Processing Invalid XML Data Through The Integration Framework
Integration framework uses XML messages
to publish and consume data from and to Maximo. However there are a
range of characters that are considered invalid for an XML document.
The Maximo Mbo framework would allow such characters to be entered
and saved into Maximo. Problem starts however when one tries to
export that data through the Integration Framework. Compounding the problem - most XML
parsers would not validate for invalid XML characters in XML
node/element values while creating an XML document – but do so when
parsing an XML... [More]

Preventive Maintenance hierarchy with different frequencies is not generating correct forecast.
When a PM hierarchy generates Work Orders or a forecast and you are getting more or less work orders/forecast than expected. When a PM hierarchy generates Work Orders or a forecast, the highest frequency belonging to any PM with attribute "USEFREQUENCY" set to true will be used for all PMs in that hierarchy. For example: Consider a PM hierarchy with a top-level PM and a child PM, with respective frequencies of one year, and one month. Top-level PM - frequency 1 year Child PM - frequency 1 month If...

Preventive Maintenance
Having a proper preventive maintenance program in place is key when it comes to managing locations and assets in any organization.

It allows for us to also add job plans which contain the details of the work to be... [More]

Preventing users from deleting attachments in Maximo
I'm wondering if you ever had to create security privileges to prevent users from deleting attachments in Maximo records. Obviously, you will not want all the users from Maximo to delete the records, so it will be configured by Security Groups. To prevent the users from Add a File to a record you have to revoke access to Create/Save records for this application . However, to prevent them to delete it , you will have to create a security restriction and add to the "View Attachments" dialog. Since this is a common dialog used in... [More]

Preventing mass action on multiple records at once
Maximo offers the ability to set a limit for the records that are retrieved on a List tab from users search actions. But sometimes that is just not enough, because users still have the possibility to select multiple records to work with by using the Select Records check box and then selecting manually multiple records that they want to change. In case you would like to avoid performance issues, depending on the application you are working with, you may want to prevent users to work with mass actions or multiple records at once. Then you would... [More]
