    Do I need to create an external system just like you did to make this work?

    • http://interprosoft.com Chon

      No, that is just one way to do it. It depends on how you want to import your data. I showed how to import via interface tables, hence the endpoint for my external system is MXIFACETABLE. You can use the existing EXTSYS1 to import via XML files.

        Is there a way to add the Persons without having to manually add them to Maximo first?

        • http://maximotimes.com Chon Neth

          You could use MIF to import the person record first.

    Excellent video. In your video you set the password to maximotest. What if I want to import users from Maximo 6 where they already have a password which is stored as an encrypted value. (i.e. How do I tell the MIF that the password I supplied is an encrypted value?)

    • http://interprosoft.com Chon

      I don’t think that is possible. If they are already in the database then you can just update all other fields except for the password.
