Automatic PI Point Creation

It would be convenient if PI Points were automatically created when deploying an element based on an element template for the attribute templates that have Tag Creation set. The current approach is to right click > Create or Update Data Reference.

    The current manual step to Create or Update Data Reference allows the user a final check before PI Points are created. Since changes to a template can affect many element instances therefore we feel this final manual step can avoid accidents that may cause too many PI Points to be created inadvertently and possibly affecting the PI Data Archive license count. As such, we have no plans to implement this idea.
