For more information about Action Flow inputs, see Action Flow inputs. DATA INTEGRATION Extractions Editor and AI Assistant for JDBC data extractions  You can now write or generate SQL queries for JDBC data extractions using the new in-built Extractions Editor and AI Assistant. These enhanced features will allow you to use your source system specific SQL functions and JOINS, making it easier for you to extract your data into the Celonis Platform.In addition to generating extraction queries, the AI Assistant will also help validate queries for you. For further information, see: Extractions Editor and AI Assistant overview.Using the JDBC extractor?If you're currently connecting to your source system using the JDBC extractor, you must update the extractor to version 3.0.0 in order to use the Extractions Editor and AI Assistant.For more information about installing and updating the JDBC extractor to version 3.0.0, see: Updating the on-premise JDBC extractor. DATA INTEGRATION SAP Ariba Custom Forms API v3 deprecated  SAP has officially deprecated Ariba Custom Forms API v3. See SAP Ariba Version History page. In response to that change, we're updating Celonis SAP Ariba Extractor to use the Custom Forms API v4. For more information, see Supported SAP Ariba API endpoints.ImportantDue to changes in the underlying table structure, delta extractions may fail after the update. To avoid any issues, we recommend running a new full extraction for any tables impacted after the update. MACHINE LEARNING Upgraded machine learning workbenches available  The Machine Learning Workbench environment has been upgraded to include a new version of workbenches with automatic upgrades, integrated Conda support and expanded compatibility with Python. These new workbenches are designed to reduce maintenance by providing ongoing upgrades that will install the latest security updates and performance upgrades automatically. This update also includes an environment management feature that allows you to create individual environments using Conda without conflicts between versions or potential issues with dependencies. These new workbenches will also work with more versions of Python, making them compatible with a wider range of tools and libraries.To create this new type of workbench, select the “Jupyter Workbench” option from the Create Workbench window and then finish creating the workbench as usual. To create a workbench using the legacy format, select “Jupyter Workbench (Legacy)”. These updated versions are only available when creating new workbenches and will not impact existing workbenches. To upgrade existing workbenches to the new version, you will need to create a new workbench and then migrate the existing workbench to it. Using the new workbenches is optional, so you can continue creating workbenches using the existing version, but it is recommended that you utilize the new workbench version to take advantage of the improved functionality. PI GRAPH Global transformation parameters  You can now create global parameters that can be used across all transformations in Objects and Events. This reduces the multiple recurring steps and thereby clicks when (re)creating and updating local transformation parameters, making transformation parameters scalable across your Object Centric data.When creating transformation parameters, select Global and either add a new parameters or apply an existing one:For more information about modeling your objects and events, see: Creating custom transformations. PI GRAPH Import from table now supports DATE columns as attributes  The Import from table functionality has been upgraded to allow you to import a table containing a DATE column and use that column to create an attribute. Previously, when creating an Object type by importing a table with a DATE column, that DATE column was unsupported and could not be used as an attribute. With this update, the DATE column will automatically be cast as a TIMESTAMP during the transformation and can be used to create an attribute. For more information, see Importing object types and relationships from source data. PI GRAPH Search for columns in the Schema explorer  The schema explorer in the Objects and Events module has been upgraded to allow users to search data sources for a specific column name. Users can select a data source from the dropdown and then click the magnifying glass icon to enable the search field. Users can enter their search criteria in this field and only column names matching their criteria will be displayed. Deleting the search criteria or clicking the X button will remove the filter and show all available columns.  PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER Integration of model import and export between PAM and CPM  Once enabled in the Celonis Platform Admin & Settings, you can now seamlessly:Import BPMN models from Process Designer into PAM then reopen them in Process Designer. Export any BPMN model from PAM to Process Designer.If a BPMN model used to create a model in PAM is subsequently updated in Process Designer, you'll be automatically notified and can either update your PAM model or delink your PAM model from the Process Designer version.For more information, see Importing a BPMN model from Process Designer into PAM and Exporting a BPMN model from PAM to CPM.  PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER Removing event logs from a target model  Previously, if you wanted to remove an event log from your target model, you had to delete your target model and recreate it without that event log. Now you can simply select event logs and delete them without having to recreate your target model.For more information, see Removing an event log. PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER Undoing and redoing changes in a target model  You can now undo and redo changes when editing your target model using either the undo/redo buttons that display in the Target Model Editor or standard shortcut keys.For more information, see Undoing and redoing changes in a target model. STUDIO Attribute filter uses Knowledge Model [Private Preview] You can now select the Knowledge Model to use when setting an attribute filter in your Studio Views, a change from previously selecting a Data Model. This update allows you to set filters based on the non-technical name given to attributes, making it easier for business users to filter their data.To set an attribute filter within a View, click Filters - Attribute filter and select from the available Knowledge Model:For more information about View filters, see: Filtering Views. This feature is currently available as a Private Preview only During a Private Preview, only customers who have agreed to our Private Preview usage agreements can access this feature. Additionally, the features documented here are subject to change and / or cancellation, so they may not be available to all users in future.For more information about our Private Preview releases, including the level of Support offered with them, see: Feature release types. STUDIO Build object-centric event logs with visual previews directly in Studio [Private Preview] We've created a visual event log builder for you to construct event logs for object-centric process mining perspectives. You don't need to write PQL statements - just choose a lead object and the events you want to include. You'll immediately get a visual preview of your event log, with an event log table, an edge table for connections, and a graph preview.This release is in Public Preview