    Populate child attribute in Asset filter Search - Attribute to display

    Child attributes are populated in the Attribute value filters section of the Asset filter search but have to be entered manually in the Attributes to display section. Users not familiar with the AF syntax or AF hierarchy have trouble entering/find...

    Please add a DAYOFWEEK function to the UFL interface

    Can you please add a DAYOFWEEK function to the available functions in the UFL interface. This will greatly assist with the handling of daylight savings transitions (e.g. first sunday in April) as there is currently no easy way of determining the ...

    UFL Designer should include a test mode to verify INI behavior with a data file.

    One can do this, to some extent, piecemeal with functionality the UFL Designer already has. However, it's a very manual process and does not actually have a way to show what data would be sent to PI for a particular file. An explicit test mode or ...

    PI UFL ._OK file rename should be after parsing to avoid data loss during shutdowns

    My understanding of UFL (confirmed by tech support) is that it will rename files to ._OK extension before loading lines into memory. This means that if the service is stopped (such as during an update) and it has not completely read into memory an...

    Add TCP option to PI UFL Interface

    Currently the only two options are file reading or a serial interface. But what if you have ASCII data streaming from a TCP/telnet source? The configuration would be almost the same as serial - for the connection, rather than a serial port, just n...

    Bring back PIAttributeMaskToTag

    Please, bring back the PIAttributeMaskToTag function. It disappeared after PI Datalink 2019SP1 Patch 1. Emulating it with a VBA function calling on an AF SDK COM wrapper is a lot of work and, most importantly, much slower that a native DataLink im...

    Allow for a timeshift of certain tags, depending on process time delay

    To be able to delay some signals by x amount of hours would allow save tremendous amount of data handling into Excel. Some apps like Visplore offer that right at the display. I'm sure that the PI team can come up with a solution for that.

    Allow converting compatible formulas to dynamic arrays on an entire spreadsheet

    Right now, it is tedious to convert an existing spreadsheet to use dynamic arrays since each formula needs to be converted one-by-one. It would be helpful to have a way to convert formulas in bulk.

    For compressed data, have the option to return the tagname (for example, similar to how the count is returned at the top).

    If multiple tags are selected for 1 compressed data function, it is difficult to determine which data is associated with the tags. On behalf of Elizabeth Metzler elizabeth.metzler@enbridge.com
