Epicor has set out the contents of Propello 2026.3, the third release this year for its cloud retail management system, and says it will roll out in the coming weeks. The eight features split between back-office accuracy and store-floor service. Read against the previous releases, they show Propello being wired more tightly into Epicor’s finance and supply chain products, with a migration tool added for retailers moving onto the platform.
Back-Office Features Build on the Financials and EDI Integrations
Epicor has been adding finance and EDI links to Propello since mid-2025. Propello 2025.2 introduced Epicor EDI for purchase orders and invoice receiving, plus a general ledger and accounts payable integration with Epicor Financials. Propello 2026.1 added an AP Assist integration and third-party AP and GL export. The 2026.3 release takes both threads further.
The bank reconciliation integration connects Propello to Epicor Financials workflows so accounting teams can reconcile and close with less manual matching. The EDI 810 enhancement surfaces shipment-level packing references during invoice review, so staff can match multi-shipment supplier invoices against what arrived. A new All UPC Report exports UPC, manufacturer, and alternate part number data for audits and integrations.
Two further items widen the product’s reach.
Softgoods attributes and style management groups apparel and other variant-rich stock by style, size, and color, extending Propello beyond hardware and building supply retailers, for whom Epicor maintains an Ace Hardware-specific edition. The import of open AR transactions, including invoices, credits, and balances, is a migration tool; Epicor says it preserves customer account continuity and reduces disruption during a move to Propello.
Store-Floor Tools Move Order Handling Onto Mobile Devices
Mobile+ POS now supports orders and special orders, so associates can create, edit, recall, and complete them from a mobile device anywhere in the store.
A deposit activity viewer brings deposits across orders, special orders, and layaways into one screen with transaction-level notes, which Epicor positions as a faster way to resolve customer queries and reconcile outstanding liabilities.
Cash Rounding Follows the End of Penny Production
The US Mint struck its final circulating penny in November 2025. The coin remains legal tender, but with no new supply, retailers have begun rounding cash transactions to the nearest five cents, and states have moved to regulate how.
Propello 2026.3 is the first release to address this directly. Epicor’s response is a set of automated cash-rounding rules it says support “evolving payment and penny phase-out requirements.” Configurable rules fit a situation in which the required method differs by state and may change again if the federal bill passes, but Epicor has not said whether rules can be set per store or per state, which multi-state retailers will need to confirm.
What This Means for ERP Insiders
Propello is now an Epicor suite decision. Three consecutive releases have deepened the Financials and EDI ties. ERP teams selecting a retail POS should evaluate Propello alongside the finance stack it feeds, since that is where the new value sits.
The AR import changes cutover planning. Carrying open invoices and credits into the new system removes one reason to delay a migration. ERP teams should confirm the import’s scope with Epicor before setting a cutover date.
Set rounding rules before the first cash count. Rounding affects receipts, drawer reconciliation, and reported revenue. ERP teams with multi-state estates should map which locations can round and configure Propello to match, so finance is not reconciling inconsistent store behavior afterwards.
