    Improve Visibility for Automatic Task Pane

    As user of PI DataLink, I would like the Automatic Task Pane to highlight the referenced cells in different colours that the functions (e.g. Sampled Data) are using. It helps to improve visibility and reduce confusion.

    PI Datalink officially supports Excel 2024

    My customer is using PI Datalink with Excel2024 instead of Excel365 because policy prevents the addition or update of each person's Excel functionality. I would like to add Excel2024 to the PI DataLink Compatibility Matrix for these customers.

    Add Event IDs to event logging

    Currently, events logged for the OPC UA Connector all have an Event ID of 0. I've had to dig around in Event Viewer quite a bit for troubleshooting, and it's frustrating not to be able to filter events by ID. I mention the UA Connector because tha...

    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.

    Write an error message to logs when no destination PI Data Archive is specified

    Ran into this problem when configuring a new UFL connector. After install, I went straight to configuring my .ini--forgetting to add the PI Data Archive (in fact, the connector was actually installed on the DA node). I had the text files coming ...

    Make "Cancel" a button, not a link

    In the configuration page of any data source, there is a "Save" button and a "Cancel" link. This is unnecessarily inconsistent. Please make "Cancel" a button.

    Use units in the attribute templates of the element templates that PI Connectors create

    Currently, all of the attribute templates of the element templates that PI Connectors create have their unit stated in their description but do not have a Default UOM assigned to them. Please assign Default UOMs to the attribute templates to save ...

    Better error handling in DCM UI

    For some cases where disallowed or poor configuration causes unexpected behavior, the UI should give a visual indicator and explanation.  Two examples: 1. No write access for Relay to AF DB when using the PSC.  Result: replication of AF ...
