Abstract

How can I access Maximo Field Help on a MacBook?

Body

One of the most useful features within the Maximo® GUI is the Field Help feature. 

You can use this feature to easily view the column and table that stores a field's data within the database.

For example, here is a screen capture of the Asset field in the Asset application:

On a Microsoft Windows PC, you display the Field Help feature by clicking any field and then keying Alt-F1.

On a MacBook, the equivalent is fn-option-F1.

I hope you enjoy your MacBook!
