Maximo Monitor to Maximo Manage organization and site integration

The External Systems application provides an enterprise service for integrating organization and site data from Maximo® Monitor to Maximo Manage.

The following artifacts are used to integrate organizations and sites:
  • Enterprise Service: MASDDORG
  • Object Structure: MXAPIORGANIZATION

You can integrate all organizations. Synchronizing an organization also integrates all sites for the organization.

To create an organization in Maximo Manage, you must supply an ITEMSETID, COMPANYID, and BASECURRENCY, which Maximo Monitor does not have. You have two options for providing organizations and sites for Maximo Manage:
  • You can manually create an organization in Maximo Manage and then integrate only sites.
  • You can add default values for item set, company ID, and base currency by using the following system properties:
    Table 1. System properties for organization and site synchronization
    Property Description
    mxe.int.masdddfltitemset Default item set ID.
    mxe.int.masdddfltcompset Default company set ID.
    mxe.int.masdddfltbasecurrency Default currency code.
    After you add the default values, you can integrate organization data from Maximo Monitor into Maximo Manage.
Before you can activate an organization, you must specify a clearing account. If you want to disable GL validation, you can set the mxe.int.disablevalidation property to true by specifying 1. If you disable the validation, an organization is created as active with the clearing account set to ?. The following MAXVARS are set to bypass GL validation:
  • DISABLEGLSWITCH
  • GLVALIDATEFP
  • GLCHECKCOA

Mismatches in field lengths between Maximo Monitor and Maximo Manage can prevent accurate synchronization.

Integration fails when a field length in Maximo Monitor is greater than the maximum field length in Maximo Manage.

When you integrate data from Maximo Monitor to Maximo Manage, adjustments are sometimes required for field lengths. Except for the descriptions, attributes in Maximo Monitor have a length of 30. Consequently, you must reconfigure attributes in Maximo Manage to a length of 30.

The following tables describe the default field lengths and data types that Maximo Manage uses for the organization and site attributes:
Table 2. Data types and lengths for organization attributes
Attribute Data type Length
ORGID UPPER 8

Table 3. Data types and lengths for site attributes

The following table describes how organization and site statuses are mapped from Maximo Monitor to Maximo Manage:
