You can design your own Welcome page for your iNet site. Even if your store doesn't have a web site, you can still provide Epicor Software Corporation™ with a complete HTML document you created on your own that you want to use as a welcome page. For Order Pro and Accounts On-Line, your welcome page will display when a user first signs on, as well as each time he/she clicks the "Home" link after that. Similarly, for Catalog and e-Store, your welcome page will display when a user first accesses your site, as well as each time he/she clicks the "About Us" tab after that.
You now have the option of defining the background and font colors of the iNet menu bar. By default, the background color is dark blue and the font color is white. To change them, simply enter the desired colors (in hexidecimal format) in the two new iNet options "iNet Menu Bar Background Color" and "iNet Menu Bar Font Color" in Options Configuration. See Eagle for Windows online help for more information.
You can now specify your own signoff page that your customers will be taken to when they sign off your iNet site. Simply enter the desired signoff page (a valid web page address that is 32 characters or less) in the new iNet option "Signoff page for Order Pro and Accounts On-Line" in Options Configuration. The signoff page you enter must be hosted by your own web site.
You can now specify employees who are allowed to change the account number after signing on to Order Pro and Accounts On-Line. First, the flag "iNet Employee Order Pro on System" must be activated by the Epicor Licensing department or the Eagle Advice Line. Then you can set the "iNet allow account selection" option for each employee who is allowed to switch the customer account number. Immediately after signing on, employees with this option will be given the choice of either using their assigned customer account or entering another one. The employee must finish any in-process orders or quotes before switching accounts.
E-Statements is a purchase option that enables you to E-mail Accounts Receivable statements to selected customers. The statement is E-mailed as an HTML file attachment, or as embedded HTML. If you have an iNet Accounts On-Line website, your customers can also view their archived statements online. You must have a SCO Eagle Server, iNet Connect, and an in-store Internet connection to use E-Statements. For more information about purchasing E-Statements, contact Epicor Direct at 800-538-8597, or send an email to inet@activant.com. Note that the E-Statements feature is not available for the ISC operating system.
E-Invoices is a purchase option that enables you to E-mail invoices in a Text and/or PDF format to selected customers. If you have an iNet Accounts On-Line website, your customers can view their archived invoices online at your store’s iNet site. You must have a SCO Eagle Server, iNet Connect, and an in-store internet connection to use E-Invoices. You must also have Document Management software to send invoices in PDF format, which look exactly like the in-store invoice, including the customer’s signature if you have Signature Capture software and a signature capture device. For more information about purchasing E-Invoices, contact Epicor Direct at 800-538-8597, or send an email to inet@activant.com. Note that the E-Invoices feature is not available for the ISC operating system.
