hi all, Now I'm trying to update data connector and dashboard to latest version.(I found some difference between my celonis version and latest O2C asset.) In one time upload case, do I need to create celonis at first: I mean, add data connector, upload data and add dashboard? or do we have a way to add something patch to my old celonis environment? Thanks and regards,

Hello, I have an activity "OCH_Activities". "Source_Queue_TXT" and "OCH_Activities". "Target_Queue_TXT".I want if source and target are the same, that I get the value 1 for example.I have already tried COUNT( CASE WHEN "OCH_Activities". "Source_Queue_TXT" = "OCH_Activities". "Target_Queue_TXT" THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)but this does not compare the two activities. What would be the correct approach here.Thanks

Dear Celopeers, we are connectiing Celonis with a Salesforce production environment using the standard Celonis Extractors/Process Connectors. This connector, as stated on the Celonis documentation, uses Rest API. Using rest API impacts the limit of concurrent calls that the platform can support (25 in parallel with a maximum duration of 20 seconds). This means that the Celonis connector competes with calls from other applications causing possible service interruptions. Is there any option within Celonis extractor/connector to set API limits and ensure that extractions do not have a negative impact on the productive Salesforce system performance? Or, can such API limits be set only within Salesforce?

Hi All, I am facing an issue while uploading data to Celonis. My transformations are working fine but it fails at the data model load stage with the following error: "The Data Model Load experienced an issue with the Data Pipeline Orchestrator." Has anyone faced this issue before or knows of a solution to fix this. Thanks,Dhruv

Hi all, I am looking into the possibility of loading data permissions from tables.But reading the documentation (here), I have a couple of questions. Do I need to first load an excel spreadsheet with my permissions in the data model, to create a "permission table", is that correct ? How does it work when you manage the data access using groups ? Instead of a column with emails, I just have a column with the group names ? Regarding the unlimited access, you just need to create a column called "unlimited" with the value Yes/No, is that correct ? Over time, if I update the data permissions (new, delete, or update), do I just need to re-upload my file in the data model to refresh the data permissions ? or do I need to do something extra ? Any experience you could share would be much appreaciated. Thanks 

Hi All,  I have an interesting requirement, where i need to find the data type of the column (table field) in PQL.  Ex : Implementation is done in Views and knowledge model:  Case_Key = 400100200300,400A00200400Variable ${CK} = Case_Key  Requirement ==> Case when ${CK}= String then ${CK} else to_String(${CK}) END Any insights on this would be much appreciated. TIA!

I would like to write KPIs back to a SQL server. Currently we only have 13 months of data in Celonis and it would be helpful to compare current KPIs with older ones. Is it possible to write back to a SQL server and if so what methods have you used to do this?

According to requirement we have tried special character to identify but unable to add ' and % in celonis. The syntax which we have used is CASE WHEN("TABLE NAME"."COLUMN NAME") IN_LIKE ('!','@','#','$','^','*','(',')','- ','_','+','=','{','}','[',']','|','/',':',';','"','<','>',',','.','?') THEN 'CLEANSE' ELSE 'PERFECT' when we are adding ' and % two characters output is getting changed. For identifying the correct email address we have got this syntax IF(match_regex($email, '[a-zA-Z0-9_\\-]+@([a-zA-Z0-9_\\-]+\\.)+(com|org|edu|nz|au)', null))but its not working.

HiDear Experts, I want filtering about Case Erruption Ratio (Case/Global Case) like thisratio = count("table"."ID")/global(count("table"."ID") ​so I'm use component filter FILTER ( count("table"."ID")/global(count("table"."ID") ) > 0.01 ​but celonis say "COUNT(DISTINCT "Pizza_Event_Pizzeria_Event"."_CASE_KEY") /global (COUNT(DISTINCT "Pizza_Event_Pizzeria_Event"."_CASE_KEY"))"​To solve it, I tried to count the number of Caseids and Globals (caseids) with pu_count, pu_count_distinct but it didn't work. Can you tell me how to do it?​

I am trying to find potential use cases on general accounting and bank reconciliation process/intercompany transactions. Any help on this?

I know want o create an Action Flow that sends an individual Email to each Material Manager (Note that there could be over 50). The Email should contain the following information:If a material of the MM has a negative stock or the stock becomes negative in the future the Email should contain this number togehter with the first date date where this happens and the corresponding stock. If this is true for multipe Material numbers they should all be in one Mail. Examples how the Output should look like are also in the Excel-Attachment. To get the first negative values I tried using fomulas analog to this one because it workes in a view but it does not seem to work in the query-node in the action flow. "PU_FIRST (DOMAIN_TABLE("Material Number"),"Stock","Stock"< 0)" Also I havent found a way how to create individual aggregated email for each Material Manager Does somebody have an idea how to solve this?
