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...

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...

Datalink Search menu not intuitive

The Search menu in PI Datalink 2016 is confusing for users used to PI Tag searches elsewhere in the PI System. "In a row" and "In a column" are particularly confusing, as they suggest that searches are being performed within the row or column. Thi...

Option to disable automatic connections to AF Servers

I would like the ability to disable automatic connections to specific AF Servers. Currently client applications (DataLink) are implicitly connecting to all AF Servers in the AF "KST". This results in very slow startup times for Excel. For customer...