only: If you would like access to this feature, submit a request using this form: Early Customer Engagement - New Event Log Builder.For more information, see: Event logs (object-centric).This feature is currently available as a Public Preview only During a Public Preview, only eligible customers can access this feature. Additionally, there may be minor updates to the functionality and design of these features when they are released in General Availability.For more information about our Public Preview releases, including the level of Support offered with them, see: Feature release types. STUDIO Divider component added to Views [Private Preview] You can now add horizontal and vertical dividers to your Studio Views, allowing you to visually separate sections and improve your content hierarchy within your View.In this example, horizontal dividers have been used to visually separate different View components:To learn more about creating Views, see: Views.This feature is currently available as a Private Preview only During a Private Preview, only customers who have agreed to our Private Preview usage agreements can access this feature. Additionally, the features documented here are subject to change and / or cancellation, so they may not be available to all users in future.For more information about our Private Preview releases, including the level of Support offered with them, see: Feature release types. STUDIO Excluding components from predefined View filters  You can now exclude select Studio View components from predefined filters on both a View and View tab level.By excluding the component from predefined filters, you're able to maintain the data displayed within them. This can be useful for showing top level KPIs that should be consistent and independent of predefined filters or if you're making side by side comparisons.You can exclude the following Studio components from predefined filters: Case Explorer, Chart (All mark charts - bar, line, point), Condition List, Container and container tabs, Event Explorer, Histogram, KPI Card, KPI List, Network Explorer, Pie chart, Process Explorer, Scatterplot, Table, Text Box, TPT Explorer, and Variant Explorer.For more information, see: Temporary filters for Apps. STUDIO New Process Copilot template for status questions  Process Copilots now offer a customizable template designed to perform status checks on business objects such as invoices, claims, and orders. These templates are pre-built configurations that can be finalized by selecting the specific record and attribute that the user wants to track. These selections are added to the template to build a Process Copilot specifically designed to answer questions about these business objects. These templates make it faster for users to develop Process Copilots to answer real-time questions about the status of any business object. Once configured, these Process Copilots can answer questions about the status of an order or the payment cycle for an invoice using the chat functionality in your Process Copilot or even a third party application such as Microsoft Teams. STUDIO Right-click interactions added to Views  You can now right-click while editing your Studio Views, giving you a number of context specific options. These options include copying and pasting components, moving objects forwards and backwards, accessing the View layout settings, and deleting components.To learn more about creating Studio Views, head to: Views.  STUDIO Uploading images to Views  In addition to adding team logos and hosted images to your Studio Views, you can now upload image files up to 2mb in size using the image component. You can then customize your uploaded image style by choosing the fit, background, alignment, labels, and alt text.In this example, we've added the Celonis logo to our Process Cockpit: To learn more about uploading images to your Views, see: Logos and Images

In ServiceNow, a read replica is a read-only copy of the primary database used to improve performance and scalability. It allows high-volume data reads, like analytics, reporting, or integrations, without impacting the performance of the main (read/write) transactional database.Enabling this option for your ServiceNow extractions uses the parameter 'sysparm_query_category=reporting' in all extraction requests. This will direct the query to the reporting read replica of ServiceNow.To enable this for your ServiceNow extractions, click Data Jobs - Table Configuration and select Extract from read replica:For more information, see: ServiceNow. DATA INTEGRATION Exclude inactive records in SAP Ariba extractions  You can enable the exclusion of inactive records when extracting data from SAP Ariba. If enabled, the platform passes the parameter 'includeInactive=false' in all extraction requests, alerting SAP Ariba to exclude any inactive records on a table level. The option is available for all asynchronous APIs of Ariba (Procurement, Sourcing, Analytical Reporting).We recommend activating this option in specific cases where the SAP Ariba extractions failed due to the data present in the inactive records.To enable this for your asynchronous SAP Ariba extractions, click Data Jobs - Table Configuration and select Exclude inactive records:For more information, see: Asynchronous APIs for SAP Ariba. STUDIO Updated filter dropdowns and table column filtering  We've enhanced the filter dropdown user experience in Views, increasing the ways you can filter both your dropdown component content and applicable table columns.These filter dropdown enhancements include:Filtering your View to include or exclude values. Filtering in bulk by typing text in the search bar and including or excluding values that match the text. Range filtering for number dropdowns to allow you to filter your View by more precise numerical values.In the following example, the updated filter dropdown is being used for a table column. This shows you the different filtering enhancements.For more information about configuring and using filter dropdowns in your Studio Views, see: Filter components STUDIO View preceding and following events in Process Explorer  The event node pop up in Process Explorer has been updated to include a second tab that shows an overview of all events that immediately precede or follow the selected event. By clicking on an event node in Process Explorer, users can now see the details of the selected event on the Occurrences tab and a list of events immediately preceding this event on the Cases from / Cases to tab.NoteThis tab will be titled “Objects from / Objects to” in a multi-object Process Explorer. The Objects from / Object to tab shows a breakdown of preceding/following events for the selected event. In the multi-object Process Explorer, there is a breakdown of the events in each event log. The Preceding Events tab shows a list of all events that occurred immediately before this event and the number of objects in which this occurred. The Following Events tab shows the same overview for all events that occurred immediately following the selected event. On both tabs, the events are displayed in descending order by default, but can be re-sorted by clicking on the Objects header and selecting a different sort order from the dropdown.    