Status Planned for future release

Show all the application tabs from the List Tab

In the new Maximo Manage this function as explained in this link is gone https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/show-all-application-tabs-list-tab

It is disappointing that this new version of Maximo Manage has lost a very practical and unique feature. While IBM has significantly redesigned the screens, the navigation has become more challenging, and unfortunately this valuable functionality was not retained.

For context, I have been using Maximo since 1997, and with major upgrades I often see useful features disappear — and it appears to have happened again in this release.

    Thank you for voting and commenting on this idea. We have analyzed and see that this is causing an extra page load and click. We will look into this and try to come up with an option that works with the IBM design system, but it may not be the same as it was in 7.6.

    Looks like there are many others requesting this same thing under enhancements. Would love to see this done.

    Thank you for your submission. Can you further explain the need to see all the detailed tabs at the same time as the list tab? Not clear how this change has effected navigation within the application?
