I would like to be able to request to close a case regardless of its current status. Currently there is a button available if the case is in "Answered" status, and I can post or e-mail on the case to let them know to close it otherwise.

We have few section of users interested in learning module and others who would be only having view (read-only) access to customer portal.

The current list of user types in https://customers.osisoft.com/s/knowledgearticle?knowledgeArticleUrl=kA01I000000BKNxSAO allows any user having SSO account to open a case with Tech. Support.

Can we have another user type with only read-only access i.e. no privilege to create support cases? This will be beneficial in that all cases raised with OSIsoft tech. support goes through an internal IT support team keeping the process simple and efficient.

Submitting this feedback on request from our OSIsoft Customer Success Manager.

Currently, the instruction says, "Please confirm that you have uploaded the correct MSF. If this issue persists with a correct MSF, please open a support ticket by selecting the option below". The instruction can be inferred as the user has uploaded an incorrect MSF and a correct MSF will resolve the issue which may not be true.

Recommend to change to "Please check that you have generated the MSF on the correct machine and uploaded the correct one. Then open a support ticket and state the reason for a new license in the support ticket by selecting the option below"

Since EA software licenses are managed on the EA virtual site, they are losing the ability to track cases filed against products as well as a site or sites. They would like to be able to track these items against both, as well as filter against both.

When a customer gets an email related to a support case, there is a case link in the email, however that case link is not a hyperlink and the customer needs to copy and paste it into a browser. It would be nice if this was a hyperlink to direct the customer to the case page of the customer portal.

As a admin user, when experienced an error during license generation, I would like a technical support case created automatically on my behalf. And a representative from OSIsoft to contact me regarding the error. Currently, I need to contact technical support manually when experiencing a license generation error.

Enhance the Case Form description window when entering in a new tech support case.

Allow the description window to be full screen.
Support basic formatting of text.
Support pasting of images.

The current description window is both too small and is difficult to format the text to simply convey complicated issues.

As a user who creates TS cases, I would like the formatting of the description to persist from the "create a case" dialog to the case details itself. After submitting a case, the formatted description loses its line breaks, etc, making for a much more difficult reading experience.

In existing cases, users have the option to add a link. By default, the link text is "http://". This should be changed to "https://", since the world is migrating more and more towards HTTPS, and it will help familiarize users with the idea that the secure version of links should be used whenever possible.

Currently, when you choose "Collection" under the Product Family, the list that appears under Product And License is limited. For example, the PI Connector For UFL does not appear and you cannot search for it. This defeats the purpose of the new Customer Portal, since customers have no choice but to exclude the product name and version in these cases.

If having a full list of PI Connectors would make the page too slow, then at least allow specific PI Connectors to be searched and selected.

When you go to create a new case online, you must choose the version number of the program. Please make sure that the versions are always in order. For example, for PI DataLink, the version numbers are listed in descending order, which is fine, but then 2019 was sloppily appended at the bottom of the list, even though it should be at the top.

I don't think anyone knows all the serial numbers for their PI archive servers. On the products page I have added nicknames to the archive server entries so I know which server is which serial number.

When I create a case and have to choose a server - bring over that nick name as well instead of just serial numbers.

JNJ would like to be able to open attachments / download attachments to cases, but can only open “simple types” like word / PDF / excel, etc. If a zip is uploaded it is more or less useless to a portal user, cannot view, cannot download.

Threading features in tech support cases can be confusing, especially for large, long, complex interactions. The same message appears in multiple places in the thread making it hard to follow.

JNJ would like to be able to create custom filters for their tech support selection tickets, like for this list of sites, non NOC open cases, etc.