Preceding Events tab Following Events tab For more information, see View node details in Process Explorer. STUDIO Create Annotation Builder from table  Annotation Builder is being updated with a new feature that allows users to create an Annotation Builder directly from a View table in Studio. The new "Create Annotation Builder" option is now available on the options menu (three dots) above each View table and creates a new Annotation Builder based on the columns in that table. Selecting this option launches the Create Annotation Builder window that is used to create an initial configuration for this new Annotation Builder that can be modified as needed.For more information see Create an Annotation Builder from a table. STUDIO Insight Explorer updates  Insight Explorer is getting updated with several functional changes to the configuration process. These changes will improve ease of use and provide more control over how insights are generated.Knowledge eligibility pre-checkInsight Explorer now executes a check on the full Knowledge Model when opening the configuration page to determine eligibility, no longer requiring individual checks for each selection. Non-eligible items are indicated with an error icon and items that might need changes are indicated with a warning icon. Eligible items display with no icon, non-eligible items show an error icon, and items that might need changes appear with a warning icon. For more information, see Configure Insight Explorer.Aggregation type input for metricsMetrics no longer need to have a PQL formula surrounded by an explicit aggregation function (AVG, SUM, MEDIAN, etc.) to be added to Insight Explorer. Users can now select a metric and its aggregation type during configuration. For more information, see Aggregation types.Advanced settingsUsers can now edit certain analysis parameters used to generate insights in the advanced settings of Insight Explorer. For more information, see Advanced settings for Insight Explorer.Knowledge Model filter supportUsers can now add filters stored in the Knowledge Model to Insight Explorer by selecting them from the Add filters screen and clicking the "Apply selected filters" button. For more information, see Add filters to Insight Explorer. STUDIO Localized formats based on current region in user profile  We're introducing localized formatting for numbers and dates in your Studio Views, Legacy Views, Knowledge Models, and Apps according to the current location defined in your user profile.These configurations are specific to your profile and can be configured by clicking Edit Profile and selecting your Region:The platform will render all dates and numbers in the localized format when available.For Studio assets to be localized, they need to be updated with the correct formats - see: Localizing number and date formats.  PI GRAPH Search for columns in the Schema explorer  The schema explorer in the Objects and Events module has been upgraded to allow users to search data sources for a specific column name. Users can select a data source from the dropdown and then click the magnifying glass icon to enable the search field. Users can enter their search criteria in this field and only column names matching their criteria will be displayed. Deleting the search criteria or clicking the X button will remove the filter and show all available columns.  PI GRAPH Duplicate relationships and transformations when duplicating object and event types When duplicating a custom object type or custom event type, users can now choose to duplicate its object to object relationships, event to object relationships, and transformations. On the Duplicate type screen, use the checkboxes in the "Also duplicate" section to indicate whether to copy the current relationships and transformations to the new custom type. Once duplicated, the new object type or event type, relationships, and transformations can be edited without impacting the original.NoteObject types and event types from the Celonis catalog cannot be duplicated. For more information, see Creating custom object types and custom event types. TASK MINING Version 2.19.0 of the Task Mining Desktop Application  We've released a new version of the Task Mining Desktop Application, including updated versions of the Chrome and Edge browser extensions. This provides improved support for data gathering where multiple users are accessing a single machine.For more information, see Release/Patch Notes Client and Configuration Editor. API Subscription API added to Process Intelligence  The Celonis Process Intelligence API has been expanded to include the Subscription API. This API can be used to integrate third party workflows and automations with the Celonis Platform. Using the Subscription API, users will be able to subscribe to Knowledge Model triggers in Celonis and receive notifications in real time when specific events occur or certain conditions are met, which allows for faster reactions to these events.The Subscription API enables third party products to discover and subscribe to Knowledge Model triggers, allowing Celonis to automatically initiate third party procedures. For example, this API can be used to create a notification when the Knowledge Model is updated when a purchase order is canceled or a payment is received which will then initiate a workflow in the third party application in response.As part of the Subscription API, new endpoints will be available to help users:List available Knowledge Model triggers Update a subscription with a new destination address and credentials Pause a subscription Resume a subscription Replay a subscription Terminate a subscription List all current subscriptionsFor more information, see Process Intelligence API on the Celonis Developer Portal.

These new features will provide Admins with an additional option for their AI services, as well as providing both more insight into where their assets are being used and more control over the AI Output consumption.Admins will be able to configure the Bring your own Model (BYOM) option to connect self-hosted LLMs on Azure, AWS and OpenAI compliant environments to their Celonis teams. This feature allows Admins to reuse their existing LLM deployments in Celonis. Users can also see the specifics of their AI consumption in the Consumption Details screen by clicking the “See consumption details” in the upper right of the AI Settings screen. From this screen, users can see the total number of outputs being consumed by each Service Provider, as well as a more detailed breakdown of each AI product in the Consumers table, including the assigned LLM, when the product was last used, and the number of outputs consumed. The new AI Assets in Studio tab provides a detailed breakdown of the team’s AI Assets, such as Annotation Builders and Process Copilots, that are currently in use. From this tab, Admins can see where each AI asset is being used, the type of asset, the LLM assigned, and the service provider. Admins can also use the toggle switch to disable individual assets and pause their AI Output consumption. For more information, see AI Settings.DATA INTEGRATION Changes to Celonis IP addresses  We’ve added Celonis IP as origin addresses for eu-2, jp-1, uk-1 and us-2. If you have IP allowlisting configured for Celonis-originating traffic, you must add the following IP addresses to avoid connectivity issues with cloud databases and/or on-premises services: Realm IPs to be added eu-2 20.31.2.184 20.31.2.185 20.31.2.186 jp-1 20.44.169.64 20.44.169.65 20.44.169.66 uk-1 51.142.213.244 51.142.213.245 51.142.213.246 us-2 20.99.152.112 20.99.152.113  For:A full list of Celonis IP as origin addresses for eu-2, jp-1, uk-1 and us-2, see Celonis IPs as origin. Information about subsequent steps, see Action require after 2025-09-17. DATA INTEGRATION