Acumatica Editions
Acumatica Cloud ERP breaks down into five editions to make a more tailored and industry specific package for each customer that uses the product. The editions are as follows:
• Manufacturing Edition
• Retail-Commerce Edition
• Distribution Edition
• Construction Edition
• General Business Edition
The Manufacturing Edition is a multi-site cloud manufacturing control and planning system. It breaks down into two suites: the Advanced Finance Suite and the Distribution Suite. To further break down the edition, Acumatica has tailored the product to customers with Advanced Financials and the Standard Manufacturing Editions. Each of these tailored editions makes the product a better fit for each customer that is using Acumatica.
Acumatica’s Retail-Commerce Edition allows you to manage omnichannel orders, the picking-packing-shipping process, customer support, inventory, returns, and accounting. This edition has the Advanced Financials and Distribution Suite.
The Distribution Edition allows customers to manage inventory, streamline sales orders, enhance purchasing, calculate true costs, and automate cross-company transactions. The Distribution Edition is a great solution for wholesale distributors. It has two suites: the Finance Suite and the Distribution Suite.
The Acumatica Construction Edition has streamlined project management, powerful financials and reporting, integrated payroll, inventory, service management, and comprehensive job cost accounting. This edition has the Advanced Financial Suite and the Distribution Suite created for Acumatica.
The last edition Acumatica has is the General Business Edition. It helps customers cohesively use Financials, CRM, Project Accounting, and Reporting all in one place. It allows a business to focus on growing while using one ERP system. This is true for all the editions; it makes accounting that much easier.

Acumatica Summit 2022 Overview
We are finally back from the annual Acumatica Summit. Over 1,800 people were gathered at the Wynn Las Vegas to see how the world’s fastest growing cloud ERP system continues its advancement.
With Day 1 came a lot of emphasis on customers, growth, and agility. The keynote session with Acumatica CEO Jon Roskill focused on showing how Acumatica has an ecosystem mentality for its growth. This ecosystem includes developers, Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), Valued Acumatica Resellers (VARs), OEMs, and of course the customers and community. Also, it has three focuses: Integration, Extensibility, and Vertical Application.
There were also three announcements made:
– Acumatica is going after a new vertical with the implementation of a Property Management Module.
– Acumatica Document Cloud will make the integration with Adobe that much smoother.
– Autodesk integration with model viewer embedded into Acumatica.
Acumatica is focused on aligning with customer needs, the democratization of tech, innovation, and growth. Jon Roskill left us with a final statement, “Thank you for trusting Acumatica.”
On day 2 we were formally introduced to Acumatica 2022 R1. Presenters started strong talking about community focus and emphasizing once more about how the customers are what makes this product what it is. They listen to what they want, and they work on building solutions that will work for the customers.
2022 R1 focuses on 3 main ideas: Working smarter on the go, unlocking global markets, and going broader and deeper with industry-leading capabilities. Some of the integrations in R1 include UiPath Connectors, where customers can easily automate repetitive tasks. Another integration is an Amazon Connector integration for those who sell on Amazon.
Acumatica focuses on enhancing the user experience and making sure they are always staying current in a fast-paced technology world. With updates to its mobile app, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, Acumatica is proving its dedication to its customers.

Top 5 Blogs: 2021
As the year draws to a close we take a look back at some of the blogs we posted. Here are our Top 5 Blog posts this year!
Acumatica 2021 R2 New Feature Review: Business Events and Notification Templates for CRM
New CRM Business Events have been delivered with Acumatica 2021 R2 that can alert users to changes in leads, contacts, accounts, or cases. These pre-defined templates in business events and notification templates mean you would not need to have a user with customizer rights to create them from scratch.
Now a System Administrator can simply activate the business event by checking the “Active” check box on the Business Events (SM302050) form. Email notifications have also been created and the related emails could include one record or multiple reports.
Some notifications will be sent on record change and some will be sent by a schedule. A system administrator will still need to create the schedule to turn on those Business Events.
Notifications can also be sent to a mobile device assuming the appropriate license is activated in Acumatica and the user is accepting Push Notifications.

Acumatica vs Dynamics SL: Mobile App
I can remember getting my first cellular phone. I had just gotten a job as a consultant for a Dynamics SL (Solomon at that time) reseller and I was told I needed one so I could be reached by clients. The phone was small and clunky, but I could make phone calls and I soon realized it had another amazing feature – texting! Phones have changed a lot since then, but sadly I still can’t do much more on my phone with SL than I could on my first cell phone.
