My employee #Insights2022 invite finally arrived, so I am officially registered and going. (I bet you all were worried)… 
Looking forward to seeing all of you at Insights!

I was on the edge of my seat waiting.
Is JitterBit presenting their “Epicor to Salesforce” integration? I think they are making corrections to their prepackaged solution based on the 50+ hours of support sessions we had to get it working.

I’ve been extremely busy with work. Beyond Busy. I was hoping to show you the magic of BufferCopy and how it has solved 1000 headaches. 
Maybe next year. I am coming as a spectator… I could always help flip slides via mouse-click for anyone.

I would like to know about the buffercopy too
Matt,
I am wishing a lot better days ahead for you and the salesforce integration.
I would like to hear more about the process and some takeaways you had.
Will you be at insights?
Hey Utah

Hi Guys - i will be there from the 21st until the 27th.
Hello all
Not sure if this is the place for this, but I will be at Insights from the 21st to the 26th.
I will be seeing the new top gun movie on the 27th.

I attended all of these panel presenter sessions - seems like a few times someone mentioned there would be something posted on EpiUsers.Help with downloads (e.g. sample code, maybe the Zebra Printer Status dashboard @Chris_Conn showed off ) Has that been posted somewhere on here and I’m failing to search for it?
I felt like most of the customer-led sessions should have been in larger rooms this year, @Banderson. Anyone else get that sense? They all seemed packed, sweaty, and uncomfortable while a few of the more official Epicor ones I went to had huge, mostly empty rooms.

Don’t they always put us in that one down there? I swear we were in the same one 2 years ago and it’s ALWAYS packed!
I filled out the survey stating the sessions were standing room only, and we need larger rooms next year. Not sure if the app/web is still active, but fill out your surveys if you didn’t!

Sorry, I think my first question got buried in the room size discussion. Is anything being posted to these forums that was discussed as possibly being posted during the breakout sessions?
I did find this post by reading the note @josecgomez had in one of his slides:
Class to Kinetic Upgrade Helper - Kinetic 202X - Epicor User Help Forum (epiusers.help)

Give me a bit and I’ll share the project (with the disclaimer I am not a webdev)
