Power BI Integration
We recently set up an API for Power BI so we can make some advanced reports from Limble. Here are a few that we've cooked up so far. Year-Over-Year Data The reports in Limble are great but one thing they can't do is show multiple years overlaying on the same graph. This graph shows how many tasks were completed by month.…

Student Room WO Requests To make it easier for students to quickly submit work requests we used Avery labels and printed out a code for every room on campus. This isn’t too bad once…

Map it out: Some Directions for Your Directions
The mapping feature in Limble is great once you starting using it but taking the first step can be disorienting.

Buildings/Rooms This was the first thing I mapped out when I got…

The Maintenance Reality Check: How to Assess, Plan, and Level Up Your Program
Let’s be honest—most maintenance teams know they could be doing better. Fewer breakdowns. Better PMs. Less firefighting. More time to plan instead of react.

But I've seen some, so maybe it will make its way to the people who can fix it. I've been working from the Postman Collection for the API documentation I've found a spot where…

Asset Templates that include linked PM Templates
Have you ever added a new asset using an Asset Template, only to realize you still need to manually attach all of the same PM templates every time?

Should Maintenance Technicians Enter Work Requests or should Production (customer)?
We have a constant debate on who should be entering Work Requests. Maintenance, Production team members, or Supervisors.

How are you identifying Work Types?

I'm not in favor of using tags because we already have too many of them and they all wind up in the "description" field. It's not good practice to use one field for many…
