Processing of job-plan-related components
When you import the same digital data more than once, job-plan-related components for that data, such as job tasks and work assets, are updated in Maximo® Manage, and some components might be inserted or deleted.
The following processing occurs when digital data that already exists in Maximo Manage is imported again:
- If a component that is associated with the job plan in Maximo Manage matches a component in the incoming digital record for that job plan, the Manage component is replaced by the incoming component.
- If a new component is associated with the job plan in the incoming digital record, the new component is created for the job plan in Maximo Manage.
- If a component that is associated with the job plan in Maximo Manage is no longer associated with the job
plan in the incoming digital record, one of the following actions is taken based on the update mode
that is configured:
- If you are using replace for the update mode, the Manage component is deleted.
- If you are using merge for the update mode, the Manage component is not deleted.
