Derived templates (element and event frame) will not allow for inherited attributes to be used as the "Default Attribute". This breaks inherited analyses that use the "Default Attribute". The only workaround is to override the the attribute, which...

This would allow for validation of input unit of measure during expressions.

Allow analyses to have both Scheduled and Event triggers, rather than having to choose just one of the triggering mechanisms

Use case: 1. An element has an attribute that looks up information on equipment configuration (ex: a pump rate) 2.  Due to an equipment change, the lookup table and the element were increased in version 3. A backfill needed to be performed o...

I would like to be able to do a Rollup Analysis of Booleans attributes, without casting or converting the boolean. As Rollup Functions I would suggest: Logical AND, Logical OR and maybe Count of True/False. It can be use to create a Combined Stat...

There are no number base conversion functions available in AF Analysis. There are many situations where I need to convert numbers between different 'number bases'. I frequently work with MODBUS devices and there are many times number base conversi...

It would be great to start an analysis from another analysis or to trigger an analysis on (successful) completion of another analysis. Nice would be to have a function like Call("AnalysisName"). Real great would be if Call() would return a retur...
