Conditionally Hiding Workorders

From: mmangier (2016-04-28 07:08)

I have a group of work orders that should be hidden (or read only) for most groups. I know I can create a conditional expression for this, but I am concerned that this will create performance issues, since this will have to be evaluated every time users access the work order table. I was also thinking I could use app restrictions and have these work orders show in a cloned app only. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I don't want to use workflow.

Maximo 7.5

Thank you, Mary

Hi Mary,
I prefer the cloned App idea and make a presentation condition/clause to
show only those WOs

If it's the entire workorder, set it as a group restriction on the rows. It's evaluated once and applied when a user in that group accesses the application.

Yes, it is the entire workorder. And it will be restricted for all but 1 or 2 groups. Do those get evaluated every time the user access the application or just once per session? Thank you. Mary

--------------------------

The restriction is pulled in on login, and applied every time the user accesses the application. But it's a WHERE clause, so the overhead isn't going to be noticed and the result set will actually be a little faster.

Thank you for your help. I will give this a try.
