Screens and User Experience
Select & Options Inputs
The June release includes a feature the UI team has been working on for some time - an improved Select input element which addresses some of the most requested enhancements to the Combobox element. What enhancements are those? First and foremost, one of the biggest complaints about the Combobox is that it only displays and searches against a single field on a record.

Orchestration and Data Flows
Data Flow Schedule System
This month's release includes a new system for managing schedules in data flows which allows easy configuration of when flows run and what parameters they run with.

Security and Administration
Enterprise Administration Updates
This month's release includes a wide range of changes to support more seamless management of enterprises, tenants, and users. First, tenants and tenant users now has an Active field which determines whether the tenant is accessible.
