    EMDVB - Add Option to End Procedure EF with batchview.endtime equivalent instead of when it's unloaded from the BOI

    Currently the EMDVB interface will not end the parent Procedure level event frame until the batch has been unloaded from the Delta Batch Operator Interface. It is very common for users to leave batches loaded for quite a while which causes batches...

    EMDVB Data Type Enhancement

    Please include option in the DeltaV EMDVB interface that can handle the timestamp format used with .evt files. Currently, if in the interface a trigger is used with a property, the timestamp format in the .evt file is retained, which cannot be sto...

    Restrict Batch interface from creating Event Frames using illegal characters

    The PI Interface for Rockwell FactoryTalk Batch in processing evt files used a hexadecimal character of 1f in the generation of an event frame. This results in an error when attempting to export the event frame in an xml output.

    File name extensions "_OK" and "BAD" / Deletion of correctly read lines

    We operate a UFL interface that evaluates CSV files with additional analysis data and reads data for existing PI tags, storing the values (including timestamps) in the PI server archives. Our UFL interface is not permitted to create PI tags. I hav...

    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...

    Unit testing for Microsoft Edge browser for PI Connectors administration

    The tested browser from AVEVA is Google Chrome. However, some organizations typically use an official browser or a proffered browser like Microsoft Edge. For such scenarios it will be a good idea if Aveva does the end to end unit testing for the o...

    Support filtering by element template or attribute

    Currently we can "filter" what is replicated by including a specific branch. But if using a composite model, say a site with all it's composite assets, and only want to replicate the "foo" assets from all sites, this option does not work. It is p...

    Prioritize current data over historical backfill

    Especially when requesting a large amount of historical data from PI System Connector, I would like the Connector to prioritize the current data from the data source while processing the historical data at a lower priority in the background.

    Add support for Future tags

    Please add support for future data / tag type to PI System Connector. Since it is currently unsupported we have to continue to rely on PI to PI interfaces or other to handle these tags.

    Alert user when the interface discards values

    Example:  When using a distribution tag, the number of tags returned and number of values sent to PI can be mismatched, due to missing aliases or data that does not need to be collected. It would be helpful to identify what values are droppe...
