Only automatically approve/lock inside labor actuals once the WO is completed (optional setting)

There is a Organizations application setting that automatically approves inside labor actuals -- when saved. That setting is useful; it cuts down on effort/confusion when labor actuals need to be manually approved for each WO. However, to us, it d...

Allow supervisors to edit an approved labor actual (while the WO is still INPRG)

In WOTRACK: It would be helpful if IBM could add an action/dialog that would allow supervisors to edit an approved labor actual while the WO is still INPRG. To us, it doesn't make sense that labor actuals become locked forever when they are approv...

PR item: Worklog dialog before deleting (optional system setting)

Could IBM please consider implementing a worklog dialog when a user deletes a PR item? (as an optional system setting) Screenshot: https://i.stack.imgur.com/SS9wR.png So that we will have a record of the deletion details in the worklog: Who delete...

Use a CLASSIFICATION multiple times within a hierarchy path

There is an arbitrary limitation in Maximo where we can only use each CLASSIFICATION once in a given hierarchy path. It would be helpful if we could use a CLASSIFICATION multiple times within a hierarchy path. Related info here: CLASSIFICATION table

Manage/cancel back-end processes from UI (i.e. pmwogen)

Need a way to manage/cancel back-end processes from Maximo UI (i.e. pmwogen) More information here: How to interrupt PM-->Generate WOs? We would prefer to do this via the Maximo UI instead of WebSphere. And we don't want to restart the whole JV...

Filter table window on other fields

In applications, we have tabs (non-list view) --> table windows . Within table windows, we have table columns and table details sections. I often want to search the table window on fields that are not included in the table columns. For example,...
