    I'll start with this isn't officially supported by IBM and thus could be removed in the future. But it's great, especially for adding objects where it can take care of a lot of the hard work for you (though you still need to manage relationships and domains). I've found it does not work very well for applications so I rarely use it for that. This doesn't handle screen changes at all and signature options/menus have to be added individually (the create app literally just adds the one line to the DBC file to add the app). It's easier for me to write a SQL statement to generate the DBC file entry needed for the menu/signature options then me to manually type them one by one.

    But as for how to use it, as you've seen based on the screenshot, you provide the connection information and then add the various components that you need. Once you're done you use the File->Generate Script option and it'll create a DBC file with everything referenced in the naming format listed at the top (like V7600__05.dbc) in the same folder (tools\maximo\internal). From there you can run it in your new environment. If you need help with running the DBC files just let me know.

    For application definition (aka presentation xml), you can use mxdiff.bat and mxapply.bat tools under \tools\maximo\screen-upgrade
