    Add new PIPointAttribute for "StaleTimeout"

    While no customers have asked for this directly, I have seen many customers ask how to check a tag for being stale. The solution to date assumes all tags have the same staleness timeout, which really is not the case most of the time. This new "St...

    Provide a scaling option to set a value for either min or max while having the other as automatic based on plotted value range.

    This was useful and available in ProcessBook but not supported in PIVision. Trends can be quite messy to read and potentially misleading without this feature especially with many tags plotted and some having very small scales etc. There is a worka...

    Add point Type INT64, UINT64, to PI Archive

    Some interfaces such as PI Modbus allow the polling of a 64-bit signed integer value or a 64-bit unsigned integer value. Yet the database does not allow you to store these values in their native formats. You must store them as a 64-bit floating po...

    Provide more granular configuration for default ACLs

    As a PI Administrator of a PI System with complex security requirements, I need to set up different default permissions for various users so they can create tags that automatically have the proper security instead of having to rely on a process/pr...

    Support User Information in Connection History Tool

    (pidiag -connectionhistory) Support the collection and retrieval of PI / Windows user information by the connection history database.   Currently, the connection history database only stores IP addresses which can be misleading when m...

    Force Shift warning is misleading

    When force shifting an archive, the following message is displayed: "Warning: This shift will clear data from the target archive. Are you sure you want to force an archive shift on to a new archive?" When Auto Archive Creation is enabled (having...

    Make it easier to get a list of buffered or unbuffered points on the PI Data Archive

    For PI System Administrators, it would be nice to be able to easily get a list of all buffered or unbuffered points on the PI Data Archive. Currently, a list of buffered points is possible to retrieve using 'piartool -bfs -ptlist', but a comprehe...

    Integrate with Excel Tables (Using PI Datalink) into PI Vision

    Previously processbook had the ability to display excel files/tables within a display. This was particularly handy due to the customisation of the formulas and increased control of the calculations and how each column & row was generated. I th...

    Incremental backups are not possible because of frequent backfilling

    Occasional back filling of data would cause 5 TB of archives to be backed up with incremental backups. This is frustrating because only a few KB of data is changed in each archive. Can OSIsoft provide a way to backup only the data that has changed...

    Provide automation for(especially migrated) displays

    As large numbers of displays are being migrated into PI Vision (from PI ProcessBook), it would be very useful to allow scripting of the process for things like determining the imported file structure, keywords and display ownership.