Zero-copy connectivity with Microsoft Fabric [Public Preview] You can now establish zero-copy connectivity between your Microsoft Fabric enterprise data lake and the Celonis Platform, allowing you to share data between the platforms with zero latency. This means that any updates in your data lake are automatically shared to your Celonis data pool.The benefits of this connection include:Enables you to mirror your Microsoft Fabric data to Celonis via a zero-copy integration. Embeds Celonis as a native workload within your Microsoft Fabric environment. Secures your data as it remains in its original location, preserving your data governance.To learn more about connecting to your Microsoft Fabric account, see: Microsoft Fabric.MACHINE LEARNING Updated user interface for the Machine Learning Workbench  The user interface for the Machine Learning Workbench (MLWB) is being updated with a cleaner and more modern look that is more aligned with the rest of the Celonis platform. This new interface does not provide any additional functionality, so it will not change how users interact with their existing workbenches, but this update will make it easier for Celonis to release new MLWB features in the future. This new interface will be applied to all existing workbenches automatically, however, users will still be able to access the previous interface by clicking the Back to the old UI link in the upper right corner. Users can then click the Go to the new UI link in the older interface to return to the updated version. PI GRAPH Run multiple data jobs for different perspectives You can now run multiple object-centric data jobs in parallel for different perspectives. If there are overlaps in your required objects or events, the respective transformation will be queued to avoid read-write conflicts.In this example, a 'Sales Order' object is being used in both the Accounts Receivable (AR) and Order Management (OM) processes. These data jobs are scheduled to run at the same time:When you check the transformation logs, you can then seen that the OM task is queued while the AR task runs. Once the AR task has finished running, the OM automatically executes:For more information, see: Creating custom transformations. PI GRAPH Transformation enhancements  We've made a number of enhancements to our Objects & Events transformations, including the following:Running arbitrary SQL: You can now run any SQL in the SQL editor, regardless of whether the ID column in populated. This enables you to write directly in the SQL editor, rather than returning to the Data Integration area to write a query. Script errors now highlighted: When running a transformation, script errors are now highlighted. A warning message is displaying which details the missing objects, lines, and columns, making it easier for you to locate and correct issues. Select perspectives when manually running data jobs: When executing an object-centric data jobs manually, you can now select the relevant perspective(s). The relevant transformations for this perspective are then run automatically. Duplicate primary key errors: Rather than waiting until the end of the pipeline for the data model load, duplicate primary keys now cause an error directly within the transformations. Dynamic sizing of information in transformations editor: You can now dynamically view relevant information such as the Data Source schema explorer without the need to expand/shrink panels. This reduces the number of clicks needed, significantly saving you time.For more information about modelling your objects and events, see: Creating custom transformations. PI GRAPH Upgrades to the import from table process  The Import from table process in the Objects and Events module has been updated with the following changes: When importing from a table, users can now create relationships between objects being imported and existing object types. Previously, relationships could only be created with other object types being imported. With this upgrade, the Target dropdown on the Create object to object relationship screen now includes “Existing Object Types” in addition to the objects being imported. Selecting one of these options allows users to create a relationship between an object being imported and those existing object types. If the user selects the foreign key from the source object, the transformation will still be created automatically when selecting an existing object type as the target. When creating an object type by importing from a table, users will now receive the Import from table prompt to choose their data source and begin the import process. Previously, users would see a blank screen and had to click the Import button again to begin the import process. This new prompt simplifies the import process and guides users through selecting their data source, choosing the tables to import and mapping the table columns. The process for creating new object types has been modified so that valid transformations will be enabled by default. When the new object type is created, the transformations will be validated automatically and set to “enabled” by default. The discard changes dialog has been updated for clarity. This dialog now reads “You have unfinished work” to communicate that the import process has not been completed. This dialog is only displayed if the tables have been selected and the user clicks the “Cancel” link. If the user clicks “Cancel” before selecting tables, the dialog will not be displayed and the user will return to the Objects screen. PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER Support added for dynamically-generated or relabelled events and case-centric data models  Process Adherence Manager now supports dynamically-generated or relabelled events, allowing you to specify the granularity of your process by adding attributes to existing event types. This means you don't need to know all the event types you'll need when you start creating your model; instead you can simply and flexibly add them as required.You can define dynamically-generated or relabelled events in the following ways:In the Object and Event Log Builder. In the Knowledge Model event log definition using PQL.You can also rename dynamically-generated or relabelled events in the PQL Editor.We’ve also added support for case-centric data models, meaning Process Adherence Manager now works for both object-centric and case-centric data models.To support these enhancements, provide better alignment with Studio and give a more consistent experience across the Celonis Platform, we've also made the following changes:Lead event logs are no longer used in Model Miner.  