Epicor Eclipse is being used across the entire business. We use it for Purchasing, Sales, Inventory Control and Accounting functions. It addresses the need to keep accurate track of inventory and all other aspects of our business. Since the software was designed for the area of business we operate in, it is a great tool.

Epicor Eclipse is currently the ERP solution in use by the sales, purchasing, and accounting departments. It is presently the means used to keep track of customer orders, accounts receivable, purchasing, inventory management, and accounts payable. Speaking candidly, it does not address as many problems as it creates. The software wasn't designed for our industry yet we use it daily anyway.

We use Epicor's Eclipse software for inventory control, pricing, point of sale, invoicing, receivables and payables, and general ledger. Our lighting and Gear departments uses their Job Management module to bid and track larger jobs. We use their PDW (product data warehouse) module to aid our sales team to increase our catalog of products we can offer. Tracking product as it enters our location to printing shipping labels, manifesting and proof of delivery signatures to the invoices greatly aid in our collections from our credit department.

Eclipse is used as the primary software of our company. We run sales, purchasing, operations and finance on it. Generally it is one of the better ERP systems available in the electrical distribution space. It has an inherent understanding of how products, projects, orders, and warehouses are setup for our industry. It's greatest strength is probably the ways in which it has setup the product/price line/pricing data to meet our industry's unique needs. There are also some strong drawbacks to using the system, which we try to overcome with either 3rd party add on products that integrate with Eclipse, or custom programming we do in house.

We use both the E-term and Solar clients throughout the company. Solar is primarily used at the corporate level in purchasing and fringe departments. Most all of our sales people use the E-term client daily. We have one salesperson who uses Solar. This ERP is utilized across the company with everything we manage. I manage all of our pricing with support from our product data administrator. We believe that performance is key to looking at how our pricing impacts our clients. I use various performance reports to help create pricing strategy within the company.

Epicor's Eclipse is the business system for Revere Electric Supply. It is used for the entire business cycle: quote management and order entry, purchasing, receiving, managing inventory, delivery logistics, invoicing, AR, AP, finance, commissions, and reporting. Eclipse ties into several 3rd party products for additional features, such as Avalara for tax calculations, Vantiv for secure credit card processing, Phocas for business intelligence and dashboards, and Innovo for remote data collection and delivery logistics. There are only a few areas of the distribution business that Epicor Eclipse does not have a solution, but for those areas there seem to be several choices of 3rd party vendors and good integration.

This company is a wholesale distributor of HVAC products, 70% of which we manufacture. We use Eclipse for AP, AR, GL, Sales, and Purchasing, as well as maintaining a default inventory for all 6 branches. We even use the 'Suggested PO' features for prioritizing our manufacturing processes by the department. The 'Suggested Transfer' feature is used to prioritize loads for the 12+ semi trucks we send out each week from the mother branch IN Wichita, Kansas to our branches in KC, Denver, Omaha, Lincoln and Des Moines.

We use another product for 'Labor and Materials' when costing our manufactured product.

Eclipse is being used by our entire organization. It has solved the issue of having multiple different WMS at different locations and allowed us to use the same WMS for our accounting software for the most part.

Epicor Eclipse is used by our whole organization. We use it for point of sales transactions and ordering of materials for stock as well as the accounting and business management tools. We use the tracker system to stay organized and to communicate about our transactions. It allows for the efficient purchasing and transferring of materials between our 10 branches.
