In Maximo Mobile, when a work order is marked as CAL (calibration) and has a datasheet associated with it, the datasheet information is not displayed when executing the work order from mobile if the linked asset is not calibration-enabled. However, the core system does not impose any restrictions based on whether an asset is flagged for calibration or not, and still allows work order execution with the associated datasheet information. Given this, why does Maximo Mobile have this limitation? What is the reasoning behind this behavior, and why is it necessary to explicitly specify whether the asset is calibration-enabled for the datasheet to display? Could this be a design limitation, or is there a specific technical or functional rationale behind this discrepancy between the core system and the mobile app?

I'd open a support case on this. We hide that section based on the asset iscalibration flag but I think this is a mistake personally. I don't think there's any fundamental reason behind it other than they wanted to hide the section when a datasheet isn't present and they picked the wrong way to do it.

Thanks @Steven Shull and i do agree with you there is no reason of hiding the section on Asset Flag or Loop calibration flag the idea should be to hide if no datasheet is liked if a datasheet linked regardless of asset association it should display.
