Introduction: There is a drop down menu "All Records" on the side navigation toolbar in Maximo and sometimes users ending up clicking on this option which could impact performance seriously if there are millions of records to be returned. 'All Records' query option is hardcoded in the menu.java to always be displayed. You are unable to disable it without a framework code change . Making a code change to achieve this would be an unsupported customization of platform... [More]

"What condition my condition is in"...User Interface properties that can be controlled conditionally
Conditional UI is a powerful tool that can change the behavior of your user interfaces based on the state of the current record or the role of an individual user. See the Application Configuration Best Practices page for more details on what Conditional UI can do for your users. To implement some conditional user interface use cases, Maximo 7.x allows you to conditionally change the property values of your widgets. This is controlled in the Application Designer application by launching the “Configure Conditional... [More]

Improve User Efficiency by Adding Critical Information to the User Interface (Part 2)
One of Jakob Nielsen’s top ten rules for usability is: Minimize the user's memory load by making objects, actions, and options visible. The user should not have to remember information from one part of the dialogue to another. Sometimes adding an additional field or section into an application can greatly improve the efficiency of your end users. You can add fields or sections to an existing user interface through configuration by using the Application Designer. Here’s a tutorial on adding a simple field into the user interface that was posted... [More]

How to develop a BIRT report to correctly print both in PDF and HTML
Depending on how BIRT reports were developed, they may look fine on screen (HTML), but can be displayed in a different way when they are exported to or printed using PDF. A simple approach can be used so that BIRT reports will look the same on screen and when they print in PDF. This approach follows: 1) After a new report is created by clicking on File -> New -> Report, select all the report containers (table, grids, etc) and on their layout tab, select the Property Editor tab, Properties sub tab and the General option as per figure 1...

BiLog: Explore....Report Upgrade to 371!
Last week I showed you my cubicle . This week, I used one of my favorite tools – my Magic 8 Ball – to see if I should show you more, and received ‘Reply Hazy’ in return. Okay…I’ll follow its guidance and hold for now. But what I do want to share today is more information on Report Upgrading. When Maximo 7.5.0.3 was initially released, we noted that it included an upgrade to BIRT 3.7.1 . If you were using a previous version of Maximo (and hence a lower version of BIRT) we recommended report upgrade best practices which included backup... [More]