Dedicated event tables are no longer created for each event type; instead all event logs are added to a single Process Adherence Manager event table. When exploring deviations, data coverage now shows the percentage of all cases across all involved event logs (weighted average). We’ve removed the event/event log filter to improve consistency with Views.STUDIO Copying filters between Views [Private Preview] Any filters you set in a View can now also be copied into other Views within your Celonis Platform team, saving you from manually configuring them each time. Copied filters are saved on a clipboard for 10 minutes, with a prompt for you to apply the filter when you open subsequent Views. To learn more about copying filters between Studio Views, see: Copying filters between Views.During a Private Preview, only customers who have agreed to our Private Preview usage agreements can access this feature. Additionally, the features documented here are subject to change and / or cancellation, so they may not be available to all users in future.For more information about our Private Preview releases, including the level of Support offered with them, see: Feature release types. STUDIO Custom KPI Groups in Process Explorer and Variant Explorer  A new feature has been added to both Process Explorer and Variant Explorer which enables analysts to create groups of custom process KPIs that can be displayed in the process graph. Analyst users can create a KPI Group by selecting existing process-related KPIs or defining their own KPIs using the visual editor. The analyst can then share these KPI Groups with their end users who will be able to display these KPI Groups in the process graph of their Process Explorer or Variant Explorer. KPI Groups can be created for both case-centric (single event log, multi-event log) and object-centric process exploration components.NoteCustom KPI Groups are only available in Studio Views. For components created in Legacy Views, KPIs are still defined using YAML in the Knowledge Model.The new built-in visual editor allows users to create KPIs without advanced YAML skills and speeds up the creation process for new KPIs. Users are able to define KPIs directly in Studio without having to switch to the Knowledge Model or perform manual coding.Both KPI Groups and the individual KPIs within those groups are created and stored in a Knowledge Model. As a result, if a change is made to an individual KPI, that change is automatically updated in any KPI Groups to which that KPI was added.For more information see Custom KPI Groups in Process Explorer and Custom KPI Groups in Variant Explorer. STUDIO Updated Python tool for Process Copilots  The Python tool in Process Copilots is designed to allow ad-hoc Python code executions. With this launch, we’re releasing a visual editor for the Python tool and allowing users to customize the tool. This editor can be added to the configuration settings of a Process Copilot as a tool to utilize both of these configuration methods.In the Intelligent Configuration, the Large Language Model (LLM) generates Python code based on the questions users ask to this Process Copilot. For Process Copilots utilizing the Intelligent Configuration, the Python code is generated ad-hoc as questions are asked. In the Intelligent Configuration, to run Python code, the LLM needs a dataset on which to run the code. To provide the Python tool with an available dataset, you need to have at least one data retrieval tool activated (get_data, pql_tool, get_process_data - depending on the use case). In the Custom Configuration you can manually define the dataset to run the Python code on. Users can then enter their Python code in an editable interface which will work dynamically to expand the code as it is written. This interface also allows users to define which inputs can be used as variables or parameters by end users when asking questions in the chat. Users can also use the built-in code assistant to create their Python code using natural language commands to describe the use for this code.For more information, see Tool Activation.

For example, users can hide an activity that occurs in all cases or activities that are generated automatically as part of the workflow. By hiding these activities, the user can focus on the activities they are most interested in.NoteThis feature is only accessible in Process Explorer when using sliders to control the process graph and will not be available when using the panel.The menu is displayed in the upper right of the Process Explorer and shows both the total number of activities and the number of activities currently selected, such as 17 of 21 events in the multi-object screenshot below. After clicking to expand the menu, users can select the check boxes to indicate which activities to include in the process graph. Removing the check mark will cause an activity to be hidden. Activities menu - case centric Events menu - multi-object Once all activities have been selected, click Update to apply the changes and refresh the process graph. The totals and KPIs on the process graph are updated based on the selected activities. The global sliders are also updated to reflect the total number of available activities based on the menu selections.NoteHiding an activity from the process graph does not filter out cases with that activity, it only prevents it from displaying in the graph. The counts in the process graph will be updated when an activity is hidden and are updated again if an activity is added back to the process graph.For more information, see Show / Hide events. STUDIO Create custom KPI Groups in Process Explorer and Variant Explorer  This feature is currently available as a Private Preview onlyDuring a Private Preview, only customers who have agreed to our Private Preview usage agreements can access this feature. Additionally, the features documented here are subject to change and / or cancellation, so they may not be available to all users in future.For more information about our Private Preview releases, including the level of Support offered with them, see: Feature release types.A new feature is being added to both Process Explorer and Variant Explorer which will enable analysts to create groups of custom process KPIs that can be displayed in the process graph. Analyst users can create a KPI Group by selecting existing process-related KPIs or defining their own KPIs using the visual editor. The analyst can then share these KPI Groups with their end users who will be able to display these KPI Groups in the process graph of their Process Explorer or Variant Explorer. KPI Groups can be created for both case-centric (single event log, multi-event log) and object-centric process exploration components.NoteCustom KPI Groups are only available in Studio Views. For components created in Legacy Views, KPIs are still defined using YAML in the Knowledge Model.The new built-in visual editor allows users to create KPIs without advanced YAML skills and speeds up the creation process for new KPIs. Users are able to define KPIs directly in Studio without having to switch to the Knowledge Model or perform manual coding.Both KPI Groups and the individual KPIs within those groups are created and stored in a Knowledge Model. As a result, if a change is made to an individual KPI, that change is automatically updated in any KPI Groups to which that KPI was added.For more information see Custom KPI Groups in Process Explorer and Custom KPI Groups in Variant Explorer. PI Graph Object & Events enhancements  We've made two enhancements to our Objects & Events product area:Object data preview: You can now preview your objects once a transformation has successfully run, giving you a 100 row sample of the data.You can access a data preview while viewing the object by clicking Data preview (or alternatively clicking Options - Data preview for each object). Enhanced integration between Perspectives and Studio: When viewing your perspectives, you can now see the last time the data model loaded and which Studio packages the perspectives are used in. You can also click the data model name to view a preview.For more information about modelling your objects and events, see: Modeling objects and events. CELONIS FOR CONSULTING New project plans released and upgrades to existing plans With this release, we've added five new project plans to our Celonis for Consulting product area.

