For Release 13.2, changes were made to the Datamart Extraction job. The result of the changes is improved performance for a full refresh of the Datamart. The job has been optimized to run faster. The job does a full refresh of the Datamart tables every time it runs. We recommend running the Datamart Extraction job after the upgrade is complete and during off-peak hours.
Upgrade Action: None

The removal of old Portfolio features affected the following add-ins:
All three add-ins had portfolio-related portlets that were removed. For BRM Accelerator and NPD, the pages that displayed the portlets were left in place. The pages were left to accommodate customers who placed custom portlets or other valid portlets on the pages. If no custom or other portlets are present, the pages appear blank.
For the PMO Accelerator, the pages that contained portfolio-related portlets were removed. For the list of portlets and other features that were removed from CA Clarity PPM, see the section named "Removal of the Old Portfolio Feature."
Upgrade Action: If you use BRM Accelerator or NPD, review your Studio portlet pages and delete any that are empty.
