This blog will walk you through the process of creating a Workorder using the SiteId of the chosen Asset rather than the user's default SiteId. When loading assets from different sites onto mobile and creating a workorder for an asset that is not under the user's default SiteId, this is useful.

This also includes a helpful example of how to override a controller method when customizing your Maximo Mobile applications.

pageInitialized(page, app) {

    if (["createwo", "woedit"].includes(page.name)) {

      let controller = page.controllers[0];

      const datasourceName = page.name === "createwo" ? "dsCreateWo" : "dsWoedit";

      const orgChooseAssetItem = controller.chooseAssetItem.bind(controller);

      const orgChooseAsset = controller.chooseAsset.bind(controller);

     // When the user types a known asset in the input box
      controller.chooseAssetItem = (item) => {

        orgChooseAssetItem(item);

        app.findDatasource(datasourceName).item.siteid = item.siteid;

      };


      // When the user selects an asset from the lookup
      controller.chooseAsset = (item) => {

        orgChooseAsset(item);

        app.findDatasource(datasourceName).item.siteid = item.siteid;

      };

    }

  }
