-Pay or Order-to-Cash app template will have this behavior.
:::

#### Context metrics

You can now add context metrics when creating or editing metrics. Context metrics can be used to provide a better understanding of the main metric displayed on the chart. Context metrics are displayed in the published process app as tooltips on charts.

#### Customizing process apps

Action buttons are now ordered in a more logical way in the **Dashboard editor** and **Data transformations**. The most frequently used action is now highlighted as the primary action.

### Other

* We now support **CData Sync 2024 - 24.1.8885** for Loading data using CData Sync.
