Conversion Programs to run regularly to maintain Epicor?

We are on 8.03.408A and run 6430 and 9527 daily.

We run 6430 weeky and 5100 monthly.
 
I believe the reason why Epicor has never offered a way to schedule these is because they're designed to run with no other users on the system. We ensure no one is logged in and disable all logins when we run these routines.

On Epicor 9.05 (not sure when this table was added) we run SQL query to look at all the available conversions:
SELECT * FROM Epicor905..CnvProgs

We run conversion 5090 and 5140 regularly (Mon/Wed/Fri) as instructed by Epicor Consultant. They are Verify/Repair Operation Hours/Costs and Job Assembly Cost Roll-Up respectively.  I think this is necessary because we have a service connect that creates jobs, and it is missing a step that causes the jobs to come out with incorrect costing.  Maybe this is something we should fix, but running the conversions regularly is what we do now. (If only there was some way to schedule these - now that would be a trick!)

We also have to run 10250 (Unlock Transactions with no Entry in Review Journal) occasionally when something (typically AR) fails to post and gets stuck in limbo.  Epicor Support told us about this one.

I'm under the impression that many Epicor admins run certain Conversion Programs regularly to maintain the consistency of the data in Epicor and to prevent errors occurring, such as '6430 (Recalculate Part Onhand/Allocation Summaries)' etc. I'm interested to know what, if any, Conversion Programs you run regularly as part of your preventative maintenance routine and why you run them ?.

With enough replies to this post we'll end up with a good list that other admins can refer to.

Thanks.

I uploaded a spreadsheet that I got some time ago of all of the routines as of 904A.

Great idea for a list, I would add 8920,8930 for fixing labor issues. Too bad the program which lists the conversion programs is not searchable, sortable, etc…

Subject: [Vantage] Conversion Programs to run regularly to maintain Epicor ?

 

 

I'm under the impression that many Epicor admins run certain Conversion Programs regularly to maintain the consistency of the data in Epicor and to prevent errors occurring, such as '6430 (Recalculate Part Onhand/Allocation Summaries)' etc. I'm interested to know what, if any, Conversion Programs you run regularly as part of your preventative maintenance routine and why you run them ?.

With enough replies to this post we'll end up with a good list that other admins can refer to.

Thanks.

Actually at insights at a few years ago I shared a trick to search this list as follows:

Browse over to your epicor install as such

\\SERVER\Epicor\Epicor905\Server\cv


Within this folder you will find a file called cnvprogs.dcd 

Open this file with notepad, search to your hearts content.


Hope this helps


Thanks!

thanks jose

We run the 6430 weekly.  However, we have had new errors introduced, if not run in particular way :(

 

We need to run it when there are NO intransit transfer orders and when there are no job materials getting issued to jobs.  We have transfer orders running on a weekly basis, so the night before the transfers are shipped from all plants, and in the evening when nobody is expected to be issuing matl to jobs, we run it.  We have not gotten a way to run it automatically yet.

On Epicor 9.05 (not sure when this table was added) we run SQL query to look at all the available conversions:
SELECT * FROM Epicor905..CnvProgs

We run conversion 5090 and 5140 regularly (Mon/Wed/Fri) as instructed by Epicor Consultant. They are Verify/Repair Operation Hours/Costs and Job Assembly Cost Roll-Up respectively.  I think this is necessary because we have a service connect that creates jobs, and it is missing a step that causes the jobs to come out with incorrect costing.  Maybe this is something we should fix, but running the conversions regularly is what we do now. (If only there was some way to schedule these - now that would be a trick!)

We also have to run 10250 (Unlock Transactions with no Entry in Review Journal) occasionally when something (typically AR) fails to post and gets stuck in limbo.  Epicor Support told us about this one.

We run 6430 weeky and 5100 monthly.
 
I believe the reason why Epicor has never offered a way to schedule these is because they're designed to run with no other users on the system. We ensure no one is logged in and disable all logins when we run these routines.
