I would like to explain the usage of the Asset Up and Asset Down Status, and also the ASSETSTATUS, LOCSTATUS, and LOCASSETSTATUS domains .  Questions surrounding these components of the Maximo Assets application have been asked by some of my clients, so this likely means that more Maximo users must have made similar observations.  Hopefully I can clarify this functionality here.   A client recently inquired about two observations related to Domains: "I thought Maximo used to store Asset status changes in ASSETSTATUS table....
