Asset Framework (AF)

If a PI Point doesn't exist for an element attribute as part of a template, allow us to link the tag value to null. Currently if the PI point doesn't exist, the integrator or other client tools will raise PI point not found message. To get around ...

As we adopt more and more AF databases as part of how we do business, the ability to easily maintain them becomes more and more important. We have created documents to detail the business process flow to follow to update AF databases, but these a...

When manually creating an AF Table (i.e., an internal AF table) in PI System Explorer having the ability to specify a NULL value would be beneficial. Not all datasets require a value for each cell and not all tables need to be linked to, or import...

Currently when viewing Time Series Data for a numeric attribute value type (e.g Double, Single) in PI System Explorer, sorting the value column will sort the results alphabetically (e.g. 1, 10, 2, 20, 3...) and not by size (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 10, 20). ...

Transfer Saved searches: This option will allow transferring event frames "saved searches" from one computer to another. For customers who have many search criteria, it is time-consuming to rebuild again on another PC.

I would like to easily define if a derived template will inherit an analysis. This derived template should have a check box on the analysis that says: 'Do not Inherent'. Without this option I have to disable the analyses mapped to the derived temp...

A good feature on the PI System Explorer would be to be able to expand/collapse all child elements by right clicking on the parent element. Also, being able to reevaluate the names for multiple child elements at once rather than having to click on...

Options to locate analyses seem absent or limited to solutions outside of PSE. It would be convenient to have a feature that lets me search for an analysis, and have it return its location in hierarchy (whether it writes to a tag or not).

Please add a "Join" function in Asset Analytics to combine string values in an array into one string. This would allow us to combine a varying number of outputs into one single variable that can be written to one attribute. Then, when that output ...

When the AFAttributeSearch(AFDatabase, String, String) AF SDK method is used, the AF Server will produce queries that may result into suboptimal SQL Server execution plans when using the default pageSize parameter for searching including attribute...
