The Accounts Payable (AP) Module allows companies to manage liabilities for purchased and received goods and services.
The AP module helps you automate payment processing, predict cash requirements, track vendor balances, and gather statistical information. Highlighted Features
Acumatica allows you to enter prepayment requests, issue prepayments to vendors, and apply prepayments to vendor invoices once they are received. You can assign prepayments to the same GL account as the customer AP balance or designate a dedicated prepayment account. The vendor prepayments balance is kept separate from the regular AP balance in order to maintain deposits as an asset account.
Each AP line item can be assigned a deferred expense schedule to you can accurately recognize expenses in the proper reporting period. Acumatica will automatically split the expense between the prepaid expense asset and expense accounts and recognize the expense after running the prepaid expense recognition process.
The AP module automatically calculates Use and VAT Taxes and prepares reports for tax filing and reporting. Each vendor can be assigned a default tax zone which includes the list of the applicable taxes and reporting municipalities for the vendor. This default information can be overridden during the bill entry. Tax calculation options include multiple number of tax items per document line, deduction of tax amount from the price, and tax on tax calculation. Acumatica also supports Withholding tax calculations.
The Accounts Receivable (AR) module allows companies to manage receivables and automate billing operations tasks.
The AR module is used to enter customer invoices, send customer statements, collect and apply payments, verify customer balances, track sales commissions, and deliver customer reports.
Acumatica allows you to automate the creation and delivery of customer invoices and statements. Acumatica can format statements for printing or generate documents in HTML or PDF formats for delivery via email. Copies of all documents are stored with the customer record for future reference and auditing.
An integrated credit card processing facility automates bank card processing while providing flexibility to manually enter charges, void transactions, and issue refunds. Acumatica includes inquiry screens to view credit card transactions and issue warnings about expiring credit cards. You can connect to any bank processing center by using one of the included processing plug-ins or by building a custom plug-in using SDK.
Acumatica provides deferred revenue calculations to support your revenue recognition requirements. While entering invoices, you can assign a deferred revenue code to each line item. The deferred revenue code describes the recognition schedule that is used to post revenue to a designated liability account for tracking deferred revenue. When you run the deferred revenue process, Acumatica will recognize the current part of deferred revenue and generate the appropriate transactions.
The Cash Management (CA) module allows you to manage day to day operations related to cash transactions, cash balances, funds transfer, and bank account reconciliation.
The Cash Management module is integrated with the General Ledger and other financial modules.
The Cash Management module is seamlessly integrated with the General Ledger, Accounts Payable, and Accounts Receivable modules. All cash account transactions entered in these modules will automatically be collected by the Cash Management module for clearing and reconciliation. Transactions entered in the Cash Management module which are linked to a vendor or customer account will create entries in the Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable modules and update the appropriate balances.
Acumatica allows you to transfer funds between bank accounts and track funds that are in-transit. If you transfer between accounts in different currencies, Acumatica will automatically calculate the realized currency gains or losses. You can also record any associated bank expenses directly in transfer form.
Acumatica simplifies the process of reconciling your account balances with bank statements. For each bank account you can enter the statement information provided by the bank and reconcile it with cash account transactions in the system. While performing the reconsideration you can add bank charges, bank interest, and record any omitted cash related transactions directly from the reconciliation screen.
The Currency Management (CM) module provides functionality to support multiple currencies so you can do business internationally and manage international subsidiaries.
Once activated, operations in multiple currencies become available through all the financial modules.
Acumatica automatically calculates realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions entered into the other financial modules. This can include receiving payments from customers, issuing payments to vendors, and transferring funds between accounts.
Acumatica can compute and create adjusting entries for unrealized gains and losses associated with AP liabilities and AR assets recorded in foreign currencies. Before closing the financial period, you can run the unrealized gain and loss calculation process to prepare auto-reversing entries in the GL for all open documents recorded in foreign currencies.
Acumatica provides financial statement translations so you can manage subsidiaries that operate in a foreign currency or submit your financial statements in a foreign currency. You can define the appropriate rules for translating GL account balances and Acumatica will perform the translation of the trial balance into a foreign currency following FASB-52 standards. Translation gains and losses are automatically calculated. You can automate the consolidation of financial statements from multiple subsidiaries by using this functionality in combination with the consolidation features in the GL module.
The Customer Management Suite provides a web-based customer relationship management (CRM) application for managing leads, contacts, opportunities, and business accounts.
Integrated financials and content management foster a team approach and deliver a single consolidated view of all customer contacts. Dashboards and reports provide real-time sales data to accurately manage forecasts, quotas, and results.
Below is a list of features that just scratches the surface of what the Customer Management Suite Provides:
Acumatica provides sales tools which improve information flow, reduce sales cycles, increase close rates, and improve sales efficiency. Sales teams are provided with a complete view of leads, opportunities, and contacts so they are aware of all activities which influence the sales decision. Lead assignment and workflow help manage sales processes to improve efficiency.
Acumatica provides marketing tools to manage leads, improve conversions, measure campaign performance, communicate with contacts, and improve productivity. Marketing teams can capture leads from web forms, purchased lists, advertisements, direct mail, events, and other sources. Captured leads can receive branded email offers. Lead reports help you track the best channels for obtaining qualified leads.
