Equipment Hierarchy Listing
While not actually a "hack", this report is an embellishment of the equipment hierarchy report provided with Maximo by PSDI. It will print an indented equipment hierarchy, up to ten levels deep, starting with the the equipment number that you specify.
Equipment Failure Class Hierarchy Listing
Again, not exactly a "hack", but an embellished report to list the failure class hierarchies.
