This issue has been resolved and is currently undergoing testing. Once it
has passed testing it will be released on a patch as a conversion program
that will restore the UD menu items to your menu.

Sorry, I don't have a call number. I talked last with Dave Weiseth.
Last week I talked with Virginia, and Matt about this. This was before
they realized this was a bug.

What concerns me is that apparently there is NO testing done with Report
Builder reports! How can you miss something like this, unless you do
no testing with the Report Builder reports?

Epicor should take some customer's databases, and run the conversions
with "real world" data instead of test lab data.

I just got off the phone with Tech Support concerning the menu
conversion problem in Vantage 6. As it stands now, Development doesn't
consider this a very big problem, and have no immediate plans to fix it.
If you plan to go to ver 6, then you will have to manually re-enter all
your custom menus.

If you want them to escalate this fix, call them!!!

We are holding off on our conversion till they fix it.

WOW!!!!!

Either there are some extremely huge bugs in 6.0 or the just don't get it.

THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. Remember Epicor has said they do fewer canned
reports because users have their unique needs. Report Builder fills the
needs often, and as a result we all have a ton of report builder reports
built into the menus.

I HOPE EPICOR IS WATCHING THIS LIST BECAUSE THEY MAY JUST HAVE TO WAKE UP.

I just got a reply from our CAM on the menu issue.

Not sure if he would want to be quoted but to paraphrase....

- The menu conversion issue is being worked on right now by development and will be resolved very quickly

- They are monitoring this list ( Hi! ) and feel there is a lot of misinformation going around

My 2 cents at the moment. Chill and give them a few days to fix & respond - I think they are on top of it. A clear statement about RB would help too.
