Visualize Questionable Flag

The visualisation of the questionable flag on trends. We map ‘suspect’ SCADA quality to the questionable flag, and it is very useful visualising this on trends as it indicates an issue, and the data on the trend can be held in question

      The only way our users can see the questionable flag now is with PI Datalink Compressed Data.

      We use the questionable bit to indicate when value (from EMS, PI DNP3 and other interfaces) PI tags have questionable quality, and to indicate when companion quality PI tags (most EMS value PI tags have these) are sourced from our alternate EMS site. Both are very valuable for troubleshooting and situational awareness, as well as for SQL queries against PI to find, count or exclude PI tags with values that are questionable.

      Quality status needs to be added in Vision, similar to datalink.


      Engineers need to be able to see the SCADA quality status on displays, this functionality is still unavailable.

      Really need to be able to see the questionability of data for PI Tags on trends and points. This is crucial for my industry (energy) and third party options or work arounds do not provide the functionality that is already present in ProcessBook. Since these attributes are already stored as part of the data, is there some way to just implement this option into the graphs and data points to emulate what already exists?

      No feedback on this request? A simple addition to the 'value' symbol would be helpful in the 'visibility' pane.

      The visualization and functionality of PI Vision leads a lot to be desired. There is a lot that ProcessBook can do that PI Vision can't and renders PI Vision useless.

      The same goes for the other 2 flags: Annotations and Substituted data. There are business cases to know via visualization if the data has been Substituted and/or if there is an Annotation (note) on the data. None of these 3 flags (Questionable, Annotated, Substituted) are are currently supported/visualized in Vision as of March 2022.

      What's the state to this request? It's already very old and has a lot of votes. Especially as PI Processbook is soon end of life, it's important to have this kind of use cases also supported by PI Vision. Also it's important to show other flags like Substituted and maybe Annotated.

      In PI Processbook I was able to see directly in a display if a value was questionable etc. We need this functionality also in PI Vision because otherwise you are not able to see if something is wrong with the data. In my opinion this is a development back if the new client tool doesn't support this simple functionality of the "old" PI Processbook.

      This is a critical feature for my client. It is highly utilized in their ProcessBook displays and extremely helpful in identifying bad data which otherwise could create unnecessary work and alarms. Users will not migrate from PB to Vision without this functionality.
