Load Metadata – change the default behaviour to “not selected checkbox” for the new tables

All new Tables receive by default a selected checkbox and therefore are being loaded by the next Load Metadata process, if they remain selected.

If a lot of new not relevant Tables are coming, it means, that all of them should be excluded manually. But it is not very practically, because it would be easier to add all new needed Tables at one time manually instead of examine all the selected Tables in the List trying to find out, if it is a new Table, which I do not need or it is an old/new Table what I need. It is dramatically, when I only need to reload metadata because of some new columns in some already loaded Tables. If I do not want to receive all new Tables within this operation as well, I should extra examine the whole List as described above. Moreover, when I would like to make this refresh from the Data module, I can’t exclude these additional not needed new Tables from there at all.

    We now have include/exclude options for table loading to address this area. Thank you for pointing this out - additional documentation is needed for this as well. In the meantime, feel free to reach out and we can provide additional information.
