I've made a change to an existing application which has included a new CDT. I've added this CDT to the applications existing Data Store. I've also created an export file that includes the new CDT and the Data Store.

When I import the new CDT and updated Data Store to the live environment is there any impact of existing processes that may be referencing other CDTs that in that Data Store at precisely the time that I am doing the import, please?

Thanks

If you passed a CDT byreference() into a sub-process, then updating that CDT would cause a conflict when the sub-process is called. If not, as long as you are only adding new fields to the CDT it shouldn't cause any issues, but you should be careful that when you use a write-to-datastore with that CDT that you aren't going to be blanking out the data in the new fields if your process isn't using a query rule to pull the CDT first.
