LDAP Planning Guidance
When you plan to use application server security to authenticate TPAE/Maximo users against an external directory you also have the option to synchronize users and/or groups and group memberships. There are a few decisions you need to make before you begin. Who will be synchronized? You can use a standard LDAP filter to synchronize a subset of users into the system. These users can be in a pre-defined OU, role or group or can simply meet a standard query. Synchronizing a subset of users will improve the performance of the sync and also improve... [More]

Large files are generated in TMP directory when reports run
If large files are getting created in a tmp directory all the time, or some of the time, it is because users execute long running reports that cause these files to get created in the temp directory. Even Query-based reporting, or QBR, can cause this to happen. However, this is by design. Generally speaking, Birt will clean up after itself. It is only an issue once these large files start filling up the drive and the server runs out of space. Two known causes when these temp files do -not- get auto... [More]

Labor Reporting field is not searchable in List tab
Labor Reporting field is not searchable in List tab after upgrade to Maximo 7.6 In Maximo 7.5 the STARTDATE attribute in LABTRANS object was a persistante attribute in the database.

Now the STARTDATE attribute in LABTRANS object is not a persistante attribute in the database. Instead, there is a new attribute called STARTDATEENTERED. This is a new attribute which is same as STARTDATE but persistante.... [More]
