Hi

I'm using Maximo 7.6.06 with scheduler 7.6.4

I'd like to add the asset description and ancestor to the available columns in the Work Order List Pane. I've tried using the Configure Gantt Properties: Default Settings  option but I may be missing a step as they seem to be stored in the default settings and visible in the user settings but when I check the column for inclusion it does not show up in the column chooser

I think it may be related to the Attribute and object mapping but there are no instructions I can find to figure out if I'm populating it correctly

Can any shed any light on the steps I should take?

Thanks Geoff

Cheers

Geoff

Hi Geoff,

Some thoughts from my colleague Simon Barnes...

In order to add columns for users to be able to select you do need to use Default Settings and Attribute & Object Mapping - here's a basic page you may have already seen:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21663714

The thing to remember is the field has to be linked to one of the known objects - even if through a relationship.

Sometimes you might need to refresh the Schedule in order for the field to appear - also ensure that Show in Gantt View table? is checked and Is Persistent is not checked.

I added ASSETDESC property as follows:
Property Name: ASSETDESC
Title: Asset Description
Show in Gantt View table? - checked
Is Persistent? - not checked
Mapping As:
Object Name WORKORDER
Attribute Name ASSET.DESCRIPTION

To keep consistency, I often add the WORELEASE, WOACTIVITY, WOCHANGE, etc. as well as WORKORDER - check how WOPRIORITY is set up BUT this is not needed.
