Hello!
We went live in Kinetic (from E9 previously) in January and decided at that time to implement Consolidated purchasing for our multi-company environment. This has turned out to be a massive headache, and we have submitted over a dozen tickets to Epicor, resulting in the need for development support.
We hope to find someone in the Epicor universe who successfully uses Consolidated Purchasing to see how you are using it and if what we are trying to do is just out of the norm or if we should return to individual POs in each company. Everything from New PO suggestions to Change PO suggestions and updates, up to the AP process, seems to be a bit of a mess. We have not found any one resource we can walk through this with and get a straight answer. There is also very little by way of documentation for us to refer back to.
Please tell me there is someone out there who does this well? And can help us find the source of our pain? Bueller?
