Configure Outbound Work Orders to Maximo

Map mRounds Issue fields and plant-specific values to create Work Orders in Maximo.

A Maximo connection exists. See Establish a Connection with Maximo for Master Data Integration.

The Issue template of the plant has the categories, priorities, and statuses to map.

The Work Order integration creates Work Orders in Maximo from mRounds Issues through the Maximo API. This flow does not use the Kafka work order events in Configure Maximo Work Order Events for mRounds.

  1. Click the Integrations Manager module on the left side pane.
  2. Select the Maximo connection in the Connections section.
  3. Click Add Integration.
  4. In the Add Integration Point window, select Work Order from the Select Integration Point drop-down.

    The list also offers Master Data and ERP Notification. Master Data cannot be selected again if a Master Data integration already exists for the connection.

    Add Integration Point dialog listing Master Data, ERP Notification and Work Order

  5. Select the plant from the Plants drop-down.
  6. In the URL Path field, enter the Maximo API path for Work Orders.

    Example: /maximo/api/os/MXAPIWODETAIL. Use the path configured for your Maximo deployment.

  7. Select Integration Type as Outbound and Data Sync Time as Real-time.

  8. Under Data Mapping, enter the Maximo attribute for each mRounds Issue field.

  9. Map the category, priority, and status values of the plant to the Maximo values.

    The values listed come from the Issue template of the selected plant. Enter the Maximo code for each value. Examples:
