Advanced Data Exports

Beyond the two required reports in the Epicor Eagle Integration, Eagle can export your operational history — sales, receiving, purchase orders, promotions, vendor terms. These exports power the AI assistant’s Advanced Mode: deep analysis over months of real sales and movement data, across every store.

They are optional. Core FastQuery — inventory, tasks, everyday chat — works fully without them.

The setup is the same as the required reports, minus the schedules — you already made the nightly schedule, and all of these reuse it. For each query:

  1. Download the query file from the table above to the computer running Compass.
  2. Import it: Tools > Profile Wizard > Import Profile, scope System, named exactly after the file — FastQuery POS, FastQuery ITR, and so on.
  3. Create a scheduled task for it, following the same nine wizard steps as the required reports: same Export Data action, same CSV File format, same SFTP delivery. Only two things differ — type this query’s file name from the table (for example pos), and pick your nightly schedule.

The file name is how FastQuery recognizes each report. On the wizard’s file-name screen, type it exactly as the table shows: pos for sales, itr for inventory movements, po-history for closed purchase orders, po for open ones, promos, vendor. A different name won’t load into the right place.

Date windows are flexible. For the history exports (POS, ITR, PO History), a file can cover any date range you like — FastQuery replaces each calendar day it contains as a whole, so overlapping deliveries are always safe and never double-count. We recommend a trailing 7-day window on the nightly schedule: any outage shorter than a week then heals itself on the next delivery, with no files to re-send.

Don’t change the columns. Each export is checked against its expected layout on arrival. A file with added, removed, or renamed columns is rejected (and flagged on your Integrations page) rather than loaded wrong. If you need a layout change, talk to us first.

The nightly schedule keeps the data current going forward — but the analysis is only as good as the history behind it. When you first set up, send the past 2 years of each history export in one go. Two years is enough for year-over-year comparisons and typically reaches past your last full physical inventory count.

We provide ready-made backfill versions of the history queries — same reports, with the date range preset to the past 730 days:

QueryQuery fileFile name
FastQuery POS 730 daysFastQuery-POS-730-days.xgppos
FastQuery ITR 730 daysFastQuery-ITR-730-days.xgpitr
FastQuery PO History 730 daysFastQuery-PO-History-730-days.xgppo-history

Set each one up like any other query — import the file, then create a scheduled task with the same nine wizard steps, using the file name from this table. The only differences: on the last screen, click Execute Now instead of waiting for the schedule, and once the file has gone through, delete the task (right-click it > Delete) — a backfill only needs to run once.

Very large history files can be too big for SFTP — if a file won’t go through, contact us and we’ll load it for you directly.

Once the exports are flowing, Advanced Mode becomes available in chat for users with the datasets:query permission — see Roles and Permissions. Advanced Mode conversations draw on your organization’s monthly advanced allowance, described in Included Usage and Pricing.

You can watch the exports arrive on the Integrations → Epicor Eagle page, and FastQuery alerts you if a nightly export stops flowing.
