Chicago White Sox Epicor Financial Management Case Study
Chicago White Sox reduced annual budgeting from 3-4 weeks to 3-4 days and MLB reporting from days to under an hour using Epicor for Hospitality and Entertainment.
This case study details how the Chicago White Sox replaced an outdated financial system with Epicor to meet stringent MLB reporting requirements and support zero-based budgeting. The implementation enabled direct reporting from the general ledger, eliminated manual data re-entry, and integrated with the ticketing system for faster payment processing. Other Chicago sports organizations later adopted the same solution.
