IBM Maximo Adapter forMicrosoft ProjectOverview1The IBM Maximo Adapter for Microsoft Project adds a Maximo menu to theMicrosoft Project menu bar, so you can:Map work order and PM data from the MAXIMO database to MicrosoftProject.! Create Maximo work orders from tasks that you created in MicrosoftProject! Filter work order, PM, and calendar data from the MAXIMO database.!Maximo MenuAfter filtering the Maximo data, you can perform project planning tasks withthe Maximo work orders and save schedule data back to existing work ordersin the MAXIMO database.Starting Maximo for ProjectWhen you open Maximo for Project, the Maximo for Project Startup dialog boxopens.

Using Maximo Data in Microsoft ProjectUsing Maximo Data in Microsoft ProjectThese procedures show how to transfer work order or PM data from aMAXIMO database into Microsoft Project.Process OverviewThese steps summarize how to create a project in Microsoft Project usingMaximo data:1 Create and save a Maximo query.2 Create a new project in Microsoft Project.3 Log in to Maximo from Microsoft Project.4 Select a Maximo work order or PM query.5 Modify the project.6 If you selected a work order query, return schedule data and insert newwork orders into the MAXIMO database.IBM Maximo Adapter for Microsoft Project Overview1-3

Using Maximo Data in Microsoft ProjectCreating a Project in Microsoft Project Using Maximo Data1 In Maximo’s Work Order Tracking or Preventive Maintenance application,create and save a query.2 In Microsoft Project, open a new Maximo project.3 In the Maximo for Project Startup dialog box, click New MaximoProject.The Log In to Maximo dialog box opens.4 Enter the user name and password for your MAXIMO database.You can set default login values for the Log In to Maximo dialogbox in the MaximoProject.ini file.NOTE5 Click OK.6 Select the type of data to transfer from Maximo to Microsoft Project:!!To transfer work order data, select Maximo Select Work Orders.To forecast PMs in Microsoft Project, select Maximo Select PMs.The Select Work Orders or Select PMs dialog box opens.7 Click the row containing the appropriate query. You see only publicqueries and queries you created.!!To filter the results, click the Advanced tab.To preview the results, click the Preview tab.8 After selecting the appropriate query, click OK to transfer the work orderor PM data, including assignments, craft and tool resources, and resourceavailability.NOTEThe results may differ when using the same query in Maximoand Maximo for Project.9 Use Microsoft Project to perform project planning and management tasks.10 Save the project in a Microsoft Project file (.MPP) so you can schedule orupdate it later.1-4IBM Maximo Adapter for Microsoft Project: User’s Guide

Using Maximo Data in Microsoft Project11 (Optional) To save the data back to Maximo, select Maximo Save WOto Maximo.NOTEIf the active project includes several subprojects, all work orderdata is saved to Maximo. However, if the active project includes PMsubprojects and work order subprojects, only the work order data issaved.12 (Optional) To update the saved project from Maximo, select Maximo Update Work Orders.Difference in Maximo and Maximo for Project Query ResultsThe results may differ when using the same query in Maximo and Maximo forProject.MaximoMaximo for ProjectDisplays only the selectedwork orders or PMs.Displays the parent and its entire childhierarchy, providing a more comprehensiveand accurate schedule.IBM Maximo Adapter for Microsoft Project Overview1-5

Using the Maximo MenuTo select work orders:1 In Microsoft Project, select Maximo Select Work Orders.The Select Work Orders dialog box opens, displaying the Queries tab.2 Click the row containing the appropriate query. You see only publicqueries and queries you saved in Maximo.3 Click the Advanced tab to filter the query results. Use these subtabs:!Constraints: Select a scheduling constraint for your project. You mayselect only one constraint type.NOTEUse this option to use Maximo’s Schedule or Target date toschedule the work order in Microsoft Project.NOTEYou can only constrain tasks that are not summaries of othertasks. Mixing child and parent constraints can violate MicrosoftProject’s business rules and cause problems with work ordertransfers.In practice, when you constrain work orders, Maximo forProject uses that constraint on all tasks at the lowesthierarchical level.To manipulate groups of tasks, transfer the parent tasks fromMaximo, then set the constraints in Microsoft Project.ConstraintsProcedureDescriptionWork Order DateSelect a work order date: Scheduled Start,Scheduled Finish, Target Start, TargetFinish.Constrains the task byscheduling or targeting thework order’s start and finishdates.NOTETask Constraint TypeLeaving this field blank disables theTask Constraint Type field.Select a constraint type: Must Start On,Start No Earlier Than*, Start No LaterThan, Must Finish On, Finish No EarlierThan*, or Finish No Later Than.Constrains the task bystarting or finishing it onspecified dates.*Recommended selectionsNOTE1-8The available selections depend on thedate in the Work Order Date field.IBM Maximo Adapter for Microsoft Project: User’s Guide

Using the Maximo Menu!Calendars: Transfer Maximo asset and labor calendars to MicrosoftProject. Enter specific dates within which to transfer the calendars.NOTETransferring calendar data can significantly impactperformance; make the date range as small as possible.NOTEWhen you transfer asset calendars into Microsoft Project, theyare the inverse of what they are in Maximo.Maximo’s asset calendar displays when the asset is operating.Microsoft Project’s asset calendar displays the asset’s downtime(when it is available for preventive maintenance).Upon receiving the asset calendar from Maximo, Maximo forProject names the calendar with the asset number, and makesthe asset calendar an attribute of the work order beingscheduled.!Task Priority: Filter the query results by work order, calculated, orlocation/asset priority. When Maximo’s work orders are copied toMicrosoft Project, they become tasks and are assigned a priority basedon Maximo’s priority setting for the work order.Select one setting (which uses the value from a column of the MAXIMOdatabase’s WORKORDER table):Maximo Priority FieldColumnDescriptionWork OrderWOPRIORITY(Default) This is the priority level of thework order assigned in the work order orby a job plan.Calculated PriorityCALCPRIORITYMaximo calculates this value using aformula combining the Work OrderPriority and Location/Asset Priority valuesto produce the Work Priority value.Location/Asset PriorityASSETLOCPRIORITYThis is the priority level
