Defects in Maximo Mobile

You can create defects in Maximo Mobile by using the Defects function or the Inspections function.

In the Defects function and in the Inspections function, you can attach photos when creating a new defect, set one photo as the default image, and then send the attached photos for analysis in Maximo Visual Inspection. You can then review the results of the analysis, or record any observed changes. To create a more accurate defect, you can also change the category of a detected anomaly, change its outline, or add a new anomaly.

You can also view the anomalies confidence scores to see how likely it is that the detected anomalies are defects. You can also select one or more anomalies and use the new overflow menu with the new options such as change the category, show, hide and delete the anomalies in IBM® Maximo Mobile.

In the Inspections function, you can create a defect from an existing inspection, or create a new inspection. The defect is created in the Defects application.

You can work with the desktop version of the Defects function and the Inspections function by going to the Work Orders module, in the Role Based Applications section.
