Customizing Maximo Anywhere mobile apps

You can modify the user interface of Maximo Anywhere mobile apps. For example, you can change field labels, add fields, or add views.

Creating and modifying fields in mobile apps
To develop a Maximo Anywhere mobile app, you can add fields to the mobile apps, rename fields and views, and also add values list to fields.
Organizing the layout of mobile screens
You can arrange the layout of the mobile screens for the Maximo Anywhere apps to match the process and work flow of your organization. You can change the order of fields on a screen and modify layout template files to accommodate new fields.
Customizing JavaScript files for mobile apps
Maximo Anywhere applies business rules and behavior to the mobile apps. As a developer, you can customize JavaScript files that are associated with the app.xml files to implement these rules. This section provides some examples of customized JavaScript files for conditional fields.
Restricting access to status changes
When mobile workers manage work orders, they must have the authority to change the status of work orders. You can set up privileges for users by group. The user and group association are retrieved from Maximo® Asset Management during authentication.
Extending apps for QR codes
When configuring Quick Response (QR) codes with multiple values to use with a mobile app, you can scan items that have QR codes. For example, when you use the Cycle Counts app, you can count inventory items by scanning the QR code of the item.
Importing OSLC resources to Maximo Anywhere
After you create OSLC resources in Maximo Asset Management, you need to import the updated metadata to Maximo Anywhere.
