STUDIO View preferences kept when re-entering View edit mode 

When previewing your Studio Views using the interactive mode, any View preferences you configure are now kept when you re-enter View edit mode. View preferences are unique to each user and created by their interactions with filters, user specific variables, and components.

View preferences include, but aren't limited to, the following:

• Filters
• Variables
• Component states (such as column sizes and sorting in tables and selecting KPI list cards)

When editing a Studio View, you can see when View preferences are applied by clicking the View preference icon:

You can then click Restore default View to remove these preferences again.1:37

For more information about creating and editing Studio Views, head to: Views.

And to learn more about restoring to your default View, see: Restore default View.

EXTRACTORS SAP ECC and S/4 HANA extractor version 3.9.6 

The new version of SAP ECC and S/4 HANA extractor brings added protections against SQL injection vulnerabilities. These checks validate dynamic SQL statements, using the CL_ABAP_DYN_PRG class. For detailed information, see SAP Notes (SAP Service marketplace login required).

This change impacts the minimal supported SAP versions in the following way:

When upgrading the extractor, make sure to follow these requirements or implement the corrections outlined in the following SAP Notes: 1487337, 1601030, and 1743483 (SAP Service marketplace login required).

OBJECTS & EVENTS Perspective logs shown with transformation logs 

In the Data Jobs area of the data pool you're using with objects and events, you can now see the logs for the data model loads for all your perspectives, as well as the logs for your transformations. Previously you had to go to the Data Loads tab in the Data Models area of the data pool to view the logs for perspective loads, and select each individual perspective. The logs for the perspectives are still in that location as well if you want to view them there.

You can see the logs for the perspectives together with the logs for the transformations in the object-centric process mining data jobs ocpm-data-job (for production) and test-ocpm-data-job (for development). The data model loads are also included in the execution time for the data job, which means the displayed execution time is likely to increase, but the total execution time across the data model loads and the transformations has not changed. This change lets us optimize performance for change-aware executions (see Executing data jobs). If you're using that limited availability feature, your total execution time across the data model loads and the transformations is likely to decrease.

OBJECTS & EVENTS Usability enhancements for modeling objects and events 

We're making a range of improvements that you've requested, to enhance your experience of modeling and managing objects and events for object-centric process mining. Here are the latest changes:

• When you're importing object types from your source system data, we've added a search bar so you can search the available tables in the data source as an alternative to browsing them.
• We'll automatically check the transformations that we autogenerate for object types imported from a table, and enable any that are already valid. If you need to complete a transformation script manually, we'll leave it disabled.
• For the ID for an imported object type, you can now use a source data column with the data type FLOAT, as well as INT and STRING. We'll cast them all to the required data type STRING in the autogenerated transformation script.
• You can now use your data pool's global connection to deploy transformations for objects and events.
• From the Objects and Events dashboard, you now access the data pool in the same way, whether you're using one or multiple data pools for objects and events.
