Hello,
As we are bringing more companies online in our system, and setting up global parts across them, I came to a realization that it might be nice to filter out which parts are available globally by child company.
We don’t necessarily want all 10k+ parts to show up in every company as an option to link, and don’t want to link the desired ones all by hand or all 10k in bulk. Is there any feature existing currently that lets us specify which child companies or external companies a part, customer, or supplier can be sent down to?
Our other idea was to either BPM the child company “GetList” or “GetRows” method calls on the linked part / supplier / customer business objects, or if that means a bunch of records sit idle on the IntQueIn table then we may want to try to BPM it before it even leaves on the IntQueOut table.
Anyone have any ideas or solutions they’ve used in the past? Right now, my leading idea is a filtering bpm, a checkbox to override the filter bpm to “share” across all global units, and a baq combo for picking a default external company for when the “share” checkbox isn’t checked (so we can still get some parts out to more than 1 company if needed, but not all 10k+).
Thank you!
Edit - I will put this in as an Epicor Idea if no one has any built in solution they know of. I wasn’t able to find one searching around.
