Native Meter Reading Trends in Operational Dashboard

Description:
The operational dashboard is a great enhancement to Maximo Manage. I believe a great and necessary enhancement would be to include a straightforward way to visualize meter readings as time-series trends directly within it.


Right now, technicians can log readings into METERREADING, and I believe that seeing this data over time would be really valuable for asset health assessment — but the current paths require either KPI configuration, Monitor deployment with external connections, or BIRT reports.


Why This Would Help:
Meter-based PM is core to how teams track asset performance — runtime hours, cycle counts, fuel consumption. Technicians benefit most when they can see trends at a glance on the dashboard, especially during pre-PM planning. A native time-series widget would make this workflow seamless.


What I’m Imagining:
A dashboard widget that plots meter readings by date for a selected asset/meter — supporting both automated and manually-entered readings. Nothing complex, just a simple way to connect data entry to visibility.

    Thank you for entering this idea. Unfortunately it is not likely to be prioritized in the near-term.
    You can use a KPI Value and KPI Trend tile, or a Work Queue, to generate similar outcomes. For example:

    select readingdate,reading from meterreading where assetnum='11450' and metername='RUNHOURS' order by readingdate DESC

    Would result in KPI or Saved Query>Work Queue that look like these attachments. In the future, we may consider a widget that allows the user to edit the meter and asset with the dashboard editor.
