  • 1.  Inbound Table Integration, Outbound Web Services

    Posted Wed October 05, 2022 07:12 PM
    We have a requirement for two integrations in Maximo.  One is an existing inbound integration for time reporting, using an interface table.  The other is an outbound webservices interface.  The requirement is that all transactions that are processed from the inbound interface need to be passed through Maximo to the outbound web services interface, which goes to the financial system.

    At the moment, the existing inbound interface is working, and transactions are being process in Maximo and showing up in LABTRANS.  However, once processed, the transactions are not being forwarded to the web services outbound interface.  Can someone give me an idea on how to fix this?  Or maybe it's not possible given the different interface architectures?

    TIA

    It's not related to the difference in endpoints. Any inbound integration into Maximo will not trigger publish channels by default. It is something you can override with an event filter automation script on the publish channel in question. We cover this type of automation script here: https://ibm-maximo-dev.github.io/maximo-autoscript-documentation/integration/publishevents

    Your script can be as simple as evalresult=False to indicate you don't want the message processing to be skipped.
