“I’ve seen some big pluses in finding orders. The staff is right into BisTrack solution now and it’s helping them write orders. It ensures we have the controls in place for special orders. With the BisTrack solution, we’re writing orders up before they arrive as opposed to afterwards as we used to do. It’s tough to turn around and argue about an order if the paperwork relates back to exactly what you submitted. Previously we could not even go back and find the related paperwork.”
“With Eclipse, I now do in five minutes what used to take hours. Updates are automatic and even include the latest tax-exempt information.

As a result, we are always up-to-date with the latest client payment instructions.”

We could never do any of this before. The time savings are amazing.”

Also, Epicor had to work with the tax package due to the complexity in taxes in Uruguay.”
