Most wanted features/solutions

Chris - Can the forum software host an indefinitely running poll - I’m thinking a list where forum users can click on a wish item and increment it with a “Me Too”! Or overcomplicate it with a weighted avg with say their top 5’s…

Epicor should have this… See this link for a functional example. Feature Requests | ClickUp

Be able to use a SQL stored procedure as a data source in dashboards.

IMHO, I would prefer to be able to create views or stored procedures WITHIN the Entity Framework. Using Stored Procedures completely bypasses the Epicor Security model. It also appears that adding views manually has broken the upgrade process for several users on this list.

I thought this was a non issue in 10 since it now has sub-queries with CTEs?

2 posts were split to a new topic: Allow the creation of Temp Tables in a BAQ

Ability to duplicate (clone) a subquery in BAQ designer and import a subquery from another query.

Add counters to log how often certain menu items are accessed.

Prevents users from saying Hey! That’s very important!!! while having only run it once (or never).

Remembering an old home grown system we used to have, it had a report counter built in. Would also be nice to know when it was run last and by whom.

Menu maintenance
Having an easier way to modify the customization associated with the menu Whenever I need to make a change in Part form, it is 13 menus I need to access, double it if the change is needed as well for the Part tracker !

So some way to access one of the menu of Part, and there would be the list (menu item, custo associated and a select checkbox) of the other menus where part is used and we could select a button to apply to all ! and unselect their respective checkbox where no need to apply the change…

unless it already exists in a more recent version than current one? 10.0

BAQs I can help you with – I have that running on my system already. I think I actually took an example posted on this very forum if you search back for it….

It’s not for Menus or Reports – I think one of the VARs has already done something for Menu Usage that Epicor could purchase and plonk into the product or rewrite as their own.

Just a snippet of the ones that have run today – the number of times isn’t just today, that’s since I turned on the logging (seemingly 10th Feb 2017 by looking at the data).

You can do this using DMT no problems.

Kind of irrelevant as far as actual Epicor features go, but I’d really be interested into more training than just the ICE Tools and Customization user guides.

I’m not exactly from a programming background, but I have done a small amount of Vb for an internally developed application. We have not completed our implementation, but as far as customizations go it seems like the sky is the limit, and I’m not sure where to start.

SSRS execution log view will give you the runs of that report. By default SSRS keeps this for the past 60 days.

Epicor Telemetry? :wink:

Not everyone has DMT, it’s not a standard package.

With regards to DMT. It should be standard AND there should be a library of standard extractions for common platforms…Basically a business within itself. So sorry if I’m standing on anyone’s toes here, but thinking of ways which make it easier to adopt a new ERP.

On the where used screen you can check out multiple parts at once.

Make it possible to change the UOM Class and UOM on parts that have some transactions.
Change parts to have a Partnum in the background like custNum and VendNum to allow fixing part’s that have some issues.
