    Make the Agent recrawl the AF/PI Point database from scratch

    Make the agent recrawl the AF/PIPoint database from scratch every now and again and update its cache if required. I think this is what PI Vision does, so it doesn't have these limitations.

    Allow PI Points to use the UOM database in PI AF

    The Engineering Unit attribute of PI Points does not offer the same robustness as UOMs, which are only available in PI AF. Also, the user must set both the PI Point Engineering Unit and the element attribute UOM manually and separately, which is r...

    Remove deleted PI Identities from everywhere that they are used

    Currently, if you delete a PI Identity that is still being used, the deletion will succeed and the PI Identity gets renamed to a number everywhere that it is used. This doesn't do much good, since the number does not reveal what the PI Identity us...

    Provide "Point Last Accessed" information to determine clients' use of PI Points

    It would be useful to be able to determine when (or even if) a PI Point was last accessed by a client application to retrieve its data.  This would enable redundant points to be identified and removed. Alternatively/additionally some form of...

    Support OPC UA ReverseConnect

    Support ReverseConnect, allowing for the connection to be establish from the more secure area where the OPC Server reside to the least secure area where the OPC Client / Adapter resides. This is implemented in many other client tools and SDK such...

    Add another Archive Mode option for the PI Interface for UFL

    There should be a way to configure the PI UFL interface to both discard duplicate events (same value at the same timestamp) and record multiple unique values for the same timestamp when these events come from multiple data files. For example, if...

    An option to store symmetric keys in a file - OPC UA

    It would be helpful to be able to read network trace between OPC UA Server and Adapter even if communication is encrypted. This possibility is described here https://www.unified-automation.com/news/news-details/analyzing-encrypted-opc-ua-traffic-w...

    Adapter for RDBMS to support multiple rows with same "Timestamp" colum as IndexColumn

    As of version 1.x, with the IndexColumn being specified in the dataselection, the Adapter will require that each row in the source Database to have its own unique timestamp. If there are multiple rows with the same timestamp, first value with the ...

    The DNP3 Adapter should support group 40

    The interface supports this group. The Adapter does not (see https://docs.aveva.com/bundle/adapter-for-dnp3/page/1231146.html). It is essential that the Adapter have this identical feature as the interface, to allow it to read the same data and be...

    Add option to clear buffer errors to the Buffering Manager

    Currently users have to use the command line tools to clear buffer point errors. It would be useful and enhance O&M if these errors could be cleared directly from the UI rather than just viewed.Bonus points for allowing users to clear all, mul...