APPS Platform Adoption Monitor app PI GRAPH  Skip simple transformations until data model load  STUDIO Embedding external webpages using iframes in Views STUDIO  Create and embed reusable View modules in Studio packages  STUDIO Knowledge Model Link  STUDIO Recently deleted package assets stored for 7 days  STUDIO EXPORT ALL service permissions added STUDIO Chart component accessibility update Keep track of Celonis platform changes:Explore Planned Releases Subscribe to our bi-weekly email for a summary of what’s changed ​​​​​​ Sign up separately for platform status alerts. APPS Platform Adoption Monitor app The Platform Adoption Monitor app is available to download from the Celonis Marketplace. We've created it to improve on the platform adoption dashboard that was only available to admins in Celonis teams (see Platform adoption dashboard). The app includes views for you to track logins, active users, and usage of published Studio packages and apps, like you could with the platform adoption dashboard, but with more statistics and the improved functionality of the new Studio experience. Because it's a Marketplace app, you can give users who aren't admins permission to see the views. You can also edit the views, or create your own platform adoption tracking views based on the case-centric data model supplied with our extractor.To use the app, you'll need to enable the login history and the Studio tracking service in your Celonis team. The app can pseudonymize the identifiers for individual users - check whether your local legislation requires that. For the app documentation, see Platform Adoption Monitor app. PI GRAPH  Skip simple transformations until data model load  To reduce the time it takes to run your object-centric transformations, we now skip over any simple transformation scripts that don't include a join or WHERE clause, and aren't new or changed. We can do this for attribute scripts and relationship scripts (though relationship scripts usually will involve a join). We'll comment the skipped transformations out in the data pool, and replace them at publish time with a view that we only load when you load a perspective that uses the object type or event type. If you change the transformation script (or we do as part of an update to the Celonis catalog), we'll make the edits to the view when you republish your transformations.STUDIO Embedding external webpages using iframes in Views You can now embed iframes into your Studio Views, allowing you to display both static and dynamic external content within your applications. Static content: An iframe where the URL displayed doesn't change, for example Celonis.com. Static content is the same for all users. Dynamic content: An frames where a placeholder variable is used to determine the URL, often triggered by user inputs (such as entering a value or selecting from a list). This placeholder variable can be combined with other View components, including input boxes, input lists, and input dropdowns so users can dynamically view the iframe content relevant to them. In this dynamic content example, an input dropdown has been configured so the user can select different Celonis.com product pages to display in the frame.To learn more about embedding iframes to your Studio Views, see:  iframes STUDIO  Create and embed reusable View modules in Studio packages View modules are a package asset type that allow you to re-use configured View components across multiple Views within a Studio package. Instead of configuring each View from scratch, you can save time by centrally managing and then embedding a module to your View. And by editing a View module, all embedded instances of that module are automatically updated too. STUDIO Knowledge Model Link  The Knowledge Model Link in the PQL editor has been enhanced, enabling consistent naming and descriptions for your calculations across the Celonis Platform.Included in the Knowledge Model Link enhancements are:Read-only mode removed: You can now edit the content within the PQL editor, removing the previous link. Automatic re-linking: When reverting any edits you've made, the Knowledge Model Link automatically reappears. Auto-generated attributes supported: If an attribute is auto-generated, the Knowledge Model Link is now available. Component level overwrites: You can now change the display name, format, and unit for a component without losing the rest of the metadata.For more information about using the PQL editor, see: PQL editor.STUDIO Recently deleted package assets stored for 7 days Deleted package assets, such as Views and Knowledge Models, are now stored for 7 days in the Recently deleted area of your package settings. Deleted assets can then be restored individually, returning them to the list of active assets in the package.After 7 days, recently deleted assets are then permanently deleted and can't be recovered or restored.For more information about managing packages and package settings, see: Settings. STUDIO EXPORT ALL service permissions added We've introduced an enhancement to our Studio service permissions that gives admins granular control over exporting content (i.e. packages, assets) to other teams. The EXPORT ALL permission, managed from the Permissions area of Admin & Settings, gives users the following abilities:Copy-To: The user can utilize the exporting functionalities copy-to to export package and asset configurations to other teams (i.e. instances). This feature can be accessed from within Studio by clicking Options - Copy to: Content-cli: The user can utilize the content-cli to export package and asset configurations.Currently, users with EDIT permissions can export content without restrictions. When this feature is introduced, these users will receive EXPORT_ALL permission by default to reflect their current capabilities, so they won’t be affected by the migration. We recommend reviewing which users shouldn't be able to export content outside of their teams, and to proactively remove the EXPORT_ALL permission.The EXPORT_ALL permission requires users to have EDIT permission to ensure proper access, without it, the content won’t be visible.For more information about Studio service permissions, see: Studio service permissions. STUDIO Chart component accessibility update  To improve our component accessibility and ensure sufficient contrast in data visualizations, we’ve introduced automatic mark borders on Studio charts. This change adds a darker border around light-colored marks to improve visibility and meet contrast ratio guidelines. The update helps all users—especially those with visual impairments— better interpret and gain insights from their data.This improvement is part of our ongoing commitment to inclusive design and accessibility best practices.To learn more about creating and configuring charts in your Studio Views, see: Charts.

