Prioritize Recalculation of Analyses acting as Inputs into other Analyses (Daisy Chains)

During bulk recalculation or backfill, enhance the PI Asset Analytics engine to prioritize the calculation of analyses that act as inputs into higher level "daisy" chain analyses. This would address performance issues at large scale, as described ...

Additional capabilities for rollup analyses

I find myself making analytics on child elements which by themselves have limited value, but are needed to get rollup analyses to work. This adds complexity to the design of AF. Two ideas would improve this: 1) Count # of attributes that meet a c...

AF Function Call to test for existence of a PI tag

Some Analytics fail due to a tag not existing. It is possible to test for a Bad value via the BadVal() function, however, this does not work if the tag does not exist. Consequently the equation will not run. This caused me many hours of debugging ...

Add support to create custom AFAnalysisRule plugins

I would like to create a custom AFAnalysisRule that allows us to leverage the resources on the PI Analysis Service to perform calculations that the Analysis Service currently cannot perform. These calculations include matrix operations, array oper...

Provide a tool (in PSE?) to assist management of analytics scheduling offsets

We recommend customers use offsets to distribute scheduled calculations across time but there is not a good way manage this.Propose some utility to list a group of all scheduled analyses by same period, users supply X number of offsets and then th...

Provide visual indication of attributes that are used as calculation inputs or outputs

it would be useful if there were a way to easily identify which attributes represent inputs to an analytic versus those which represent outputs.

Add Continue() Function To Asset Analytics

Similar to the Exit() function, a Continue() function would be very helpful in reducing the calculation load on my analysis service, in this case by not fully executing variables if a condition is true. For example, if I'm evaluating the state of ...

New analysis to perform insert into AFTable

Hello, We have a use case that would benefit from being able to insert into an AFTable from an analysis. This would work in the same way that event frames do, where a trigger condition is meet that causes the row to be inserted. The variables from...

New PI AF Function allow user to assemble the new Array (value or timestamp or both) in Analysis variable.

PI Array Data Reference: I think one enhancement request could be: a new PI Function (e.g. ArrayValue, ArrayEvent, ArrayRecord) allow user to assemble the new Array (value or timestamp or both) in Analysis variable instead of attributes. Thanks! h...

PI Ecuation in AF Analyses accept starttime and endtime from client

584 / 5.000 Processbook and Datalink allow dynamic starttime and endtime in PI Equations.For example, the TimeEq function allows you to obtain the starttime and endtime of the client.Our PI Vision users would find it very useful to have that featu...
