We've had issue with Notifications spamming users with events should a PI collective member stop getting data. At times, we need to disable the notification service until we can resolve the issue. After the issue is resolved, we need to start th...

We have seen several instances where we would like to have the order of element displayed in AF/Vision be sorted by process order, not alphabetically.  Suggest adding a "sort" field and an option to have element arranged by that rather than a...

Use Case: calculating which Shift is working within a rotating-shift cycle, which must the follow Daylight Savings Time offset. This function is available in the Performance Equation library, but not in AF. The function itself is simple once one ...

I would like to be able to order by name (alphanumerically) the Analysis in the Management tab in PI System Explorer after retrieving a list of analyses through a search/filtering. This could be done by clicking on the Name column.

As for now, automatic recalculation is not triggered by changes on snapshot (KB01790), which means auto-recalculation does not work with snapshots values. The idea of it doing otherwise is to help users that mistakenly added a wrong new event to ...

When we built complex analysis and evaluate in PI System explorer we get general error messages without any information where the error occurs. This makes troubleshooting painful. Adding row/variable information would already help a lot!

If then else clauses are often used for input filtering for our analysis in AF. We often face the issue that analysis cause errors although the part which should not be executed according to the condition is causing errors.Example: "if BadVal('att...

It would be nice to have the option to select either starttime or endtime of the eventframe as the timestamp for the value that will be written a PI tag using the Outputs at close feature in Event Frames. Currently, it will only write the value wi...

From a varying number of child elements (all sharing the same template), I want to find the most recent timestamp of a same template-based attribute, and output the value with timestamp to an attribute in the parent element. In addition, constantl...
