    Allow Analysis timestamp override feature to output milliseconds

    When using an analysis variable as the output timestamp, it appears that the actual output timestamp is floored to the nearest second, shaving off any millisecond count. This is not a huge priority on our end, but I wanted to ask in case it was a ...

    Eliminate the 2-cell-wide blank border around PI Builder data

    When I import data using PI Builder, I usually want to filter the data and create calculated columns, but these prove to be more painful than necessary. If I put filters on the columns containing PI Builder data and then click on the filter dropd...

    Minimize the recalculation of volatile cells

    Currently, PI Builder data is imported row by row. Each imported row causes all volatile cells in all open workbooks and any cells downstream of them in the dependency tree to recalculate. PI Builder will not import a new row until this calculatio...

    If a user has PI points that are calculated with average, maximum, and standard deviation time range method, it would be great if those points can be referenced as attributes in an event frame template. Right now the time context needed to calcula...

    Refrain from creating PI Points when AF Analytics is doing an expensive calcultion

    If it can be known that the Analytics service is busy with an expensive calculation, the Data Archive should pause on creating PI Points, as this is also an expensive operation and may interfere with the calculation completion.

    Make a point class similar to "base", but without zero, span, or typical value

    Most of the time, zero, span, and typical value are unused, cause confusion, and/or lead to easy but costly mistakes. Typical value is probably the most useless PI Point attribute. It doesn't affect the PI system. It is just there for the user's ...

    Option to turn off interpolation for a PI Point

    Currently, PI will always interpolate to determine a value for a PI Point between archived events. The Step attribute determines the interpolation method. "On" means "step interpolation" and "off" means "linear interpolation". This works well for ...

    Add security concept for Analytics Expressions at the analysis level

    As an organization I want to keep confidential calculations secured even inside the same organization. Currently we can control Analytics  r/w access on the Database level. Often this is not enough granularity and the organization will want t...
