(Record) OF (Records) in List View

It will help to know where we are within the list when: * reviewing records (timing in a meeting, and other basic reasons) * making adjustments to a long list of records (so we don't have to keep referring back to the list) * and it is simply a basic expectation for any system. It would help all users and de-escalate the frustration of non-met most basic expectations of a system to the users. * I have heard this complaint from many users over the years. How it works: (the counted number of record the user is in - down the sorted list) OF (the number of records count in the query result) This should work in ALL modules. It doesn't stop the work, but it definitely slows down the process for those doing tiring data entry or records review. Motivation wise - if one can see how far along they are, they will pace themselves faster to see those numbers ticking up/down. Instant gratification. ;-) vs. having to go look to see how much closer to the end they are. In a meeting - it helps timing. "We have fifteen more we need to cover in ten minutes - please pace your comments accordingly."

    Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations, and ideas.

    I am sorry to inform you that our team has evaluated the request and has determined that it cannot be implemented at this time in data tables. However, we are modernizing the user experience of Maximo, which includes a modernized data tables where a record count/pagination view is a base feature and already available in MAS applications.

    If you would like to be involved in the features of the new MAS applications or other Maximo modernization efforts at IBM, please email smithjor@us.ibm.com to become part of our sponsored user group, which is a program where you and people in your organization become active participants in the Maximo design process, working alongside our design teams to help us create great future experiences for real target users.
