    Allow bi-temporal data archiving

    PI DA Server should allow for more flexibility in terms of the format of archived data. A big advantage would be if PI could archive two timestamps per event. One timestamp will come from whatever the data source is (PI Interfaces, fiels devices, ...

    Display string arrays in the PI System Explorer value field

    When looking at element attributes or event frame attributes in PI System Explorer I would like to see [string1, string2, string 3] for the value field of an array attribute, instead of "String Array" as we see today. When you quickly check out t...

    Allow Analysis to use "BadVal"

    We have many cases where data is showing up as "questionable" and thus cannot be used in an analysis even tho the value is still mostly good and can still be accurately used in a calculation. Being able to choose to use these "BadValues" would be ...

    Reduce archive file size by eliminating unused record numbers

    Improve Scalability of PI Analytics

    We have a template called AnalogPVAsset with an analysis called BadValues (see attachment level 1). Derived from that template we have a template AnalogPVSTSEuLoHiAsset where we have overridden the BadValues analysis (see attachment level 2). The...

    Sort values numerically/by size when using Time Series Data in PI System Explorer for a numeric attribute value type

    Currently when viewing Time Series Data for a numeric attribute value type (e.g Double, Single) in PI System Explorer, sorting the value column will sort the results alphabetically (e.g. 1, 10, 2, 20, 3...) and not by size (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 10, 20). ...
