Asset Framework (AF)

Show AD display names rather than User ID

PI AF shows who created and last edited an element, but does so by showing the user's ID in format "Domain\UserID" which is not always readable. It would be better to display the AD user's display name in these places to make it clear who performe...

Provide a mechanism in AF for moving a UOM from one class to another.

With multi-user AF Servers, it is not unusual for a UOM to end up in the wrong class.  Currently, fixing this issue is not trivial.  If you try to delete the UOM from its current class so it can be recreated in the correct class, you get...

"Create Only" mode for AF Template Tag Creation

It's possible to inadvertently change the tag attributes for production tags if they are used with an attribute that has tag creation set. It would be safer if there was a lock that allowed new tags to be created, but blocked tag attribute changes...

Option to reconcile templates during xml import

Suppose the following scenario: a user has 2 AF databases (a development and a production one), both containing same version of a template. The user deletes a few attributes and analyses from one element template (development), exports the xml and...

Add array sorting function to AF Analytics.

This would also enable calculation of percentiles. Percentile calculation would also be possible if the user could use nested substitution parameters in array functions. For example: RecVals := RecordedValues('Attribute1', start, end) CountLowe...

Support UOMs across AF databases within an organization

UOM conversions done on one AF Instance cannot be referenced by another AF Instance, even for the base/built-in UOMs. A customer uses an AF pattern where they have a golden (reference) AF structure that is referenced by other AF structures to help...

Add alternatives to reset Active Directory Properties in AF

Please add more ways to reset, or modify, the Active Directory Properties in AF, to be able to search for contacts, as currently the only ways are through PSE and by using AF SDK code. If those properties are misconfigured or the account used is m...
