User interface extensibility resources

Resources are available to learn more about extending the extension points for user interfaces in Maximo® Manage.

User interface extensions can be used to create a user interface for a new application, or modify an existing one. User interface extensions often associated with business object extensions, business rules extensions, API extensions, and in certain cases, Integration extensions. Modifying a user interface can take many forms:
  • Change layouts by using the Application Designer.
  • Add new sections to an application or highlight an attribute of a custom business object by using the Application Designer.
  • Implement conditional user interface elements by using the Application Designer, configuring sigoptions in the Security application. Add further logic with the Condition Expression Builder and the Scripting application.
  • Add new actions to the user interface by using the Application Designer, configuring sigoptions in the Security application, and the Scripting application.
  • Set access rights to an application or specific areas of an application by using the Security application.

In addition to the Maximo Manage user interface, role-based user interfaces can also be extended by using the appropriate application designer.
