Setting up an exception destination on the continuous queue
In the past the question has come up often regarding the best way to configure the error queue exception destination for the inbound continuous queue (CQINBD) and the inbound continuous error queue (CQINBDERR) used by the Maximo Integration Framework. There are many ways these exception destinations can be configured, and it really depends on how the Ingration Framework system is being used and what the preferred behavior would be.

Setting a default font size for Rich Text controls
Your main purpose here is to set a default font size for the Rich Text Format controls or RTF. Well.. there are some considerations that need to be taken into account as below.

Regarding having a way to set a default font size, we see that users have been complaining that the default... [More]

Server Round Trips Taking Too Long?
In Maximo
7.5 the user interface properties were moved from the
webclient.property file into the database. Now these properties can be accessed
and configured from the UI. Change can
occur dynamically - without shutting down the server or rebuilding and reploying
ear files, making Maximo more responsive so users can work faster. For
instance, if you have applications where your users experience network latency
and the server round-trips for validation take too long consider Client-Side
validation. Use the
