Video Overview

⭐ Description

This transcript showcases the power of Epicor Data Discovery (EDD)—a dynamic, real-time data visualization solution designed to help ERP users transform operational data into clear, actionable insights. Using animated, interactive tiles, EDD allows teams to monitor key warehouse metrics, shipping performance, receiving history, and inventory movement as they unfold. Users can instantly expand any tile, drill into detailed data, and identify trends such as on-time receiving, workflow bottlenecks, or underutilized packing lines.

Epicor Data Discovery goes far beyond standard bar and line charts, enabling users to build visually rich dashboards, warehouse heat maps, and time-lapse animations using ERP data, Business Activity Queries (BAQs), or data warehouse content. With simple drag-and-drop functionality, users can create custom visualizations, animate historical data, and highlight patterns in inventory levels, order activity, customer behavior, and more.

Because EDD integrates seamlessly with the Epicor ERP platform, all visualizations honor system-wide security settings, ensuring users see only the data they are authorized to access. Dashboards can be saved privately or shared publicly across the organization, putting real-time intelligence directly on users’ homepages to support daily decision-making.

The transcript also highlights differences between Epicor Data Discovery and Epicor Data Analytics (EDA). While EDD focuses on real-time, operational insights for immediate decision-making, EDA is a cloud-based analytics solution designed for long-term KPIs, trend analysis, and blending demographic or external data with historical ERP information.

Finally, the session explores cutting-edge innovation with Microsoft HoloLens—showing how Epicor’s partnership with Microsoft enables augmented reality use cases, such as scanning QR codes, visualizing 3D product configurations, navigating warehouse data, and accessing ERP details through immersive mixed reality.

Epicor Data Discovery empowers teams to uncover operational issues, optimize warehouse efficiency, and make faster, better decisions using intuitive, real-time visualizations.
