Start Center Color Alert Expressions need more flexibility

We have many requests for color alerts in the Start Center Portlets across our enterprise Maximo Asset Management. We are currently in Maximo 7.6.1.2. In the Start Center Configuration Tool, Color Alert tab, users would like to be able to use a calculation as the Expression which is not currently available. A simple example is in the SR application, users wish to see the record listing in the portlet to be red when a certain date attribute is related to today’s date (CHANGEDATE IS less than or equal to today’s date minus 60 days). In the current toolset, the expression will only operate on a specified value (CHANGEDATE is less than or equal to 12/31/21). Because the dates on these records are used to track efficiencies and performance metrics, knowing the age of a record becomes very important to our management. In the Ad Hoc / QBR Reporting tool, the Calculate tab allows for this already and provides an expression lookup and ability to test the expression. (&DATE& - CHANGEDATE). Could this functionality be added to the Portlet Configuration?

    Thank you for your submission. As the modernized role based applications are developed more color range capabilities for KPI's and list pages will be considered.
