Understanding new features in Maximo 7.6 - My Recent Applications
Body
There is a new feature where you can see a list of the most recent applications that you have used during your
current log in session called "My Recent Applications". This option can be seen from both the Go To menu and the
Side Navigation menu and allows you to easily move between the applications that you most commonly use.
This helps to avoid the necessity of scrolling through the list of applications to find the one you just
used and by extension increases productivity. The number of applications shown is set by default to eight but this
value can be increased or decreased by modifying the system property webclient.maxRecentApp. The values are
stored at the browser level and for a given browser instance and the applications will show with the most recent applications on top.

applications menu.
