Populating Custom Table Attributes on WO Creation from Techmobile app in Maximo Mobile

  • 1.  Populating Custom Table Attributes on WO Creation from Techmobile app in Maximo Mobile

    Hi all -

    I am on 7.6.1.2 with Maximo Mobile 8.8 IF008.

    I have an automation script WORKORDER.NEW which creates a record in a custom table (say workorder_extra) and populates few attributes in the workorder_extra table. I need to create this record and populate the attributes when a new work order is created from Maximo Mobile Techmobile app. Because I can not add this custom table to my object structure MXAPIWODETAIL, what are my option to achieve this requirement?

    There are multiple fields of this custom table which I need to bring to the create work order UI in techmobile app and therefore, I don't prefer them creating as persistent or non-persistent attributes otherwise it would have been easier.

    Can I duplicate MXAPIWODETAIL and add the custom object to the object structure? But, there are many references of this object structure which I will need to change and not sure if that's a good idea. Plus Approvals app also uses this object structure.

    Has anyone done this? Any pointers please?

    Thanks.
