Much smoother now that it runs Kinetic
You can access it also via Browser
@edge very sneaky, using webpack to bundle it all together.
Besides the homepage, Not much of Kinetic.
What I want to know what are these Astria dll’s (Codename Aurora), couldnt find much about that framework on google, cough @Bart_Elia
Astria = DocStar
Ahh gotcha, thanks =)
we are in the process of creating our own Angular Web interface. Do you know the timing of the availability?
The Infragistics Angular controls are nice looking, what made you go with Kendo? Though both seem to be easy to use in the Angular framework.
Anyone know why the default install path now uses the ICE version instead of ERP version?
C:\Epicor\ERP3.2.300.0Client instead of C:\Epicor\ERP10.2Client
Interesting.
This will be addressed in 300.4 (might make 300.3).
No Way! Is this what I think it is.
(10.1.500.31) Part vs (10.2.300.2) Part
Trying to upgrade customizations and decided to not ignore the overlapping control warnings this go around but no matter what I do they won’t go away. So far 200.14 to 300.2 No BAQ errors, no BPM errors, and very minimal customization errors, just things like this that I force validated on 200. is there a trick to these location conflicts?
I am just really excited about EssentialObjects, because I can already visualize all the things I can make with it.
Epicor 10.2.300 Menu Maintenance let’s you select a URL Form now. This is going to be GREAT for anyone who has external web-apps, QlikSense, QlikView etc, or a full-width dashboard that creates gauges and charts from data retrieved via Epicor REST. The best part it runs EO which is a Chrome based web view, so you can make use of latest web technologies like WebGL, SVG…
Now if Stephen @Edge makes it happen as we use LaunchForm that we can pass in ?params then we can use it also as a pop-up to fetch more data,visuals for a given record.
You can Embed a webpage in the Active homepage and there are checkboxes to send the Context & Token to the website you are embedding, it’ll pass it in as various GET params ?token=… and then you can use that to call Epicor REST.
Coming Soon:
Eventually we will also be able to embed a widget, page into a tab, groupbox.
Exciting Stuff! Same like CEFSharp, just having the ERP Vendor support it and make it more secure, flexible and robust is always a big plus!
I have Upgraded directly from 10.1.500.31 to 10.2.300.2 and some things I wrote down as interesting or to look into, going from 500 to 300 are:
I know some of them may have existed since 600 or 10.2.100
There is alot more than I am listing, I am only listing stuff that I care about.

Overall the Upgrade went without a problem and I used SQL Compare tools, my data was intact.
YES!!!
@jgiese.wci - Maybe increase the spacing between the label and Freight Charges combobox? I had to pop in a help ticket (Case CS0001143349) for similar issues on an 10.2.200.x, and requested an enhancement to reduce the padding and not warn for overlaps. Dan D. noted issues like this for enhancement in future releases…
The Problem Case Number is PRB0206232 and has the following Description:
SUGGESTED ENHANCEMENT #1: Improve Verify algorithm in Customization Maintenance to eliminate false “Visible Area” Location Warnings by ignoring padding and only looking at the control itself (i.e. label or text box) and not the handle squares around it.
That was my first guess, added 8px between them to start then 12px and still wasn’t resolving. At that point I determined I’m wasting more space than actually fixing anything LOL
Some Feature Highlights @Drozy2017 finds note-worthy; good share!:
Financial people have feelings too 
Don’t listen to @hkeric.wci financial dev team, you did a great job and keep up the great work!
Died Laughing 
A few clarifications on the @hkeric.wci list:
FIPS / ITAR - you do not need to purchase a new license but you do need to get a license re-issued. Turns out our license files themselves are not FIPS compliant so we had to modify them so they can work on a FIPS restricted system. Existing license will continue to work just fine if you are not FIPS.
Data Masking of Sensitive data - this actually applies everywhere and not just in BAQs. The data is masked / unmasked at the Server boundary so all processing and DB storage is done with the Actual value but it can be masked for viewing. This is essentially Column Level Security and in addition to the existing options of “Full / Read-Only / None” you can now specify that a column value is “Masked” - User will see existing data with a mask applied but can enter new values or change existing (of course they have to know the complete value of the field) and “Masked Read-Only”. This is a nice extension to security that allows you to decide what data is sensitive and who should be able to see it and change it. The masking only applies to “Text” data.
and @aidacra nice of you to worry about the Fin folks but the posting didn’t include a bunch of numbers or columnar data so they will never read it…
And now Atlassian is going head-to-head with Service-Now:
I talk about this problem and it Solve in 10.2.300.13
