As an RTReports administrator I would like to have the ability to incorporate comments and annotations that users attach to Event Frames .  For example, I would like generate a notification report for a unit over a period of time - PI notifications now stores acknowledgments, comments, approvals and I think severity in the AF database.  when generating my notification report I would like to incorporate this data into my report.

Provide additional Time Format setting for Duration, other than “xx days xx hours xx minutes xx seconds”

As an report designer, I would like to be able to choose the position of the legend on Trends.

Provide a native 64-bit version of the RtReports Server.

It would be useful to have the possibility to include EFs in a Time Based Template.

For example:

• if downtime events are recorded as Event Frames, I would like to report on all the downtime EFs occurred in the last month (for example), including acknowledges and annotations.


• Using PI Connector for Siemens Simatic PCS7, conditions end-up in PI Event Frames accompanied with a related set of static and dynamic attributes. Having the possibility of including Conditions EFs in a time based report could be useful.

Provide the ability to show a Time Zone Information with date time on a Report.

Customer would like to be able to Reject a generated report.

The current RtReports does not have any "next line" control character/object that customer is using Text object: </br> which is not recommended by OSIsoft developer

Automatic Report Generation (ARG) security is currently based on User Group privileges and Report Execute privileges, meaning that any user that has permissions to generate a report can also configure ARG for that report.

The request is to implement a security feature so that Admin users can restrict user access to the ARG configuration page without also restricting that same user's access to generate, edit, and view the report.

Show if Time Based Reports are already Approved or Not Yet Approved in the Generator without having to generate each report to check.

This will allow approvers and users printing the reports to easily check which reports are already approved.

When creating a report which will bring in PI Point data from all module aliases matching a given wildcard expression, I would like there to be a way to set the order of items returned in the Report and the data journal without needing to specify actions individually.

The RtReport batch end time and duration should show N/A or * while the batch is still in progress. Users might be generating the report and commenting on it before the batch ends. The current format could cause confusion for the user by showing the time that the report has been generated as the batch end time for a batch that has not been completed yet.

As mentioned in case 00677743, we wish to be able to format the X axis also.

For example 15 minutes step. Or 4 grid-lines per trend.

Also the time value is formatted as integer, e.g. 11.75 hour(s).
would be nicer if 11 hours 45 minutes.

Cosmetic things.

Thank you

Some customers are using the same RtReports Server to connect to both PI Data Archives (for batches) and Asset Framework Servers (for Event Frames) since they are using both at the same time. They'd like to be able to store both DA and AF/Database in the Generator, so there's no need to click around selecting them.

A table row with wrapped text can be split across multiple pages. Provide the ability to shift the entire table row to the next page if it would be split across pages.

Provide the ability to filter report templates in the RtReports generator by primary referenced element for event frame reports.

While searching for reports in the RtReports Generator, using the 'Report Condition' filters requires specifying a report name. This is documented in the user guide under the section: Specify Batch Report Conditions

It would be helpful to use the status filter without specifying a report name in order to search all reports that have the specified status.
