We are months away from go live, and I’m looking into ways to possibly speed up some aspects of order entry via API. For context, we built our own REST service that sits in front of the Epicor REST service so that we could handle security, the bearer token, data sources, simplifying inputs/outputs,…

For starters make sure you set OrderHed.ReadyToCalc to false first, then set it back to true after your entire process is complete.

Oh yeah, that’s definitely off. I can’t imagine what it would do if it were on, nothing good!

You are not wrong. Epicor does get slower when the volume increases. [image] Can the system just not handle large volume? Kinetic ERP I feel like the more I use it the less confidence I have on Epicor ability to handle large volume. We have an order with 5,00…

We have several members in this forum that fill gigantic orders for large box stores that have locations nationwide (maybe worldwide) that need to be shipped according to how they want them shipped, invoiced how they want them invoiced, etc. and we are all looking for a quicker way to figure this ou…

Third party contractors I guess you could call them. They’re great guys but they have a lot of administrative overhead, If you want something done they’ll put it in a sprint and you’ll hear back in a few months kind of thing.

nope we are full cloud kinetic from the get-go!

We would have to see your API, to see if we can identify some improvements. Like are you calling GetByID in between every call, perhaps you don’t have to. Perhaps some things can use UpdateExt instead of MasterUpdate. The only way I was ever able to make something extremely fast was by reversing Ep…

So, its a lot trickier to do it this way, but you can just use the Update functions and mass modify multiple lines at once without using the helper functions. This is the fastest method, but you have to have all your info right. Sales kits also add a significant penalty to speed. If you are doing i…
