PLATEFORME IA et plateforme

Give Every Team Faster Access to Data and AI That Takes Action

Put practical AI to work inside ERP workflows while strengthening the governed data foundation behind it. Across the platform, new capabilities make business data faster to access, easier to analyze and report on, and safer to extend to approved AI tools — all under the access rights your team already relies on. The result is broader reach for AI and ERP data, with control built in.
  • Use AI Assistant to answer complex business questions and support ongoing decision-making
  • Build AI agents that use broader ERP context to take defined actions on eligible records.
  • Connect external AI tools to approved, read-only ERP data through MCP servers.
  • Scale AI use with clear oversight of sensitive data, access, and consumption.
  • Use faster, more flexible Generic Inquiries across reporting, integrations, and AI tools.
  • Also in this release: AI-unit consumption threshold warnings, experimental AI-powered expense receipt recognition, and Generic Inquiry AI-description processing status.
Acumatica Cloud ERP AI Assistant — answering a strategic finance question about top revenue customers trending toward late payment, with source Generic Inquiry details

Ask Deeper Questions and Turn AI Assistant Insights into Reusable Dashboard Widgets

Ask complex business questions that would otherwise require multiple reports and manual analysis. Expanded financial inquiries allow AI Assistant to analyze document history and answer questions about prior periods and specific dates, helping finance teams understand how balances changed, identify trends, and investigate the transactions behind the numbers. Receive answers as text, charts, or tables, and generate and refine reusable dashboard widgets. Review the source Generic Inquiry and query details behind each widget, then add selected widgets to an editable dashboard so teams can continue using them after the conversation ends.

Activate AI Agents to Work Together Across Business Processes

Give your teams AI agents that are simple to create and powerful when connected. Agents can start automatically through Business Events, Import/Export Scenarios, or workflows your teams already use. They draw on relevant ERP data to inform their reasoning, take precise action, and pass work to the next agent or automated step. Automate work such as adjusting prices to meet target margins, applying discounts, qualifying new leads, or assessing credit risk.

  • Create and save agents with simple instructions
  • Trigger agents automatically when defined business conditions occur
  • Connect multiple agents and existing automation to complete multi-step processes
  • Use multiple Generic Inquiries as data source to perform informed actions across multiple areas of the ERP
  • Apply existing access rights and optional sensitive-data masking
Masquer les données sensibles pour une IA sécurisée
Identifier les problèmes de données grâce à la détection des anomalies basée sur l'IA

Connect Approved ERP Data to External AI Tools with MCP Servers

Give AI agents and external applications standardized read-only access to selected Acumatica ERP data. Administrators configure Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and expose published Generic Inquiries as callable tools, so employees can ask assistants like Claude or ChatGPT questions and get answers drawn straight from Acumatica. Every request runs under the user's existing access rights and is logged, keeping data governed as AI use expands.

Strengthen AI Automation Oversight with Data Masking and Token Usage

Mask selected fields from the current record before AI Automation sends information to an LLM, then restore the original values inside Acumatica. Expanded processing logs and provider-reported token counts give administrators greater visibility into the data exchanged, and usage across each automation.

Load Generic Inquiries Faster and Create Grouped Table Views

With Generic Inquiry Optimization, you can store the results of large, complex, or frequently accessed Generic Inquiries in a dedicated table instead of recalculating them with every request. Refresh results on a schedule or on demand, then reuse them across dashboards, OData, MCP, and pivot views. Grouped Table views organize inquiry results into expandable hierarchies with subtotals, totals, and calculated values—making complex information easier to analyze without rebuilding the inquiry in Report Designer.

Expand Self-Service Reporting with DAC-Level Data Security

Give business users freedom to create their own Generic Inquiries while keeping restricted data protected. When enabled, DAC-level security uses existing screen-based permissions to control which Data Access Classes (DACs)—the underlying data objects used by Acumatica screens—are available in the Generic Inquiry form and DAC Schema Browser. Users can create inquiries while accessing only authorized data, and administrators gain greater visibility into how access is determined across data sources, screens, and roles.

Acumatica Cloud ERP Modern UI — the redesigned interface that becomes the default as Classic UI is retired

Prepare for Classic UI Retirement as the Modern UI Becomes the Default

Introduced over the past several releases, the Modern UI is now the default experience, while Classic-only screens remain accessible in 2026 R2 with advance warnings. Organizations can use this release to identify and migrate remaining Classic forms, dashboards, pivot tables, and customizations before Classic-only functionality is retired in the next 2027 R1 release.

