yES ITS MAJOR @#$#@@#@#@%$$%%_IT THANK GOD when we purchased vantage we
didn't get that module. We use Trutedlink from Harbinger (now known as
sterling) anyway EDI for us will dissapear as most of our custmers are
creating global extranets. Our last and only customer using EDI is CAT and
from what i hear they plan to go extranet in about 1 1-1/2 years. T o get
back to the point EPICOR you should be ashamed. Don't just make a half-#@#
module, just so it looks good in the corporate brochure. Either make
something that works or don't make it at all.

We are in the same boat! We bought the EDI module, and due to
numerous bugs (which they WON'T fix) and inflexibility, we can only use
EDI for incomming transactions (but only after the incomming file is
parsed with my own program to do part & customer verification so we
don't loose any orders).
For outgoing EDI, we have had to write a report, send to a file, and
have a second program read that report and create the EDI Document for
our trading partner.
In version 4 (patch 8.10), they fixed most of the bugs (the
inflexibility is still there), except the one we really needed fixed (if
the incomming part is in Part Master & stocked, then uncheck "make" and
default plant & warehouse). I told them about this back in April, and
they haven't done ANYTHING!!
The thing that is so frustrating is that we had to pay them to create a
custom program to fix their buggy EDI programs!
And now every patch we load, we have to delete all the EDI programs and
replace them with our ver 3 custom programming. (which we had to pay
them again to convert to ver 4)!
If only Vantages' competition were to find out how unresponsive Epicor
is to their customers......
Very Frustrating!!!
