New in configuring Maximo Asset Management 7.6

When you first install Maximo Asset Management, you are provided with minimal data to get started. You can now install content packs that contain predefined artifacts and sample data that you can later modify to suit your needs. The packs are version-specific and most take minutes to download, saving you configuration time. You use the Content Installer application to locate, download, and install the content packs. The content tab of the Content Installer displays a list of the content packages that are available for Maximo Asset Management. The Content Installer Enabler is an application license key that provides access to the Content Installer application in your product environment. Learn more about the Content Installer Enabler

Packs are available for Work Management, Inventory Management, Purchasing or Procurement, and Classifications. Packs come with artifacts, such as Start Centers, security groups, workflows, roles, actions, and escalations. For example, with the Work Management content pack, you receive a complete work management system with a set of workflows to manage work orders that are generated from multiple sources. The work management pack includes artifacts such as basic workflows and work types, work log entries, actions, roles, person and security groups, saved queries, communication templates, and escalations. The PCPs are provided with some assumptions about the processes that you use. For example, the Work Management pack assumes that you use standard inventory processes, but you can reconfigure the contents of the pack if necessary. Learn more about Process Content Packs