ACCOUNTING, PAYMENTS, AND CRM ACCOUNTING, PAYMENTS, AND CRM

Accelerate Payments, Strengthen Financial Control, and Sell Smarter

Acumatica 2026 R2 connects more payment, financial, and customer workflows in one system. Expanded embedded payment options, stronger financial and vendor controls, and faster payroll processing help finance teams work more efficiently. CRM users gain timely information to prioritize customer communications, recommend the right products, and sell with greater confidence.
  • Expand embedded vendor payments with faster, more flexible payment options and greater payment-status visibility.
  • Improve financial accuracy and control across tax filing, bank-transaction matching, and vendor approvals.
  • Sell and quote smarter inside CRM with related-item recommendations, real-time inventory availability, and greater visibility into the items ultimately sold.
  • Prioritize customer communications with AI-assisted insights and more flexible marketing preference management.
  • Calculate paychecks and release large payroll batches up to 63% faster.

Automate Vendor Payments with AvidXchange

Prepare and send vendor payments through AvidXchange directly from Acumatica. AP Payments powered by AvidXchange delivers payments to U.S. vendors by virtual card, ACH, or check based on each vendor's payment preferences, eliminating the need to maintain vendor bank details in Acumatica. Track payment progress, synchronize status updates individually or in bulk, download proof of payment, and request that eligible payments be stopped—all while keeping payment activity connected to your accounts payable records.

Acumatica Cloud ERP accounts payable automation — vendor payments through AvidXchange with virtual card disbursement and proof of payment
Acumatica Cloud ERP vendor payment automation — faster ACH payments to vendors through BILL with Pay Faster enabled

Pay Vendors Faster — At Home and Abroad — Through BILL

BILL's Pay Faster service now supports ACH payments in addition to checks, so U.S. vendor payments can reach their destination sooner when timing matters. For vendors outside the United States, you can now prepare and process payments on bills in foreign currencies — not just USD — with exchange-rate and disbursement details shown right in the payment.

  • Speed up ACH payments to U.S. vendors with BILL's Pay Faster service
  • Pay international vendors in their own currency, including foreign-currency bills paid in the same currency
  • Review exchange-rate and disbursement details directly in the payment record

Process Payroll Up to 63% Faster

Complete payroll processing sooner with faster paycheck calculations and batch releases. Performance improvements reduce processing time by up to 63%, with organizations processing hundreds of paychecks seeing the greatest benefits. Payroll teams can reduce wait times and complete large payroll runs faster without changing their existing workflows or compromising calculation accuracy.

Acumatica Cloud ERP vendor approval workflow — new vendor held in Pending Approval with configurable approvals and change control

Strengthen Vendor Controls with Configurable Approvals

Configure an approval workflow for vendor creation and updates so new or changed vendor records stay unavailable for purchasing or AP documents until the required approvals are complete — keeping unverified vendor data out of your financial processes.

Speed Bank Reconciliation with Intelligent Bank Matching

Every time you manually match a bank transaction to a document and confirm it, the system remembers the relationship between the cash account, the payee value from your bank, and the vendor or customer you matched it to. The next time that payee appears, the matching document gets a stronger match automatically — so the same manual work doesn't repeat itself month after month.

Acumatica Cloud ERP 1099 e-filing — Create E-File generates IRIS-formatted CSV files for the IRS FIRE to IRIS transition, supporting 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC

File 1099s Through the IRS's New IRIS System

Prepare for the IRS transition from Filing Information Returns Electronically (FIRE) to the Information Returns Intake System (IRIS) for the 2027 filing season. Acumatica's Create E-File process now generates CSV files formatted for IRIS instead of FIRE, for both 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC, with new vendor and company fields required for IRIS filing.

Meet Visa's Commercial Enhanced Data Program Requirements

Enhancements to Level 3 card payment processing help you transmit more accurate payment data, preserve fee discounts, and handle more real-world scenarios — partial applications, discounts, negative lines, currency conversion, and pay-by-line processing — with clear, actionable errors when data is incomplete.

Acumatica Cloud ERP customer refunds — create refunds in the current open financial period without reopening a closed period

Create Refunds Without Reopening Closed Financial Periods

Process customer refunds even when the original payment was released in an inactive, locked, or closed financial period. Acumatica automatically assigns the current business date and corresponding open financial period to the refund, eliminating the need to reopen the original period while maintaining established period controls.

Put Payment Processing Status to Work Everywhere

Monitor and act on credit card and ACH payment statuses across Acumatica. Because processing status is now stored with each payment, teams can use it to filter Generic Inquiries and reports or trigger business events when a payment reaches a specific status. New expiration warnings also flag pre-authorized payments that need attention, helping teams identify exceptions earlier, automate follow-up, and keep payments moving.

