New Features
Distinct Count of Entities
| You can now configure an analysis to show the total distinct count of an entity type, such as a count of distinct operating physicians or distinct patients. This new "Entity Count" metric is available for all CCGs and categories. To show a distinct count in an analysis, select the new "Entity Count" metric from the Volume & Entity Count group on the Analysis Builder Metrics tab. Then, edit the metric and set the distinct value that you want to count. On the metric configuration screen, the Calculation Type is assigned to "Entity Count," and a new Count of Entity setting appears below it. Select the entity that you want to count from the Count of Entity drop-down. |

Bulk Extracts
Bulk Extracts have three new features that make extracts more flexible and easier to work with. These features are:
- Re-run multiple extracts simultaneously
- Batch large requests into multiple extracts
- Create custom extracts for large data requests
Re-Run Multiple Extracts at Once
You can now select multiple extracts (up to 50) from the Bulk Extracts list and re-run them simultaneously. To re-run multiple extracts:
- On the Bulk Extract screen, click Re-Run Multiple Extracts in the top right of the screen. The Select One or More Extracts to Run Again window opens.
- Select the extracts that you want to re-run. You can select individual extracts or use the Select All option to quickly select every one (or the first 50 if the list has more than 50 extracts).
- To use a different date range for the extract re-run, select the Override Date Ranges option and pick the range you want to apply to all the selected extracts.
- Click Run.
The selected extracts run and are added to the Bulk Extracts list for downloading.

Batch Request Bulk Extracts
| The Batch Bulk Extract feature enables you to batch large extract requests into multiple files for downloading. To create a batch request for an extract, select Batch Request from the extract's Options menu. The Batch Bulk Extract window opens. Select the category that you want to use to batch the individual files. For example, if you select the Age Band category, the system will create a separate extract file for each age band value (e.g., 65-74, 75-84, etc.). After you select a category, a list of unique values for the selected category appears, along with the file name to be assigned to each file. Note: The selected category must result in less than 51 files. If it has too many unique values, a message appears, and you need to select a different category. If needed, you can edit the individual file names or edit the file name pattern in the pattern text box above the list of files. The pattern will be applied to all extracted files. Click Run to run the batch request. The batch extract files are added to the Bulk Extracts list.

Custom Extracts
| A new Custom Extract feature provides a way for Clarify users to provide customers with very large extracts of patient lists or analyses through Atlas. Using Custom Extract, you can add the JSON configuration needed to create the custom extract. To open the Custom Bulk Extract window, select Custom Extract from an extract's Options menu. In the window's Extract Configuration JSON section, you can replace the content with JSON from an existing analysis or dashboard tile or add additional parameters as needed. To get JSON from an existing analysis, select Advanced > View Request Parameters from its Options menu, copy the content and paste it into the Custom Extract Configuration JSON area. You can add additional parameters as needed to complete the configuration. You can also edit the extract's file name before clicking Run to run the custom extract. Note: For help with configuring the extract, reach out to an Atlas Product Manager.

Improvements
- Metric calculations now support a "per X" calculation on percentiles for an entity. For example, you can configure the metric calculation to show the number of Acute IP physicians for the 5th percentile. To configure the metric for this calculation, edit the metric and set the Calculation type to Percentile > Per X unit > 5-95th Percentile. You can set the per unit to 1, 100, 1000, or 10000 units.

Fixed Issues
- Fixed an issue that prevented users from downloading existing values for Custom Fields. If a custom field has existing values, you can now download it to a CSV file.
