Scripting is a new feature that was introduced in Maximo version 7.5 based on
the feedback from the user community who yearned to have a simpler yet
effective way of customizing the product without having to go through the pain of
system downtime and steep learning curve.

While Maximo provides great many customization points, most of them needs
JAVA coding skills to do any meaningful [logic based] customization. It also
would often need deep knowledge of Maximo apis as well as the Maximo
internals. That can often be a daunting task even for an experienced
programmer.

More to come….