Acumatica Cloud ERP expense automation — automatically create expense receipts from corporate card refunds via bank feeds

Automate Expense Receipts for Corporate Card Refunds

When a corporate card transaction comes through as a refund or return, Acumatica can now create the corresponding expense receipt automatically, the same way it already handles regular charges — eliminating a manual step that used to precede every refund claim.

Create Prepayment Invoices for Sales Orders with Existing Payments

Create a prepayment invoice for a sales order that already has a payment or prepayment applied — one imported from an external system — and automatically link that payment to the new invoice. This works for a single sales order or a full batch.

Acumatica Cloud ERP sales order prepayments — create prepayment invoices for sales orders with existing payments and automatically link the payment
Acumatica Cloud ERP CRM AI — sentiment analysis and response priority on opportunities with AI-generated summaries, next steps, and suggested replies

Prioritize Urgent Customer Conversations with AI-Assisted Analysis

Spend less time reviewing emails and activities to decide where to respond first. AI highlights opportunities and cases that need attention, helping sales and service teams prioritize their work and respond more quickly. Open the Activity Stream to review customer sentiment, a summary of recent communications, suggested next steps, and a suggested reply—all in one place.

Find More Sales Opportunities with Related-Item Suggestions

Offer customers relevant substitutes, higher-value upsells, complementary cross-sells, and other related products or services earlier in the sales process. Related-item suggestions, including ML-generated cross-sell and upsell recommendations, appear in opportunities, sales quotes, and project quotes, where representatives can review price, quantity, and availability and add items without leaving the workflow. When a related item is substituted or added, the Related Item History inquiry shows which document made the final change—so you can trace the sale back to its origin.

Acumatica Cloud ERP CRM with real-time inventory — On Hand, Available, and Available for Shipping quantities shown on opportunities and sales quotes

Check Real-Time Inventory Availability Without Leaving the Deal

Answer customer availability questions faster with real-time inventory information displayed directly in opportunities and sales quotes, just like sales orders. View On Hand, Available, and Available for Shipping quantities for stock items in the table footer, reducing manual checks and helping you make confident pricing and commitment decisions without interrupting the sales workflow.

Respect Marketing Preferences for Mass Email Automatically

Organize mass emails into marketing categories, and CRM will automatically manage recipient preferences for each one. Link categories to SendGrid unsubscribe groups so Acumatica can reflect subscription changes in CRM records and apply preferences automatically during mass email processing. Recipients can unsubscribe from one category while continuing to receive others — helping teams send more relevant communications, reduce manual preference management, and support email compliance.

CONSTRUCTION, PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, AND PROJECTS CONSTRUCTION, PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, AND PROJECTS

Manage Complex Projects with More Structure and Less Manual Work

Whether you're managing multi-phase construction contracts or billing professional services engagements, these enhancements give you more structure around changes, budgets, and materials — with the new Construction Exchange to keep subcontractors connected.
  • Link projects in a parent-child hierarchy for consolidated billing and reporting across phases or sites.
  • Give vendors and subcontractors self-service access to subcontracts, POs, and compliance documents in the Construction Exchange portal.
  • Track completed quantities and billed vs. pending amounts throughout progress billing and change orders.
  • Forecast project costs by calendar month and automatically copy budget line details from source documents.
  • Reclassify project transactions and analyze a broader range of billed and unbilled project revenue.
Manage Complex Multi-Phase Contracts with Parent-Child Projects

Manage Complex Work with Parent-Child Projects

Link related projects, phases, work scopes, buildings, sites, or internal cost centers, in a parent-child hierarchy. Bill the customer for all child projects' work through the parent, or consolidate child data in the parent for reporting while billing each child's customer separately. Either way, roll up selected transactions to the parent without creating duplicates.

Give Vendors Self-Service Access with the New Construction Exchange

The Construction Exchange gives vendors and subcontractors controlled self-service access to project-related information. They can review subcontracts and purchase orders, submitting documents, and monitoring processing status, without a phone call or email to your project team.

Manage Change Requests and Change Orders with More Precision

Manage Change Requests and Change Orders with More Precision

A cluster of enhancements gives you tighter control over two-tier change management from estimate to final billing. Choose whether change request pricing comes from unit cost and markups or from sales prices and price books. Identify affected purchase orders and subcontracts earlier by attaching existing commitments directly to a change request. See a complete tax breakdown for a project change before the change order is even created. And track exactly how much of a change order has been billed versus what's still pending, even when the same revenue budget line spans multiple change orders.

