Supplemental attributes for applications in IBM Maximo EAM SaaS

When you use Application Designer in IBM Maximo EAM SaaS, supplemental, or extra, attributes are provided for several objects and for all views that are based on those objects. In a nonproduction environment, you can use these attributes to configure existing applications.

The following objects have supplemental attributes:
  • ASSET
  • COMPANIES
  • ITEM
  • JOBPLAN
  • LABOR
  • LOCATIONS
  • PM
  • PO
  • PR
  • TICKET
  • WORKORDER
The following types of supplemental attributes are provided:
  • 10 ALN attributes
  • 5 INTEGER attributes
  • 5 YORN attributes
  • 5 DECIMAL attributes
  • 5 DATETIME attributes

Supplemental attributes are easy to identify. Their names start with the letters EX, and their descriptions begin with the word Supplemental.

Supplemental attributes names are the same in all tables. For example, each object that contains supplemental attributes contains an ALN attribute that is named EXALN1 and that has the description Supplemental attribute 1.
