Adding MapEngine to a Maximo App’s XML

Adding MapEngine to a Maximo App’s XML

Feb 5, 2020 | 0 comments

MapEngine can interact with the following Maximo general applications: Assets, Locations, Routes, Preventive Maintenance, Service Requests, and Work Order Tracking.  To enable each one of these, you must first configure the Maximo presentation XML for a given application, using the MapEngine tag described below.

If you are migrating applications from one Maximo system to another, you may want to export the presentation XML from the working instance using the Application Designer for the applications that are configured with MapEngine. Then import those xml files into the new instance’s Application Designer.

Otherwise, to configure a new Maximo application for use with MapEngine, do the following:

  1. Use the Maximo Application Designer in the Maximo application (Maximo -> GoTo -> System Configuration -> Platform Configuration -> Application Designer) tool to add the tab(s) and add the desired fields to display. This may require you to add new fields to the Maximo database, depending on your requirements. See Maximo Database Configuration.
  2. Copy line 2 of the code snippet below  and paste it into the presentation XML (i.e. wotrack.xml, sr.xml), in between the last </tabgroup> and the last </clientarea> tags, like so:
</tabgroup>
	<agm7map filename="agMapESRI" id="agmapcontrol" />
</clientarea>  
  1. Save your changes and import them back into Maximo.
