Implementing this custom solution will provide a consolidated workbench which can be used to issue material to a job, receive the finished goods to the warehouse, create the labor entries for the job, backflush material as appropriate and trigger the printing of label(s).  If your finished goods parts are lot tracked they will automatically have the lot ID assigned as the job number; if they are serial tracked serial numbers will be auto-generated, assigned to the job, and associated with the inventory being received.

Standard Epicor® ERP processing provides on a job operation the ability to establish an “Auto Receive” capability.  What this does is when labor is entered on the job operation the receipt transaction is automatically generated.  However, there is no standard capability for the reverse of this process flow where no labor is entered but instead just the job completion quantity is entered.  With this solution you’ll obtain the ability to automatically generate labor entries when completing the Job Receipt to Inventory based upon the labor standards in place for the job operations.

This solution provides you the capability to manage the movement of materials en masse from one location to another.  Flexibility is provided in that you can establish the pool of material to be moved based on:

1. Manual entry of a list of parts
2. Entry of an assembly part number which provides a BOM listing of associated parts
3. The stock-on-hand listing for the source location.

This solution provides a utility which can be used to manipulate the Lot Tracking flag on parts when there is existing inventory.  Standard Epicor® will not permit the modification of the Lot Tracking flag if there is lot-designated inventory in the warehouse.

This solution provides an opportunity to automatically generate a new, unapproved PO for any DMR material dispositioned through inspection processing as “failed”.  The originating order’s information will be used to generate the new PO and the purchasing department has the ability to review and modify as appropriate prior to approval if so desired.

The Scan to Ship extension provides strong mobile scanning functionality for performing shipments in Epicor^® 9 and Epicor^® Vantage^®.  Right from your mobile scanner, users can create new shipment ids, scan all of the parts to be shipped, scan serial numbers and then complete the shipment record.

Standard Epicor® MES is structured to capture job activity in real time, meaning that each employee must clock on and off of jobs in order to record the span of time that they were clocked on.  For environments where this is not realistic, we have developed this customization which allows for the total hours to be recorded and simply prorated across the jobs that were completed based on quantity.

If you handle serialized parts and find that the standard Epicor® ERP methodology for assignment of serial numbers to conformance and non-conformance on End Operation is cumbersome then this solution could be for you.  Utilizing a heavily customized End Labor Activity UI panel you’ll have visibility to all of the serialized units which have not been non-conformed from a previous operation and can easily designate which items do not pass muster.  A reason code and notes can be quickly assigned to each serialized unit.  When completed the standard non-conformance records are created for each serialized unit and the individual logged into the operation will be logged off the job.

The employee skills customization is designed to ensure that employees possess the appropriate skills before they are allowed to sign onto a job within MES.  The customization is comprised of (1) a module to maintain skill definitions, (2) a customization that allows you to specify which operations require specific skills, (3) a customization that allows you to define the skills that each employee possesses along with expiration dates and (4) a customization to the MES Start Production Activity screen that prohibits employees with insufficient skills from clocking onto operations.

This custom screen consolidates onto one UI panel the steps necessary to:

1. Create a job,
2. Assign Serial Numbers to Serial Tracked Job Parts,
3. Issue material to the job (if desired) and
4. Print the job traveler.

This form is to be used to facilitate the updating of the method of manufacturing on a specific job for the selected part and revision number.

This is a web application, developed on top of our Bezlio platform, that allows you to easily attribute labor transactions to jobs within Epicor ERP on any device, from anywhere.  

Jobs are presented in an accordion listing, grouped by the job scheduling priority that already exists in your Epicor ERP. The logged in user will only see the operations associated with their department.

A user can select each of the jobs they have worked on, the total number of hours, and when they submit the hours will be pro-rated to each job according to the percentages input.

Epicor Vantage currently lacks an integrated label printing solution that supports varying formats depending on data, label serialization, and reprint functionality.  For applications where customer or part specific labels are required, manual effort is required to generate the correct labels.

SaberLogic has developed a framework that allows for integrated custom labels to be generated using Crystal Reports files as the design template.  This framework is composed entirely of form customizations and Crystal Reports files, so the software will upgrade with future versions of Epicor® Vantage® just like any other form customization.

Businesses today are connecting like never before.  Omnichannel integration means pushing your products and services to multiple vendors websites.  This type of integration means that suppliers and vendors expect to be able to communicate electronically.  To stay ahead or beat your competition, you need to take the next step, using EDI to connect Epicor to your customer’s systems.

The 'Sales Order/Pack Slip Auto Creation' for Epicor® 9 and Epicor® Vantage® customization allows you to sell and ship the entire contents of an inventory location automatically.  The user will be able to automatically generate Sales Order Lines and Packing Slips based on the inventory of the selected warehouse/bin.
