Analytics & Calculations

    Be able to use variable as index in \Elements[@index=Variable]

    I would like be able to use a variable as index instead of an integer number in \Elements[@index=variable] so I can always get attribute values of my child elements eventough the relation to my child element isn't always the same.

    Preserve analysis configuration when switching types

    It would be nice if the configuration of an analysis was saved in memory when switching between types (expression, rollup, event frames or SQC). This way if a user accidently changes type, their work would not be lost.

    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...

    Performance Tab "Jump to" Option

    When trying to troubleshoot analyses and templates that may be causing poor performance on the "Management\Performance" tab, it can be tedious to locate the selected element to start determining why it's building in error count or taking a long ti...

    Our corporation has highly available PI in a number of sites. Our PI infrastructure is highly available except for Analytics and Notifications. The requirement for a shared volume for the failover cluster is not supported. We can support the failo...

    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 ...

    TagTot should make use of input UOM when no output UOM is defined

    TagTot will automatically account for UOM that have the time dimension as something other than per day only when the input has an assigned UOM and the function has an output UOM defined. It would be friendlier if the output UOM was defaulted based...