You can still use the existing "Custom processes" category for custom process tags, or you can create new categories in the Filters panel on the Objects and Events pages of the user interface.To add a new category, click the plus sign at the top of the Filters panel to open Add category at the end of the panel. Type the name of your new category and click Save to add it to the Filters panel. The category name can be up to 41 characters long (including spaces), and it must be different to the existing category names. Your new category appears in the Filters panel in edit mode. To add each custom tag, click Add tag. Type the tag name, then select the checkmark icon to add it. Custom tags can be up to 41 characters long (including spaces), and they must be unique across all the categories. When you've added all the tags you want, click Done. To edit the category name or one of the tags you've added to it, open the context menu (the three vertical dots) for the category, and select Edit. While you're in edit mode, you can rename a tag or the category, add or delete tags, or delete the whole category. PI GRAPH Issues to fix displayed in Objects and Events dashboard  The Issues to fix list is now generally available in all Celonis teams. In the Objects and Events dashboard, the list displays any critical issues that you need to fix in order to make your object-centric data model work. It includes issues that stop you from saving or publishing your model, issues that stop a transformation script from running, and errors while the data model for a perspective is loading. You can expand any item to see what the problem is and use the link to view it. If there aren't any critical errors, we'll tell you that too, so you don't have to look through the individual item lists and logs for critical errors. PROCESS DESIGNER Applied filters added to search results  With this release, you can now see all filters that have been applied to a search within the Process Designer.For more information about Celonis Process Management or the Process Designer, see: Process Designer User Guide. PROCESS NAVIGATOR Navigation and process journey enhancements  With this latest Process Navigator release, we've made the following enhancements:The Process Journal has been updated to include a Process Journey view. This view is a less-technical version of the Process Model view, offering information about the sub-steps in a process to users who are unfamiliar with BPMN models.For more information, see Drilling down with Process Navigator. The Process Navigator homepage now includes side navigation. This navigation provides an overview of all your processes and content at a glance.For more information, see Getting started with Process Navigator. STUDIO Configure event count filters for Views  With this release, you will be able to apply event count filters to Views that have process filters enabled. Event count filters enable you to select objects where an event occurs less or more times than a defined start and end threshold e.g. only objects where "Invoice paid" happens more than once.In this example, the Sales Order Activity event log will be filtered to show only the Confirm order event. Using this filter, you can see the event count distribution where the selected event occurred zero, twelve, and twenty four times per object.For more information about configuring advanced filters, see: Advanced filters.And to learn more about process filters, see: Process filters. STUDIO Process Copilots are now in General Availability  Process Copilots are AI-enhanced Studio assets that allow you to interact conversationally with your Celonis data. Each Process Copilot is configured with one of your Knowledge Models to help you analyze your data using predefined prompts or asking your own questions to generate a response in a variety of formats.Each Process Copilot will only have access to the data you choose from the selected Knowledge Model. You can create multiple Process Copilots to work with different Knowledge Models or to focus on different use cases within your data.Once configured, Process Copilots can be utilized by any Apps user to answer questions regarding their data, build custom graphs and tables, or look for improvement opportunities within the data. These conversations are saved in the Celonis Platform and can be shared with other users with access to Studio.Users can interact with a Process Copilot through quickstart questions, template prompts, dropdown lists of suggested interactions or a free text field where they can ask their own questions. Admin users can also create their own KPIs or commonly asked questions that will be pinned to the start screen as a launching point for each new session.For more information, refer to Process Copilots. STUDIO Annotation Builders are now in General Availability  Studio’s new Annotation Builder is an AI-enhanced asset that enriches the data in your Process Intelligence Graph using Large Language Models to interpret your data.The Annotation Builder is a no-code environment that uses GenAI to structure your data and reason through it to generate decision and action recommendations. You will give Annotation Builder information and guidance in natural language describing how you want it to make decisions and it will use its ability to process natural language to determine which decision makes the most sense. Annotation Builder will produce AI annotations that enrich your data, making it more valuable for analysis and automation.For more information, see Annotation Builder. STUDIO New validation table for Annotation Builders  The Annotation Builder asset in Studio is introducing a new feature that generates a preconfigured "Validation Table" that allows analysts to evaluate the accuracy of the annotations being generated. This table includes the original data, the AI-generated annotations (e.g., predicted categories, reasoning, etc.), and columns where analysts can add their feedback directly into the table using free text fields and pre-populated dropdowns.Analysts can generate the validation table automatically by clicking the Use in a View button on the Annotation Builder screen. The validation tables can be added as a new View in Studio or embedded in an existing Studio View. The table is generated automatically based on the annotations generated with no additional set up or configuration required.In the validation table, analysts can review the individual annotations, add comments, and collect data to improve the prompts used by this Annotation Builder. If the analyst provides feedback in the validation table, the accuracy statistics for this Annotation Builder are updated automatically and displayed on the Annotation Builder overview screen. STUDIO Process Copilots for external systems  Process Copilots can now be created for use with external systems such as Microsoft Teams or Slack. These new Process Copilots serve as a conversational chat assistant that runs on the Celonis Platform while communicating with an external system via the Celonis Intelligence API. Users can post a message in Teams or Slack that is transmitted to a Process Copilot published on the Celonis Platform and the response from the Process Copilot is returned to the external system using the same API.These new Process Copilots are configured and published using the same steps as the current Process Copilots. Once the Process Copilot has been published, the Process Copilot API specification is customized to integrate with the external system. This API specification can be copied or downloaded to use when configuring the API connection in the external system.Note: When configuring the Process Copilot, note that tools containing View components cannot be used for this type of configuration.When the API is called from the external system, the integration is used to pass messages between the Celonis Platform and the external system. The connection to the Celonis Platform can be authenticated by using OAuth to provide user access or creating an application key to allow system access.For more information, see Create for external systems. STUDIO Plain text variable behavior updated When creating and using plain text variables (also known as runtime variables) in your Studio packages, the following behavior has been updated:The value of the plain text variable in Studio is now published to Apps, provided that this value remains unchanged in Apps (i.e. App user don’t update the variable in Apps, for example with an input). Previously, this value was published from Studio to Apps only the first time the variable was published.We've also added a column called Value in Apps, allowing you to efficiently view and reference the value of the variable within the existing app.For more information about Studio package variables, see: Variables STUDIO Component configuration UX updates  We've made a number of user experience enhancements to our Studio component configuration panels, including the following:Add data to component: You can now click 'Add data' within the component configuration, allowing you to select data via the PQL editor. Filter queries visually connected: Filters and query openers are now visually connected to their respective queries, so it’s easier to understand when multiple queries are present in a component. Breakdown selector / node switcher: In a table's breakdown selector and Network Explorer's node switcher, the radio button now highlights the default selection. You can also now expand or collapse these sections as needed. STUDIO Scheduling View reports This feature is currently available as a Private Preview only During a Private Preview, only customers who have agreed to our Private Preview usage agreements can access this feature. Additionally, the features documented here are subject to change and / or cancellation, so they may not be available to all users in future.For more information about our Private Preview releases, including the level of Support offered with them, see: Feature release types.In addition to manually exporting your Views as PDFs, you can now schedule automated emails to be sent with the View report PDFs attached. These emails can be sent on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, with the ability to customize the email and the PDF settings for each report.You can schedule your Studio View reports within a View by clicking Share or export View - Schedule reports:Once scheduled, your Studio View reports can be edited, permanently deleted, and activated / deactivated depending on its status:For more information about scheduling View reports, see: View Reports. STUDIO Maximum View height increased  The maximum height for Studio View is now 10,000 pixels, having previously been set at 3,000 pixels. When editing a custom height View, your View height can be configured in two places:From the View settings menu: At the bottom of the View editing area: While the maximum height for custom Views is 10,000 pixels, we recommend designing your apps to focus on key themes, patterns, and focus areas.

