Since our first use of Epicor, we had to modify it in order to add for packages of products.
we added :
Nbr of product per package,
weight of package, (totals the products, palette, carton etc)
Volume of package
We introduced this functionality within the Revisions of the part, as we can sell the same product 100/pak or 200/pak it would then be a different revision of the part.
We sell packages (we has as well modified the reports to show that as well ) and our shippers want to know about volumes needed to ship and weights etcā¦ so that is why such info was importantā¦
I have read about 10.2 having a package feature ā¦ canāt wait to see what is all aboutā¦
Otherwise I was wandering how other users were dealing with this missing functionality ? I am sure we are not the only ones shipping packagesā¦ !
thanks for your input.

The knowledge of the revisions in stock.
We produce parts with revision, we sell parts with revisions, but in inventory, we only place parts
How do we know from which revision? is the current stock in inventory? If the revision changes, in the system we cannot know how much from the previous revision are in stock?
Of course we can look on our package where the revision from the production is on the labelā¦(.where this process is manual and takes time.) ā¦ but not via inventory reports. The only way would be to use lot#, which is overkill in my viewā¦
Or via scanning the packages on shippingā¦ but this would require more customization ā¦

Be able to check out more than one part at a time to Engineering Workbench.

Thought you could already do that as long as it was a diff part/rev? No?
He means not having to go through the checkout screen one at a time. You can have more than one checked out, but you you have to go through the checkout screen one at a time.
And yes +1000000000 for that one.

A post was split to a new topic: Add ability to create User Profile Templates based on Department or Position
Chris - Can the forum software host an indefinitely running poll - Iām thinking a list where forum users can click on a wish item and increment it with a āMe Tooā! Or overcomplicate it with a weighted avg with say their top 5āsā¦

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

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

BAQs I can help you with ā 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 itā¦.
Itās not for Menus or Reports ā 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 ā the number of times isnāt just today, thatās since I turned on the logging (seemingly 10th Feb 2017 by looking at the data).