Bill on Completed Quantities, Track Costs Separately

Record completed quantities for revenue budget lines in progress worksheets, and let the system calculate a recommended completion percentage from either the quantity of work completed for the customer or the quantities used to perform the work. Review revenue and cost progress side by side on the Project Progress Report.

Bill on Completed Quantities, Track Costs Separately
Forecast Costs the Way Construction Spending Actually Moves

Forecast Costs the Way Construction Spending Actually Moves

Construction spending rarely follows a straight line. Spread projected costs across your project timeline using a front-loaded, back-loaded, bell, or linear S-curve, then compare baseline, projected, and actual costs month by month, giving project managers and foremen a clearer view of what's coming.

Move Project Materials to Where the Work Is

Create material transfers straight from your project materials list to move goods to the right warehouse or location before work begins. Project, task, cost code, and inventory source carry forward automatically, and you can process transfers through your standard warehouse workflow.

Move Project Materials to Where the Work Is
Keep the Project Branch Aligned Everywhere

Keep the Project Branch Aligned Everywhere

Submit expenses for a project in another branch, but make sure the cost lands on the project's branch while the liability stays with the employee's branch. Keep project and GL transactions aligned to the correct project branch, and choose whether the system defaults the branch automatically, warns on a mismatch, or blocks the release. Time cards, time activities, and equipment time cards can now record project costs under the project's branch while keeping liabilities under the right employee or user branch

Reclassify Project Transactions Without Manual Rework

Move costs to the right project or task without reversing and recreating transactions by hand. Find eligible project transactions on the new Reclassify Project Transactions form and update their project, task, or accounting details in a few clicks.

Reclassify Project Transactions Without Manual Rework
Analyze Revenue Across More Project Billing Types

Analyze Revenue Across More Project Billing Types

Get a fuller picture of unbilled and recognized project revenue. The Unbilled Project Revenue Aging and Project Revenue Analysis inquiries now include project tasks billed by a Progress Billing step, not just Time and Material, so you can analyze revenue across your whole project portfolio in one place.

Stop Retyping Budget Line Details

Configure the system to automatically copy the description, unit of measure, and unit rate to project budget lines from the change orders, change requests, or project transactions that created them — cutting out a repetitive manual step every time a budget line is created.

Mobile Time Card Enhancements

Mobile Time Card Enhancements

Enter time and material entries for any period, not just the default week, supporting forward-dated absences or skipping weeks. The mobile UI now displays running totals per day and per task.

DISTRIBUTION ET COMMERCE DISTRIBUTION ET COMMERCE

Accélérez votre croissance et gagnez en efficacité grâce à des fonctionnalités innovantes destinées aux distributeurs, aux commerçants de détail et aux entreprises axées sur la gestion des stocks

Sharpen everyday distribution workflows from order promise through pick, pack, and ship. Customer service and sales teams can commit to realistic dates during order entry, warehouses match picking to how their inventory actually moves, and shipping teams get clearer carrier decisions, plus integrations that stay current with updated ShipEngine and EasyPost apps. Commerce connectors, AP matching, and traceability improvements round out a release focused on accuracy and simplified business processes.
  • Commit to accurate delivery dates with real-time Available-to-Promise (ATP).
  • Pick faster with flexible quantity entry and unit-of-measure based picking with support for zones and picking strategies.
  • Manage B2B company accounts, hierarchies, and pricing context from Acumatica inside BigCommerce.
  • Ship with fewer errors across EasyPost and ShipEngine.
  • Process Shopify returns and exchanges as connected ERP transactions with accurate inventory and financial impact.
  • Ship with more control and less rework — least-cost rate shopping with delivery-date fit, address review before labels print, validated low-cost carriers through EasyPost, and carrier integrations that stay current as requirements change.
Available-to-Promise ATP for Acumatica Cloud ERP Software

Promise Ship Dates You Can Keep with ATP

See projected supply and demand on the order line, identify the earliest date the full quantity can ship, and apply that date to the order during customer conversations. Item classes determine which availability calculation rule applies. That rule defines the supply and demand documents that drive Available-to-Promise (ATP) results, while order types drive safety stock treatment.

Pick to Your Warehouse, not to a Template

Choose unit-by-unit scanning, required manual entry, or a smart default that prepopulates the requested quantity, while pallet, case, and each quantities allocate automatically across bulk, case-pick, and fast-pick zones. Barcode, lot, serial, expiration, and short-pick validations stay fully in force.

BigCommerce B2B Connector for Acumatica Cloud ERP

One Source of Truth for B2B Accounts with BigCommerce

Export companies from Acumatica and keep addresses, users, hierarchies, customer groups, payment terms, and payment options aligned in both directions. Parent company and price class preprocessing ensure synchronized accounts land with the right relationships and commercial terms.

