Microsoft Dynamics SL 2018 CU 10
The new release of Dynamics SL 2018 is now available. CU 10 comes with just a few updates and bug fixes, which we have now seen as a pattern. With Dynamics SL being sunsetted, there has been less to add to the product. Our prediction is there won’t be many more updates to come for this product and we are starting to look at the end of an era. Nevertheless, here are some of the changes they announced.
AcuLoan Integration with Acumatica
AcuLoan for Acumatica refers to a loan management solution specifically designed to integrate with the Acumatica enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Acumatica is a cloud-based ERP platform that provides businesses with comprehensive financial, operational, and customer management capabilities.

Life Cycle of a Loan in AcuLoan
The all-in-one loan management tool built for Acumatica has several components that make it a great fit for many different types of loans for companies in various industries. AcuLoan is built to serve both debtor and creditor types of loans making it a versatile loan management tool seamlessly integrated into Acumatica.
The life cycle of a loan is completely managed within the AcuLoan system. The loan is first entered into the system as a loan account with the “applied for” status. Users then leverage the Acumatica CRM system to assess the application and any documentation associated with the loan. Loans are then approved within the system and users make the payment within AcuLoan. All contact information for the loan account is held in the system for an easy user experience.
The all-in-one tool that Acumatica has for managing loan accounts makes it easy to see all information related to the loan and see how this information ties to accounting details. There is no longer a need for both a loan management program and an accounting program.
If you think your company could benefit from a single system to manage your loan accounts, contact Polaris Business Solutions for a demonstration of AcuLoan. Please email info@polaris-business.com.
Creating a Report in AcuLoan
Like Acumatica, AcuLoan has several built-in reporting features that come out of the box. Reporting is essential to the management of loans and many of the reports in AcuLoan show vital information for keeping loans up-to-date, payments processed, and ensuring loans are transacting in the proper way. Some of the reports that are included with AcuLoan are the loan summary, loan schedule, and transaction history report. Above is a full view of the inquiries and reports available in the AcuLoan workspace.
These reports are run in the same way Acumatica reports are run. For example, below you read the steps on how a user can create a report in AcuLoan.
- Users will select the report or inquiry they choose to run. In this example, we will take a look at the Age Analysis Inquiry.
2. Once this loads on the screen, users will select the parameters for running the report.
3. Some of these selections in the header could include branch, loan type, payment frequency, dates, report group or sub group.
4. After selecting the necessary parameters, users will run the report.
5. This will populate on the screen information for users to analyze.
Information in AcuLoan is updated in the same way Acumatica is updated. Real-time data in taken into account when reports are processed throughout the system. Reports and inquiries throughout both Acumatica and AcuLoan can be exported to Excel for further manipulation. Running reports in AcuLoan is a simple, single-system process. Users of AcuLoan access reports from one screen without having to leave Acumatica, this is a great benefit of the AcuLoan integration with Acumatica.
If you think your loan management process could benefit from an integrated reporting process, please reach out to Polaris Business Solutions. We would love to show you a full demo of AcuLoan and all of its great features; aculoan@polaris-business.com.
