Here are the complete steps to achieve it.
  • Create a Signature Option

  • Provide appropriate permission to Signature option

  • Attach this Signature Option to the attribute whose lookup you want to change or hide.

  • Click on "Configure Conditional Property."

  • Add a condition for when you want to display the Lookup.

  • In the Property field, write "lookup," and in the Value field, write "Your_Lookup_ID."

  • For the false condition, you can choose another Lookup ID to display a different lookup, or you can leave it blank if you want to hide the lookup.

  • You need to leave the lookup field blank in the Attributes property.

This article explains how to change or hide lookups associated with an attribute in Maximo using a signature option. By configuring conditional properties and specifying lookup IDs, you can control which lookup is displayed or hidden based on specific conditions.

Today, while working on the signature option in Maximo, a question came to mind: what if I could hide or change the lookup under certain conditions?

I wasn't sure if it was possible, but I worked on it for about 3-4 hours, and suddenly, I found a very easy solution. I can hardly believe it's that simple to do.
