    Automatically Adjust Attribute Unit based on Attribute Value (or apply engineering notation)

    In PI AF, implement a dynamic mechanism that makes very large (or very small) values readable and quick to understand. Example: If I have an attribute "Bytes Allocated" which has a unit of bytes (B), and a value of 228839424 B, I want AF to displa...

    Add IsExcluded('attribute') function to AF Analysis.

    Add new isexcluded(attribute_reference) function to be able to easier distinguish between Tag/Attribute errors and excluded attributes. Currently it is quite tricky to filter if an attribute is in error due to data source error or an excluded tag....

    PI AF Template Versioning

    Allow for PI AF templates to be version controlled. Include the ability to revert to previous template version, or continue to use old versions for specific elements. This will reduce the risk of deployment and improve change/release management pr...

    OPC interface retries sending InstrumentTag/ItemID to OPC Server

    The idea is to have PI Interface for OPC DA/HDA to be able to send again Instrument Tag/Item ID after a configurable time when OPC Server is not able to resolve it (AddItem failed). This would be a workaround for an OPC server issue and would help...

    Be able to sort Elements and be displayed in ways other than alphabetically.

    We have seen several instances where we would like to have the order of element displayed in AF/Vision be sorted by process order, not alphabetically.  Suggest adding a "sort" field and an option to have element arranged by that rather than a...

    Add SOAP 1.2 support to the PI Interface for OPC XML-DA

    The current version of the PI Interface for OPC XML-DA seems to only support SOAP 1.1. All recent OPC XML-DA servers are developed following SOAP 1.2 standards, meaning the PI interface will not connect. Please enhance the interface to also suppor...
