Conditional expression syntax | IBM Maximo

You enter conditional expressions using a syntax similar to Structured Query Language (SQL) with some additional variables.
When you create a conditional expression, use a colon (:) to define a variable. The colon is used to avoid ambiguity when you create expressions that relate the current record to a different, specific record.
You can have subselect in an expression,
exists (select 1 from workorder where wonum=:wonum).
The first wonum is the wonum attribute on the work order object. At run time, the second wonum is replaced with the value of the wonum attribute for the current record.

How to Delete Custom Applications from Maximo | IBM Maximo

Note: First of all shut down application server before going to delete an application.

run these SQL commands one by one:

delete from maxapps where app='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from maxpresentation where app='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from sigoption where app='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from applicationauth where app='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from maxlabels where app='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from maxmenu where moduleapp='CSPINSPECTION' and menutype!='MODULE';
delete from maxmenu where elementtype='APP' and keyvalue='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from appdoctype where app= 'CSPINSPECTION';
delete from sigoptflag where app='CSPINSPECTION';
delete from wfapptoolbar where appname='CSPINSPECTION';

Now just start the application server, deleted application is now longer available. Wasn't that simple.

if you added any system XMLs for your app (like lookups), then you will need to export the System XML and manually remove them and then re-import. (Or just import the copy of the system XML you should have made before you started.
