  • 1.  MAS9 Inspection Form Management doesn't support the use of Table Domains

    Posted Thu August 08, 2024 10:46 AM

    HI,

    While preparing a use case for a client, I encountered a need for inspection forms to facilitate the execution of audits and safety drills, such as those mandated by the ISM (International Maritime Organization) like Man Overboard, Fire Drill, Oil Pollution, and other vessel-related safety drills.

    To ensure accurate validation and evaluation, a list of attendees must be recorded at the end of each drill using an inspection-based evaluation form. Given that all attendees are individuals or users in Maximo, it would have been ideal if the inspection form supported table domains.

    This would enable the evaluator to select attendees from a predefined list of active persons or users. Regrettably, the current MAS9 Inspection Form Manager only accommodates ALN or Numeric domains.

    Has anyone in the community encountered a similar challenge? In my view, this would be a valuable addition since many inspection forms, whether for audits or other purposes, often necessitate a similar feature. The use of table domains would greatly enhance user experience by providing a predefined and restricted list for selection.

    Hi,

    back in 7.6 I've done a little bit of customization for inspection form to enable table domain support with single selection, but it was a bit of challenge to get that working. Getting that done with containerized MAS would be even harder, but i think totally possible.

    Regards,

    Hi Witold,

    Thanks for the reply, fellow IBM Champion. In the mean time I have raised an idea and my colleague and fellow IBM Champion @Andrew Jeffery already asked his IBM Peers (Russel Bee) to pick this up and put it on the backlog with high priority. If you also think this is a valuable extension please vote.

    I strongly support it and it's something we've talked about. I posted on your idea but we have two other ideas for the same thing that we need to merge so the ideas don't have their vote split.

    Hi,

    I had a similar requirement and was surprised why would it not work.

    Is it something to do with most uses of inspection forms being used on mobile devices and will mean all the table data will have to be loaded?

    But then for companies using inspection forms on browsers it limits using table domain :(