STUDIO Create a Process Copilot from a Studio View ​​​​​​​ STUDIO View preferences kept when re-entering View edit mode  PI GRAPH Perspective logs shown with transformation logs  PI GRAPH Usability enhancements for modeling objects and events  DATA INTEGRATION SAP ECC and S/4 HANA extractor version 3.9.6 ​​​​​​​ BUSINESS APPS Accounts Receivable Starter Kit upgrade BUSINESS APPS Procurement Starter Kit upgrade​​​​​​​ BUSINESS APPS Planning Parameter Optimization app upgrade BUSINESS APPS Payment Terms Harmonizer app upgrade​​​​​​​ Keep track of Celonis platform changes:Explore Planned Releases Subscribe to our bi-weekly email for a summary of what’s changed ​​​​​​ Sign up separately for platform status alerts.  STUDIO Create a Process Copilot from a Studio View ​​​​​​​Studio is being upgraded to make it easier to create a Process Copilot by adding the ability to create a new Process Copilot directly from a View. This feature allows users to create a new Process Copilot specifically for the data in the current Studio View without any additional configuration required. This new option will streamline the creation of a Process Copilot and give users a starting point to build upon. Users can still make additional changes to this Process Copilot by customizing the configuration settings. NoteAny components in the selected View that reference a PQL statement rather than a Knowledge Model item will not be included in the new Process Copilot.From any Studio View, users can select “Create Process Copilot” from the options menu and choose the type of Process Copilot to create. The Process Copilot is generated automatically and all the required configurations are completed based on the data in that Studio View.The new Process Copilot will have access to most of the data from the Knowledge Model for this Studio View. Any data in the Knowledge Model that is filtered out by an asset filter will not be available to the Process Copilot.Users can then start asking questions about their KPIs and attributes. For example, looking at the image above, users can ask questions such as “What’s my Net Order Value?” or “How are the Sales Orders broken down by Company Code?”. It is important to remember that this Process Copilot will only have access to the data from that Studio View and cannot answer questions about any of your data outside of that View.For more information, see Create a Process Copilot from a Studio View. 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.1:37For 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. PI GRAPH 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. PI GRAPH 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.  DATA INTEGRATION 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: SAP_BASIS version Minimal support package 700 SP28 701 SP13 702 SP13 710 SP16 711 SP11 720 SP08 730 SP08 731 SP05 740+ any 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).Also see documentation for Continuous Extractor for SAP ECC and S/4 HANA. BUSINESS APPS Accounts Receivable Starter Kit upgrade For this release of the Accounts Receivable Starter Kit, we’ve added a Value Framing view to the app’s existing setup, validation, and process cockpit views. The Value Framing view picks out opportunities for improvement in your Accounts Receivable process, including labor productivity, working capital, and revenue. Each value opportunity has its own tab for you to explore detailed metrics and get deeper insights into its business impact. When you’ve validated the opportunity, you can input your own framed value assessment for the Identified Value overview. For the instructions to upgrade the Starter Kit, see Updating the object-centric Accounts Receivable Starter Kit. BUSINESS APPS Procurement Starter Kit upgrade​​​​​​​For the latest version of the object-centric Procurement Starter Kit, which is built on the new Studio experience, we've upgraded the process execution model in the Process Cockpit to give you deeper insights into your procurement operations. The new model includes:Expanded coverage of changes to purchase orders, order items, and requisition items. Tracking of canceled invoice items. Visibility for goods receipts and their reversals. A comprehensive description of the Purchase to Pay and Procurement processes.We've also added new views to monitor and analyze KPIs for on-time delivery and on-time in-full delivery, purchasing behaviors such as contract usage, and automation activities.To upgrade, download version 2.8.0 of the object-centric Procurement Starter Kit from the Celonis Marketplace. If you want to migrate your existing setup, you can copy the Knowledge Model and Process Explorer from your previous version into the new Studio package. BUSINESS APPS Planning Parameter Optimization app upgrade In this release of the Planning Parameter Optimization app for Inventory Management, we've added tasks to update purchase lead times and production lead times. You can download the new version from the Celonis marketplace. Updating the object-centric Inventory Management Planning Parameter Optimization app has the instructions to update the app. BUSINESS APPS Payment Terms Harmonizer app upgrade​​​​​​​In this upgrade for the Payment Terms Harmonizer app for the Procurement process, we've added the Vendor Invoice and Accounting Documents objects, and the Renegotiate Contracts, Solve Mismatch, and Update Vendor Master Data tasks.
