Ignore errors during server library import

As a PI AF administrator or power user, I would like to be allowed to continue loading content from a server library into a database, even if a UOM conflict is detected. Upon finding a UOM conflict, the library import feature does not allow me to...

Search functionality in PSE to find Analyses within hierarchy

Options to locate analyses seem absent or limited to solutions outside of PSE. It would be convenient to have a feature that lets me search for an analysis, and have it return its location in hierarchy (whether it writes to a tag or not).

Ability to specify default AF database during installation of PI AF Client

Currently, the PI AF Client installation allows the user to select a default PI Data Archive and default AF server but not a default AF database. It would be nice, especially for silent installations, to be able to specify the default AF database ...
