Introduction
In a fast-paced financial environment, decision-making depends on access to real-time, reliable data. While Epicor ERP provides a powerful suite of tools, many organizations struggle to make full use of the system’s native reporting features—especially when it comes to dashboards. This is where Epicforce Tech makes the difference.
With deep expertise in Epicor ERP customization and financial reporting, Epicforce Tech helps finance teams design, implement, and optimize dashboards that turn static data into actionable intelligence. Whether it’s understanding cash flow, forecasting revenue, or tracking cost variance, Epicforce Tech ensures your finance teams extract the most meaningful real-time insights from your Epicor Dashboards.
The Finance Team’s Need for Real-Time Data
Finance professionals require:
- Real-time visibility into accounts receivable/payable
- Live updates on budgeting and forecasts
- Immediate awareness of cash flow trends
- Accurate financial ratios and performance metrics
- Automated alerts for threshold breaches
Epicor Dashboards can support these needs—but only with the right configuration, data models, and user-specific customization, which is where Epicforce Tech’s consultants come in.
Common Challenges Without Expert Help
Many businesses face the following hurdles when trying to build Epicor Dashboards for financial purposes:
- Poor dashboard design: Generic layouts that don’t reflect financial workflows
- Lack of automation: Manual refreshes or outdated data syncing

- Insufficient training: Teams don’t understand how to interpret visualizations
- Limited drill-down capabilities: Difficulty tracing metrics back to transactions
Epicforce Tech addresses these pain points through targeted services that enhance the usability, reliability, and performance of financial dashboards.
