The Epicor FP&A Advantage
End-to-End Solution | High Volume Support | Real-Time Collaboration | Financial Process Automation.
Epicor FP&A refers to a family of products that offer a unified platform for financial reporting, budgeting and planning, KPI tracking, and financial consolidation. This means you only need one solution—Epicor FP&A—for all your reporting, budgeting, and consolidation needs.
Epicor FP&A aims to streamline and automate time-consuming, error-prone tasks of the finance team so you can focus on high value-yielding responsibilities. Epicor FP&A uses a pragmatic and intelligent workflow that makes reporting and budgeting quicker and more efficient.
If you are wondering why you need an add-on product like Epicor FP&A for your reporting needs when you have just invested in an ERP system, this is because an ERP system provides limited operational reports. In addition, financial statements are not included in its out-of-box offerings.
This is where Epicor FP&A comes in handy—Epicor FP&A supports the creation of P&L, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. It can build other custom, on-demand reports through easy-to-use templates or the drag-and-drop report wizard. It will even allow you to build more complex reports through its built-in business rules automation engine.
Yes, it will. Most legacy solutions are on end-of-life-cycle mode, which means they will only receive bug fixes with no further product enhancements planned.
Financial Statements and Reports offer users of legacy solutions an easy and cost-effective migration path for a smooth transition to a well-supported reporting solution.
Epicor FP&A has native integration with Epicor Kinetic, Epicor ERP, Epicor iScala, Epicor Enterprise, Epicor Prophet 21 and Epicor Financials. Epicor FP&A also integrates with non-Epicor ERP systems whether on-premises or cloud-based.