Acumatica provides service management tools to reduce response times, improve customer satisfaction, reduce support costs, and accurately bill transactions. Support personnel can capture inquiries from web forms or enter them manually to create a case. Once created, cases are assigned and escalated according to policies that you set. Integration with financial modules ensures that cases are billed according to client support contracts.
Acumatica provides reporting tools which help improve forecasting, improve information flow, measure conversion rates, and reduce deviation from sales targets. Reports and dashboards can be customized to provide a real-time view of the key performance indicators - executives can view overall trends, marketing can view conversion rates, and salespeople can follow the purchasing patterns of top customers.
The Deferred Revenue Management (DR) module allows you to automate and accurately account for situations where you need to recognize revenue in future time periods. Automate any deferred calculation by assigning a schedule to any transaction line item or inventory component.
Acumatica’s advanced deferred revenue functionality is included at no extra cost with the Acumatica Financial Suite. Integration with other financial modules provides accurate accounting of both deferred revenues and deferred expenses. Highlighted Features
Acumatica automatically calculates deferred revenue accounts according to schedules that you establish. As time passes, deferred revenue is automatically recognized so your financial statements are automatically updated.
Create revenue recognition templates and assign them to line items on revenue transactions. Each template can specify start date, recognition method, percentage to recognize immediately, number of occurrences, and time within the period to generate transactions. Each template can be linked to accounts, subaccounts, and inventory components.
Create deferred schedules based on deferred templates or create custom schedules to model complex requirements. Each schedule can be linked to specific transactions and line numbers on any income document.
Recognize revenue evenly across financial periods, prorate recognition by the number of days, or recognize revenue when payments are received. This level of flexibility allows you comply with all recognition requirements - even in situations where revenue collection is uncertain.
Deferred templates can also be applied to transactions in the Accounts Payable module so you can amortize expenses. Deferred schedules can be linked to Inventory items so Sales Orders and Purchase Orders are processed according to the proper accounting rules.
The Employee Portal (EP) module allows companies to automate the process of entering timesheets, submitting expense claims, and assigning work.
Acumatica makes it easy to involve everybody in your organization because there is no client software to install and access permissions prevent users from viewing other modules or information.
Using only a web browser, employees can submit expense claims with scanned receipts and supporting documents. Once submitted, the expense claim will be assigned for approval according to predefined assignment rules. After the claim has been approved, Acumatica will create a bill in accounts payable to initiate the reimbursement and will generate a customer invoice if expenses were designated as billable to a customer.
While working from anywhere, employees can complete worksheets where they document activities for the day. Timesheets allow workers to specify a customer, a contract, worked hours, and billable hours. Once approved by a supervisor, timesheets can automatically update contract usage and generate a customer bill.
Employees can create tasks associated with documents and assign these tasks to other employees or work groups. The task inquiry screen provides a central location where employees can see tasks that were assigned from any module as well as see tasks that have been escalated for follow up. Acumatica makes it easy for employees to add their task list to a dashboard and drill down inside to view task and document details.
The Fixed Assets (FA) Management module provides complete visibility into your assets and depreciation calculations. Using this module you can add fixed assets from AP purchases, import them from a file, or add them individually. Depreciation schedules are automatically created and detailed reports are available.
The Fixed Assets module is integrated with all other financial modules and sold separately from the rest of the financial suite.
Select from a huge number of predefined depreciation schedules or create your own. Acumatica supports accelerated cost recovery system (ACRS), modified ACRS, straight-line, declining-balance, sum of years’ digits, remaining value, flat rate, units of production, and custom methods. Each depreciation method can include different averaging conventions as well as useful life and recovery periods.
Integration with the Purchase Order Module allows you to easily convert purchases into fixed assets without re-entering data. Eligible purchases are automatically displayed to simplify the conversion process.
Acumatica provides multiple depreciation books, multiple calendars, special depreciation bonuses, and tax benefit recapture capabilities to help you accurately account for complex tax rules. Learn more in the additional features section below.
The General Ledger (GL) module provides a central repository for collecting and analyzing your financial information.
Entries can be made directly into the GL or they can be made from other application modules and then posted to the General Ledger module.
Acumatica allows you to define the structure of your GL accounts and sub accounts. By defining segments, segment lengths, and segment values, you can meet your reporting and analytical requirements. You can easily extend your account structure and change account values after your initial implementation. Changes are immediately reflected across the system.
Acumatica allows you to control which users and roles can view and create transactions for specific GL accounts and sub accounts in order to protect sensitive data and improve the accuracy of data entry. Use the “on-the-fly” entry feature to restrict the list of available sub accounts based on pre-defined combinations of segment values. This simplifies order entry for complex sub account structures.
Acumatica allows you to import financial data from different entities to create consolidated financial reporting and analysis. The import process works even if entities keep their books in different currencies or have different account and sub account structures. Corrections for minority interests, inter-company transfers, and other transactions are preserved inside the consolidating company ledger so they are not affected with subsequent consolidations.