Exchanges that Reconcile Themselves in Shopify

Shopify exchanges arrive as structured transactions with the original order reference intact, and returned and replacement items tracked separately, including pricing, discount, tax, and net balance impact. Full and partial exchanges are both supported, with restock and fulfillment updates flowing back to Shopify automatically.

Shop for Shipping Carrier Freight Rates from Your ERP Software

Every Shipment Out the Door with Fewer Surprises

Rate shop with lowest-cost services first and clear signals for which ones meet the requested delivery date, leverage EasyPost to review suggested address corrections before labels are printed to validate low-cost carriers. Carrier requests wait for ERP validations to pass, and administrator-maintained service mappings keep apps current as requirements change.

FABRICATION FABRICATION

Build Manufacturing Precision from the Shop Floor to the Schedule Board

This release gives manufacturers sharper control over how work is scheduled, reported, and provisioned. From a smarter capacity-aware scheduling engine to an expanded Shop Floor Kiosk and more precise inventory replenishment, these enhancements help you plan with confidence and keep production data accurate from the shop floor up.
  • Combine finite and infinite capacity planning within a single production order with the new Advanced Planning and Scheduling engine
  • Issue materials, capture lot/serial attributes, and correct production data without leaving the Shop Floor Kiosk
  • Provision project materials with production orders and track manufacturing progress from the project
  • Replenish inventory using stocking methods that match how you actually restock — to a maximum level or a fixed quantity
  • Get more answers about material readiness and production status from AI Assistant with expanded manufacturing generic inquiries
Advanced Planning and Scheduling APS Finite Production Scheduling Software

Schedule Around Real Capacity, not Assumptions

Schedule production orders forward or backward using finite or infinite logic, planning against the production calendars, shifts, breaks, holidays, and efficiencies your shop actually runs on. Updated operation dates, sequencing, and material impacts surface as you schedule, so you can see when a job will truly finish, commit to dates you can hold, keep constrained work centers from getting buried, and push more work through the same capacity. Rerun the schedule as priorities shift, spend less time rebuilding it in spreadsheets, and have more confidence when someone asks where their order stands.

Make the Shop Floor Kiosk the Only Screen Operators Need

Issue materials straight to the operation you're working on, add the substitute or consumable item the job actually called for, and make corrections on the spot. Enter lot and serial attributes as you report production, and search by attribute value so the right lot or serial number gets consumed the first time. Everything the job requires gets captured where the work happens — traceability that holds up when quality or an auditor comes asking, and supervisors spending less time cleaning up yesterday's entries.

Modern Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for Acumatica Cloud ERP
AI Use Cases for Manufacturing ERP Software

Get Manufacturing Answers from AI Assistant

Ask AI Assistant plain questions about production and get manufacturing-specific answers back, without assembling them from separate reports and inquiries first. Four new generic inquiries give the assistant the data foundation to cover the operational questions that come up daily on the floor and in production management.

  • Schedule performance (late / on time / early)— Shows whether active production is trending late, on time, or early, so schedulers can spot exceptions sooner and speak accurately to production commitments when priorities shift.
  • Material needs by work center — Shows which components need to be staged to which work center and by when, so materials handlers and operations teams can coordinate staging against the actual schedule instead of guessing.
  • Production order risk — Surfaces the released orders most likely to finish late or run over cost, giving managers a way to focus attention before a problem grows.
  • Production orders by build capability — Organizes production order context by build capability, giving AI Assistant the manufacturing context it needs to answer precisely in environments where build type changes how work executes.
  • Bring Project Material Requirements into Production Planning

    Mark project material lines for production automatically or by hand, then launch production order creation right from the material list when supply won't cover the need. Planners running the Create Production Order process see project demand alongside everything else, so bulk order generation covers project work too. Item, quantity, required date, project, task, and cost code all carry forward, and every order stays linked to the material line that drove it — so you can trace how project requirements are fulfilled, and catch missing BOMs or routings before they stall the job.

    Tie Project Material Demand to Production and Inventory Planning
    Safety Stock and Reorder Points for MRP and DRP

    Match Your Inventory Plan to How Each Item Actually Moves

    Safety stock and reorder point solve different problems, and MRP and DRP now plan them that way. Set a safety stock buffer to absorb demand spikes and late deliveries, keeping the cushion out of your available-to-plan calculation. Or set a reorder point that triggers replenishment at the trigger level and orders up to a maximum — sizing each order to the gap rather than a fixed quantity, which suits items with variable demand or long lead times. The right method per item means fewer stockouts on volatile parts and less capital tied up in the rest.
