Downloading inventory items

You can download inventory items from IBM® Maximo Inventory Optimization to a CSV or Excel file for external use. In a downloaded file, the column positions of your inventory items are retained.

Downloading priority

When you're downloading any data such as: items, issues, receipts, workflow, draft items, 'where used', distinct values, and exports; only one download can be done at a time. When the requested download is complete, you can then request another item to download. Each user can request only one download at a time.

Before you begin

To download specific item records, first select and tag specific item records that you would like to download, otherwise all records are selected, which might generate a large file and take a long time to complete. For more information, see Tagging items.

Procedure

  1. After selecting and tagging items to download, click the actions menu and then click Download.
  2. Select Csv or XLSX.

Result: The selected records are exported in your preferred format and downloaded to your local client.

Notes:

  • To download all records, do not select and tag items before you click Download.
  • If you select the checkbox in the column header, only those records that are on the current page will be tagged and downloaded.