The Inventory Management module provides real-time access to available inventory, inventory in transit, reorder quantities, and inventory costs so you can efficiently manage your distribution process to improve customer satisfaction while maximizing profits.
The inventory module is a key component of the Distribution Suite and is integrated with the Financial Suite as well as the Order Management and Purchasing Management modules.
Acumatica allows you to value your inventory using standard cost, moving average, FIFO, and item specific methods. You can select a different valuation method for each inventory item. A set of report and inquiry screens provides up-to-date valuations and allows you to make direct adjustments to cost and physical inventory count.
Acumatica allows you to manage multiple warehouses with location specific inventory quantities, allocations, and costs. For each warehouse you may specify the access rights to determine the group of people who can access warehouse information and enter inventory transactions. In order to trace inventory valuation in the GL, you can assign multiple warehouses to specific inventory accounts.
Acumatica allows you to track inventory by lot or serial number. Lot and serial numbers can be assigned or entered manually when you receive, issue, or assemble inventory items. Serial numbers can be linked with item specific valuation methods to account for the cost of inventory per lot/serial number. Inquiry screens and reports will provide you an option to find out the lot/serial item history.
Control your manufacturing business from first customer contact all the way through fulfillment and invoicing. Acumatica provides real-time data so you get up-to-the-second status of orders, production, inventory, shipping, invoicing, and support.

It’s a flexible and customizable ERP system that we ever use. Our developers in FiduciaSoft never have a problem with Acumatica. The main problem that you may encounter is a poorly described processes.
Good support and the ability to solve a problems in different ways.
UX and UI could be better for end customers.
Not a user friendly system at all. Our company has had it for 2 months and continue to have bugs to work out. Lost sales due to the troubles. Not flexible. Cost a lot more to customize it. Out of the box, the program is not worth the price.
So far, I can’t say theres anything that I like, because all of the problems we are having. I’m 2 months behind on all my work, because of missing information that did not upload into the system. I have one deposit that is balanced and released and that is for the 1st of October and here we are in December already
The reports have to be customized on everything. They are very messy. I do not like not being able to edit somethings after released, which has caused messy Ledgers
we selected Acumatica because it was the most flexible and robust manufacturing package we demo’d. We chose Cloud9 because they were the most accommodating. Our contacts at Cloud9 were tenacious but never pushy. They scheduled calls and demos around our schedules, even when we made last minute changes. We also wanted a VAR with local offices for implementation and subsequent support. The combination of Acumatica’s functionality combined with Cloud9’s delivery, was a good match for us.
We just purchased the software and are undergoing implementation right now.
It could handle customer discounting for us and it interfaced and had an add-on for Fusion for our POS needs for our stores. That was very important.
I would not recommend it. Compared to a simple program like Quickbooks, it’s nice to have more robust features, but I feel a solution like a Microsoft product is more efficient.
It handled accounting very well, that’s about the best thing I can say. It’s also very nice to have the wonderful reports it can produce.
Has a lot of bugs, we had to hire a consultant to install it. It cost way more to install then they (company we bought it from) said it would. We had to hire a separate company from the one we purchased it from to install it. This company ended up having employee turnover and it was a nightmare. A lot of paying extra for features. All we wanted was a nice program that we could install and not rely on support to fix something routinely.
Acumatica has been a great ERP for our growing company. The core features have met most of our needs. For all additional needs our Acumatica partner has been able to easily help us extend and customize.
The Acumatica platform rivals the power and flexibility of large ERP systems like SAP or Oracle
There is currently not a complete Warehouse Management module.
We just recently purchased Acumatica and will be implementing it later this year. We like that it is distributor focused and a cloud based solution
We are just starting to implement it now. It seems like it has all of the flexibility we need as we are a unique organization. It has a not for profit, charity, insurance company, guarantee company and trust so we needed a lot of flexibility in the way that our transactions were reported.
Acumatica is ERP software that is able to manage all aspects of your business. Designed from the ground up to be truly cloud-based, provides a rich user environment and the speed of client-based solution.
Their unique value is the licensing is not user based which allows unlimited users to gain access to the system. In addition, you have your choice of deployment; SaaS, Private Cloud, or Hosted Cloud.
Acumatica is a younger player in this marketplace. Some areas of the software are lacking. However, they are well funded and are making significant progress. They were at v1.2 when I purchased and we just installed v4.1. The product is getting more and more refined and continues to provide tangible value.
The product is very powerful and does the majority of what you would expect from accounting software. The Project Module canned reports leave much to be desired. Once the product is in place and stabilized, it works really well. Our problems have been with upgrades to the newer version.
Importing feature in Accts Receivable; emailing of invoice feature; running and posting of credit cards from within the AR module.
Upgrades have been horrible. Bank rec is in a weird format (it works, but it takes getting used to); the workflow is not totally intuitive.
Flexible, easy to use, lots of options out of the box
Easy access via internet and use on multiple devices. Lots of options
No personalized comment capability on invoices. No versions on revised PO’s or SO’s. Only provide credit card access via authorize.net would be nice if it connects to any company. Credit card number encoding should show first few digits as well (cant tell type of card)
