We just upgraded from Vantage 8 to Epicor 10. Everything went fairly smoothly. After doing the first month end and reviewing the financials there is a large % difference in the applied overhead. I’m trying to figure out why. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone have any ideas where to start to look to see if something has changed? If not, how is the best way to verify that the information is correct? Are there any company settings that perhaps didn’t migrate correctly that I can check?
@Cathy_Henricks`One major difference between Vantage/Earlier E9 version and E9.05.700 above/Epicor 10 is labour cost. Previously it used to pick from Resource/Resource Group but now it’s picked from Employee labour rate which is going to affect both labour and applied overhead.
Applied overhead is derived from the resource or resource group used in the labor activity.
The question becomes has the burden rate changed between Vantage and E10? Was there any resource changes in the MOM or Jobs that would move that money?
Another question is the GL Control. Is there a duplication of accounts somewhere in the control that points to the Applied overhead?
