Epicor Eagle software now includes the powerful new Epicor Mobile Manager™ application, which enables authorized users to view sales, inventory, pricing and customer information on a dynamic basis via a mobile device.

Other new features of the Compass software include a dashboard reporting tool that provides sales and margin data on all types of business promotions. Additional Compass enhancements are faster page loads and queries, delivery of scheduled tasks via an FTP protocol, and the availability of additional fields, including cash balancing dimensions and measures, terms codes and discount thresholds.

The new Epicor Eagle release also includes the cloud-based Epicor AConneX® CL online parts trading solution. AConneX CL is a sustainable, scalable and extendable solution with improved responsiveness to electronic orders and inquiries flowing between businesses and offers the most reliable connection in the automotive aftermarket.
