Acumatica does 2 major releases each year:
R1 in the first half of the year and R2 in the second half of the year.

My Notes from the Acumatica 2023 R2 Launch Event
I attended the main keynote, then the breakout for Developers. You’ll find notes from both sessions below.
I took my notes on Twitter as usual.
Hi, my name is Tim and I'm here to learn about Acumatica 2023 R2. Also, any company announcements that Acumatica might have. I fear that this event might be heavy on marketing gloss and light on product substance, but I decided to attend anyways 😀 #Acumatica2023R2 pic.twitter.com/x0A9JVithC

Acumatica Payments is the top new things that Ali wanted to highlight. It includes accepting ACH, gift car processes, automating deposits, subscriptions to the Customer Portal for click-to-pay functionality. Sounds like they "vampired" their ISV solutions #Acumatica2023R2 pic.twitter.com/iBna5IcjUT
