New Automation Script Launch Point to Support Roles

Maximo automation scripts enable organizations to extend Maximo functionality without downtime and without having to write custom java classes. We'd like to see support added for an automation script launch point in the Roles application to replace custom java classes. Workflows and Communication Templates use roles to determine who should be notified/get assigned. Most of the time, this results in using database relationships to show data related to a record.

Some situations are more complicated and can't be handled with a SQL where clause. We'd like to be able to handle these situations without needing custom java classes so we can make changes without rebuilding and redeploying the ears.
