    🤔 I've proposed adding a "Where Used" tab to the Failure Codes application in Maximo, giving users a simple way to view all Assets and Locations tied to a specific code. ✅ If this improvement would help your organization, you can vote for the idea here: https://lnkd.in/emp2ay3P on the IBM Ideas Portal.💡 You can create a free account and submit your own Maximo ideas as well. 💻

    A tab with a view isn't too hard to create, but I thought it would be beneficial for all users if this was standard in Maximo.



    Description:
    Add a "Where Used" tab to the Failure Codes application that shows all Assets and Locations where a selected Failure Code is assigned. This would work the same way the Where Used tab does in Inventory.

    Use Case:
    When cleaning up or standardizing Failure Codes, it's difficult to know which Assets or Locations currently reference a given code. Right now, users either have to run SQL or manually search multiple applications.

    Benefit:
    A simple "Where Used" view would make it easy to see exactly where a Failure Code is in use, reduce cleanup effort, and prevent accidental impact when trying to clean up the list of Failure Codes in the system.
