Workcenter Customization

Slowly but gradually Maximo will make you work on front end only.

To make it fully front end customizable tool workcenter is introduce which eventually will replance existing core maximo screens.

We for customizing workcenter you need know basics of JavaScript/jquery and rest api.


If you go to Maximo application path C:\ibm\maximo\application\maximo-x

you will be able to see files which contain HTML and jquery files.

Their are lot of lybraries which you require knowledge to customize work centers

Key libraries are

1. Polymer.html
2. Jquery UI (Most Important)


What is Polymer.html or Polymer api is doing is you create separate-separate components like
login,authentication, rest etc. and using this polymer api you import those components where it is required.

What else you can do with polymer is you create you custom html element give it a name and use it.

So you don't have all the code on one page and it will not look very bulky code for you.


Jquery UI gives you UI components like accordian, date picker which you can using for UI development.


For Workcenter customization you need to setup node.js.

Then you need to install bower which will help us creating a polymer application.

We have following existing workcenters

Workcenter for Business Analyst

Service Request Work Center

Maximo Supervisor

Manage Inventory

Maximo Technician


Back to Polymer :-

Polymer has a collection of elements

  • App
  • Paper
  • Iron
  • Gold
  • Platinum
  • Neon

Using these elements we can create our own markups.

We create cross reference control and associate it with enterprise service or publish channel. We can also override these values at external system level.
