Service Connect is part of the advanced tool set, but deserves special attention because it is extremely powerful. It can be configured to 'pole' outside information, pulling in information from external sources, and posting information from Epicor to others. It can be a data conversion tool, the basis for an EDI system, or even an interface to post metrics on a website.

     Common areas for Service Connect use are when you need to pull information from a non-Epicor application into Epicor, without completing a full data conversion beforehand. Service Connect allows you to have full business integration into your Epicor solution with other people who are not directly on your system.

      Smaller organizations may not want to pay for the developer kit, nor have programming staff needed to work with this solution. We can be your IT staff to devlop Sevice Connect routines, and then deploy them on your system. All Epicor 8+ systems have 'run time' versions available that can run programs we write with Service Connect.
