BiLog: National Parks....Maximo OnLine Resources Excuse me….can you toss me a life line? These words gushed out of my mouth as we biked up the steep summit of Champlain Mountain in Acadia National Park in the blistering July heat. But with my family well in the distance…my words were soon lost amongst the magnificent trees and rocks surrounding me. However, your words and feedback on Maximo reporting are not lost. You have continually requested more information on functionality, best practices and customizations - - and we are continuing to build up that information for you. Recently, new pages have been created and presentations recorded on the on-line resources available to you including: Key Maximo Reporting OnLine Resources Page This new page highlights a number of the top sites including a brief description of how you can best use them.
