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). ...

Currently, there is not a way to update a subset of Event Frames' security in bulk, without changing the Event Frame's "Modified Date." For example, to add a new AF Identity with "read" permissions to a subset of Event Frames. Some customers use d...

Currently, when a group is added as a subscriber to a notification rule template, all the group members are added with the parameter "Event Start". They can be individually customized. When all group members have been set to "Event End" and a new ...

The first EFs created by the PI Analysis Service after a restart can have the Extended Property StatusInAnalysisService stuck in Reconciling even after the event frame has been closed. There is a workaround to fix the issue when it occurs (see Eve...
