RE: Move/Modify Asset does not move Inspection Forms.

Found In Egroup: Maximo Open Forum \ view thread
Hi AJ, The asset lives at the Site level, the associated form to the asset (INSPFORMUSEWITH) lives at the Site level, and the form lives at Org. When you move the asset to another Site, the information in the INSPFORMUSEWITH does not also get updated. This makes sense as the associated inspection may ...

RE: Asset Templates: Change Meter Sequence

This is one of those classic faults that IBM have built-in. Even if you change the template when it pushes out, it's only pushing out the new entry and thus causing your issue. You will need to remove all traces of the meters from the assets, or use the new higher number.

I have been experiencing the error when a user simply selects either the Work View or Assignment view in GA. The simple solution is to select the "Refresh Work List", but I should have to do that if I don't want to refresh. NB: The "Refresh When Opening the Gantt View?" is not selected. So, if I look ...

RE: Meter Based Frequency PM - 50 Hours, then 250 Hours each subsequent PM

If you have Maximo for Transportation, where using PM relationships, you can say after the PM1 to deactive itself and activate PM2. There is no other clean way of doing this. You have to have two different PM's because if you one PM the base freq=50hrs, so JP1 interval=1 (or 50 hrs, and JP2 interval=5 ...

RE: PM with Job Plans, possible to have each JP not rely on previous to be completed?

Hi Jason, I think that there is still utter confusion! Firstly, let's discuss the word independent. You have four job plans: A, B, C, and D. The frequency does not matter. Typically, each subsequent job includes all the activities of the prior, but this is not always true, so this gives: (Scenario A) ...

Hi Anne, I was immediately thinking "how silly", but then the brain kicked in and told me not to be stupid. An escalation that fires an automation script screams out to me as the solution. Now for the further thoughts. There are three levels involved: Item at the ITEMSET Org at well the Org level Inventory ...

It's great to see that eAudit is being used. It has its issues, in that it does not have a memo capability. What is being missed is the use of eSignature which does support recording of a reason for the change. ------------------------------ Regards, Craig Kokay ISW Maximo Practice Manager eMail: ckokay@isw.net.au ...

Hi Troy. We understand a bit more now that we have more information, so I'm going to add some more detail, but also add that it's working as per design or rather, it's also worked this way.

An item that has been out into inventory will have a status in the Item application, then in the Item/Organization menu setting in the same application, and finally at the Inventory application. If you make the Item in the Inventory application obsolete, then you can still order the item, but not if ...

Hi Herman, I appreciate and understand how having more control over the CLASSSTRUCTUREID makes it easier than using the HIERARCHYPATH.

The CLASSSTRUCTUREID is normally not shown within the application, so that part of the screen has been changed.
