All ideas

    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...

    Show AD display names rather than User ID

    PI Vision shows who owns a display and who commented on Event Frames, 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 ...

    Add style sheets/page templates

    Provide support for style sheets  - so authors can create multiple displays based on common templates - fonts, colors, images such as corporate masthead and common menu bar with their navigation links.

    Allow files to be processed similarly to, or better than, the PI Connector For UFL (in particular, allow data to be manipulated before using or archiving it)

    The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data Files is supposed to be the successor to the PI Connector For UFL, but they work differently enough that each can handle certain types of files better than the other. The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data File...

    Improve the search on community.aveva.com

    The title is very general because the search is just bad in general. The search on pisquare.osisoft.com worked fine, but the search on community.aveva.com is bad to the point that I don't consider using it to find any answers to any of my problems...

    Use UUIDs for PI Vision Display IDs

    PI Vision currently uses sequential IDs for displays.When migrating multiple PI Vision displays between servers, they must be migrated as a group using PI Vision Display Utility to preserve navigation links, due to possible display ID conflicts be...

    Display Utility options for duplicate displays

    I would like the PI Vision Display Utility to give me a warning and options if I try to move displays to a target database that has existing displays with the same names. This would avoid unintentionally creating duplicate displays with the same n...

    Provide RSSO AIM Servers Verification Command Across All PI Components

    Issue On PI Data Archive, administrators can use the piartool -rsso command to verify whether the server is aware of and properly configured for Redundant Single Sign-On (RSSO) with AVEVA Identity Manager (AIM). However, no equivalent verification...

    Have the option to discover new data streams, auto-select them, and save data retrieved for them, all with a single query to the data source, similar to PI Connectors

    Background + problem When PI Connector tries to save data for a tag that does not already exist (e.g. data for a new piece of equipment), it will create that tag automatically. This is very convenient, but it sometimes led to issues where data tha...

    Option to restrict Display and Folder sharing to only AF Identities that the user belongs to or all AF Identities

    Prior to PI Vision 2024, users who had Write permissions on Displays or Folders could only see the AF Identities that they belonged to when attempting to share them. Only PI Vision Admins could see the full list of AF Identities on the AF Server d...
