  • Hi The following smart services have moved to the deprecated palette. It is recommended to use base product functionality where possible: Export CDT to Excel, Export SQL to Excel, Export SQL to FlatFile

  • What base product functionality reproduces Export CDT to Excel?  With it, I was able to have a data set pre-loaded in a process variable and then transform certain columns as necessary for friendlier display - i.e. translating messy-looking dateTime columns into just a date in the customer's preferred date format, or taking bare usernames and translating those to their full name, etc... all while writing to a pre-formatted template with customized column widths and filtering applied to the column headers, as well as a cover sheet listing metrics like date generated and filters elected by the user.   Is there new base product functionality that reproduces this that we haven't been told about yet?
