Got some general questions regarding upgrading items and fleet stuff

Thanks to google, youtube and this forum I've been able to figure out how to upgrade items, how to properly grind for dilithium, etc. I accepted a fleet invite that seems to be a very small fleet of players that like me just 'needed to be in a fleet' so we can mine more dilithium in the dilithium fleet holdings place.
But as I explored the different fleet bases I discovered I can do much more than grind for more dilithium but also there are vendors where it looks like I can purchase weapons, shields, etc for my ship and even ground equipment that I can't find anywhere else(not even the exchange) for either energy credits or dilithium.
...But when I got enough dilithium to get a beam weapon for my ship and tried to buy it from one of these fleet vendors I got the message "You don't have permission to buy fleet provision items".
So how do I get this permission? What does that even mean?
Also have an additional question regarding upgrading items. I upgraded one beam weapon to XV and the quality is rare. Out of curiosity, how do I upgrade it to epoch quality? Do I just keep applying upgrades as if it will go to XVI? (I've been told XV is the highest items go).

Once the upgrade bar fills, you can apply the Upgrade and if the quality goes up, the quality bar will reset but if the quality stays the same, the current upgrade probability will stay and you can apply more upgrades to keep increasing the chance of an upgrade. This is sure to be a drain on your Dilithium, though...
The best option is to watch out for Red Alert events as the reward for these is an Ultimate Upgrade which will take any item and upgrade it fully to Mk XV and Epic Quality. No more need to upgrade that item!
oh wow thanks for telling me about the red alert event! I'll keep an eye out for that. oh and about the fleet question, I'll have to find a more active fleet because my fleet is so inactive there's not even any project for me to donate to, so my fleet marks just keep piling up lol. I'll go to the appropriate place on this forum to look for a better fleet.

You need five progress out of the seven days to get the Upgrade and Spec Point.
