Our Maximo

Integration control used in making conditions for processing  provides a way to match xml field or object field with particular value. We have 4 types of integration control 1. Value 2.List 3. XRef 4.Boolean Value control is used to compare with single value. List control is used to compare with list of values which may come from domains. Boolean control is true or false value used to compare yorn field I personally never used it. XRef control i.e cross reference control is used to to swap values foe example we have different orgid in other system than we can define cross reference control inorder to translate. We create cross reference control and associate it with enterprise service or publish channel. We can also override these values at external system level.

Hi Recently I came across a requirement where I have to calculated estimated duration value based sum of planned labor for all tasks and work order. While implementing this I came across situation where I was not getting correct /modified values of planned labors via wplabor relationship. We should use relationship "SHOWPLANLABOR" or "SHOWTASKS" to get modified relationship. This will give modified values instead of WPLABOR.

Steps 1. Create an action. 2. Create an autoscript with below code Option 1  from psdi.iface.mic import PublishChannelCache PublishChannelCache.getInstance().getPublishChannel(pubChannelName).publish(mbo, true); Option 2  server.lookup("MIC").exportdata("MYPUBLISHCHN","MYEXTSYS","WHERECLAUSE", useirnfo,-1) 3. Create a object strucutre and Publish channel and External System. 4. Enable Publish channel and External System. 5. Apply autoscript on that action and Run that action.

Soap 1. Soap uses HTTP Post Methods or Operations. 2. Creating soap web service we get wsdl files which have data and operations. 3. Soap has overhead so should not be used for Mobile 4. Soap gives data in XML format. 5. We can create java files from Soap Web services. Rest 1. Uses Get and Post, Put and delete function to perform options. 2.  Here we get URI using which we can perform Get,Post or Put functions. 3. Rest is lightweight. 4. Rest gives data in XML, JSON and Text.

Maximo allows us to change status in future date using select action change status but with a catch that you can't go to next status in between dates For example If you select change status and change statusdate from todays date to 10 days after today.  Maximo will not allow you to change another status before these 10 days. Entry for this is done in wostatus table in status date for the 10 th day from today.

This is a case where you were not able to change item number of this asset from change item number. This error comes when we use select action "change Item Number" on asset application and assets location is inventory. To resolve this error you need to transfer this item to non inventory location using inventory usage application only. Also you need to select asset number or given full quantity if you want to move all asset attached with same item number and complete this record then asset location will be changed to your mentioned location inventory usage line. Then you will be able to change item no. on asset application.

One reason of it will be you have not put your jsp file in webcontent folder of you dynamic web project.

TO generate wsdl files from stub use following procedure Go to bin directory in cmd prompt C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\bin Enter command WSIMPORT <Your wsdl Path?WSDL> If you recieve error for space in program space files use this command Go to D: "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\bin" -Keep <Your wsdl Path?WSDL> To define path where you want your files to be placed use wdimport "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\bin" -Keep -s D:\MyProject <Your wsdl Path?WSDL>

This method is used to skip certain attributes on duplication. @Override protected boolean skipCopyField(MboValueInfo arg0) throws RemoteException, MXException { // TODO Auto-generated method stub boolean b=super.skipCopyField(arg0); String attributeName=arg0.getAttributeName(); for (int i = 0; i < dup.length; i++) { if(dup[i].equalsIgnoreCase(attributeName)) return true; } return b; }

SetValueNull(Attributename) and setValueNull(Attributename,accessmodifiers) this is method is used to set current mbo's value to null it is a misconception that it will set all values of mboset to Null.

You need to extend statefull bean class for this Sample class would be package custom.webclient.beans.workorder; import java.rmi.RemoteException; import psdi.mbo.MboSetRemote; import psdi.mbo.StatefulMboRemote; import psdi.util.MXApplicationException; import psdi.util.MXException; import psdi.webclient.system.beans.DataBean; public class CustStatefulAppBean extends StatefulAppBean { public int WSCH() throws RemoteException, MXException { DataBean db = app.getAppBean(); StatefulMboRemote mbo = (StatefulMboRemote) db.getMbo(); targetStatusOption = "WPCOND"; statusChangeButtonSigoption = "WPCOND"; mbo.setTargetStatusOption("WPCOND"); mbo.setStatusChangeButtonSigoption("WPCOND"); STATUSSUB(); clientSession.loadDialog("status"); return 1; }           public int STATUSSUB() throws MXException, RemoteException {      DataBean appBean = app.getAppBean();    StatefulMboRe...

Quite often peple write redundant code Example MboSetRemote invoiceLineSet=invoice.getMboSet("invoiceline"); if(invoiceLine.isEmpty()){ MboRemote invoiceLineMbo=invoiceLineSet.moveFirst(); while (invoiceLineMbo!=null) { Long constransId=invoiceLineMbo.getLong("CONSTRANSID"); if(constransId>0) { StringBuilder sb=new StringBuilder(); sb.append(String.ValueOf(constransId)); } } Here this line if(invoiceLine.isEmpty()){ is not nacessary because we are not taking string value of out of mboset or calling any moethod  from it sb.append(String.ValueOf(constransId)); this is also not required because sb.append method can handle Long values.

To configure text to take multiple values as query you can either right a bean class for dialog or you can do this :- <textbox dataattribute="persongroup" id="PersongGroupId1" inputmode="query" label="Person Group"

Create Maxdomain :--------- insert into maxdomain ( domainid, description, domaintype, maxtype, length, scale, maxdomainid, internal, rowstamp) values ('APPSTATUS', 'App Status', 'SYNONYM', 'UPPER', 20, 0, maxdomainseq.nextval, 1, maxseq.nextval) ; Query for inserting values in domain insert into synonymdomain ( domainid, maxvalue, value, description, defaults, siteid, orgid, synonymdomainid, valueid, rowstamp) values ('APPSTATUS', 'WAPPR', 'WAPPR', 'Waiting on Approval', 1, null, null, synonymdomainseq.nextval, 'APPSTATUS|WAPPR', maxseq.nextval) ;

In Maximo Application XML you can restrict records to be display in list tab For example to restrict records of workorder you can use <presentation apphelp="com.ibm.mbs.doc,wotrack/c_wo_tracking_application.html"  apprestriction="status!='CAN'" beanclass="psdi.plusp.webclient.beans.pluspwo.PlusPWorkorderAppBean" id="wotrack" mboname="WORKORDER" resultstableid="results_showlist" version="7.1.0.0">

I maximo we can use audit table to identify who delete this record. You can check W_AUDIT table for check this, entries will be created based on filter condition you apply in database configuration for this record. Here we can see type of change like I for insert, D for Delete and U for update.

Points on interface table integratio :- 1. While doing interface table integration we will create interface table. 2. Maximo Iface table cron pics data from this table and process them based on MXOUT_INTER_TRANS table accordingly. 3. When you make any change in obj structure, you need to recreate interface table. 4. While creating interface table again if you check rename option interface table creates backup table with interfacename_back. 5. Data will no delete from MXOUT_INTER_TRANS table when you regenerate interface table. 6. Interface table can also be seen as a object in database configuration.
