Always subject to change but the plan is for November 22nd for the release date. My role is primarily focused on Manage/Maximo Mobile so I can't speak for additions to the other products. This list also isn't exhaustive for these products but gives an idea of some of the things we're working on.
Licensing
Environments can be established as Prod/Non-Prod which will allow you to only license the Production system for per-install components (Spatial, Assist, SAP Adapter, etc.). This has been a common request.
Manage
Some of the Work Centers and all the Anywhere applications will be removed in this release. We've posted this a few different places (including Kim's blog post here:
https://community.ibm.com/community/user/asset-facilities/blogs/kim-woodbury1/2022/08/16/deprecation-of-manage-work-centers-and-anywhere-in?CommunityKey=3d7261ae-48f7-481d-b675-a40eb407e0fd) but it's worth re-emphasizing
We're updated to Java 11, Cloud Pack for Data 4.5, and OpenShift 4.10
New role-based applications (Scheduling Dashboard, Work Orders, Workflow Assignments, & API Key) built on the Maximo Application Framework. Work Orders & Workflow Assignments are grouped together under the Maintenance Manager project and will add a Dashboard component in future releases. The Scheduling Dashboard utilizes the Maximo Optimizer and supports a wide variety of capabilities.
Maximo Mobile
Our first release of the asset data manager application. Initially this is a read-only view of data.
Inspections will support an alternative status instead of Complete for indicating that it's ready to be reviewed. This status is still editable but indicates the technician is "done" with it
Inspections will better support batch inspections
Inspections will now allow you to search for specific questions on the form
Service Requests will now support location drilldown, capturing GPS, & adding service address information
Many enhancements to the map experience including indoor maps.
