Core Features

Audit Trails and Change Logs

Track every action taken in the system—who made it, when, and what changed. This helps meet compliance requirements, supports internal reviews, and makes it easier to catch errors or suspicious activity early. With complete traceability, your team can resolve issues faster and stay audit-ready without manual tracking.

Business Process Management (BPM) with Automation

Set up custom workflows that enforce your business rules—automate approvals, enforce required steps, and ensure secure sign-offs. BPM reduces human error and keeps your processes consistent, even as teams grow or shift. When compliance steps are baked into daily work, you save time and avoid costly mistakes.

User and Role-Based Security Controls

Grant access based on what users need—nothing more. Control visibility and actions across forms, fields, and reports. This limits exposure of sensitive data and helps prevent both internal and external threats. It also simplifies user management and supports compliance with privacy and data protection standards.

Integrated Risk Management

Use real-time data to identify risks in your operations, finances, or systems. Embedded tools give you visibility into trends, exceptions, and issues before they escalate. With alerts and tracking built in, teams can act faster, reduce disruptions, and make better decisions to protect the business.

Electronic Reporting

Stay current with changing tax rules and digital filing mandates. Easily configure reports and e-invoices to meet local and international requirements. Reduce manual work, avoid penalties, and respond quickly when regulations shift—without waiting on custom development or outside help.

Financial Governance Tools

Speed up planning, budgeting, and reporting with tools like Financial Report Writer, Financial Planner, and Spreadsheet Server. Gain visibility across your financials, cut down on errors, and streamline audits. These tools help teams close books faster and improve control over financial results. Our quality solutions help with ISO, automotive (TS), aerospace (AS), FDA (cGMP, FDA 21 CFR Part 11), and more.

Global Trade Compliance

Support cross-border operations with tools for product classification, landed cost tracking, shipping documentation, and regulatory filings. Manage RoHS, WEEE, FDA, ISO, and more—all in one place. Stay compliant in every region you operate while avoiding delays, fines, or lost business.

Data Protection and Identity Management

Secure your systems with authentication tools like Epicor Identity Provider and Microsoft Azure Active Directory. Support single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and strong password policies. Protect sensitive data, simplify access for users, and align with IT security standards.

Sustainability and Environmental Management

Gather carbon (Co2e) data throughout the manufacturing process with our patent pending Carbon Cost Rollup. Monitor energy use, carbon footprint, and resource efficiency across your operations. Tools like Energy Monitoring and Grow analytics help you spot waste, track trends, and make informed decisions. Meet sustainability goals, reduce costs, and report on environmental impact with data you already collect.

Industry-Specific Compliance Support

Built-in tools support the strict quality, traceability, and validation demands of regulated industries like aerospace, defense, automotive, and life sciences. Stay compliant with standards like ISO, AS, TS, and FDA without adding complexity. Keep audits on track and maintain customer trust with systems designed for your industry.
