Hi, The only thing you currently can do is filter out late data using the CURRENT_WATERMARK function since Flink 1.14. There's a SQL Cookbook recipe on this function which can be found at https://github.com/ververica/flink-sql-cookbook/blob/main/other-builtin-functions/03_current_watermark/03_current_watermark.md
