Epicor LumberTrack 2019 Introduces New Features to Drive Business Optimization

Epicor Software Corporation, a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth, today announced the new version of Epicor^® LumberTrack™. The updates to LumberTrack software provide customers improved analytics functions that simplify both forecasting as well as the introduction of the Purchasing application programming interface (API). 

The new Forecasting Cube lets customers load, manage and compare multiple forecast quantity models, in near real-time, for up to four areas of your business.

It allows for simple maintenance of the forecasts, and the ability to forecast at any level of granularity, including location, species, grade, dryness, or length, among many other attributes, to give a concise picture of your inventory.
