Question on impact of modifying CDT on a process model that uses them

Rajasekhar Pamidipati
A Score Level 2

As per our Appian documentation,
If we do modification to a CDT,(without closing the referencing process models),the changes made to the CDT won't be reflected automatically in the referenced process models.But in my case,I have updated a CDT where my process model is in editing mode.However after saving the changes in the CDT when I closed and opened my process model again, I noticed that the CDT has been updated automatically.I'm working in 16.2 version. Is there any enhancement on CDT updates?

    I believe the "refer to different versions in different process models" is about when you have a running instance of a process, which would have the old version of a data type (say version 1), but then if it launches a new instance of a subprocess with that same CDT, that subprocess would be using version 2 of the data type. It's not recommended to pass CDT's by reference in any case, as far as I know.
