Maximo Application Suite stores data at four key levels, what are two of these levels?

  4% (2)
• B
  95% (52)
• C
  2% (1)

Explanation

Site (B) and System (E) are two of Maximo Application Suite's four key data hierarchy levels. The full hierarchy runs: System → Organization → Site → Set (e.g., Item Set or Company Set). Data configured at a higher level (System) can cascade down, while Site-level data is more localized - making both levels fundamental to how MAS partitions and shares information across an enterprise.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A. User - Users exist within the system but are not one of the four structural data levels; they interact with the hierarchy rather than define it.
• C. Asset - Assets are records managed within the MAS hierarchy, not a level of the hierarchy itself.
• D. Tools - Not a data storage level at all; this is a distractor with no architectural meaning in the MAS data model.

Memory tip: Use the acronym SOSS - System, Organization, Site, Set - top to bottom. On exam questions, watch for answers that name objects stored in Maximo (like Asset) versus the structural levels that organize storage. If an option sounds like a record type rather than a container, it's likely wrong.
