    When Eventframe Batches are created by a Batch Interface, the used Unit in the plant is created as Element in AF and linked to the Unitprocedure EventFrame. Unfortunately it is not linked to the parent Procedure Event, leaving the "referenced Elem...

    Option for PI Point Number Inserts instead of Tag Names - tag renames stop spreadsheets from working.

    ProcessBook stores tags by their pointid. If you change the name of a tag, It will still show up in ProcessBook. We would like to have the option to store tags in Xcel by the tag number instead of the name. As an example, we are getting ready to ...

    Allow renaming of diagnostic tags for batch interfaces

    Batch interfaces should follow a similar approach to UniInt based interfaces to retrieve the diagnostic tags. That is to say they should pull the diagnostic tags based on the PointSource, Location1, and ExDesc, not a hardcoded name based purely on...

    Support named ranges to avoid issue KB01369

    Excel places named ranges in formulas when a cell has a named range (instead of cell references). Excel formulas become more readable this way. Datalink should support defined named ranges too. Editing a Datalink array formula directly in Excel a...

    Allow the UFL interface to delete PI tag data or provide some other supported automated method of deleting PI data from a collective.

    There is no way to easily delete data in a time range if you want the changes to occur on both the primary and secondary data archive. It seems the UFL interface would be good to use to do this. You could provide it a tag name and time range and t...
