Recently I completed three courses in Acumatica University: S125 Document Management, S200 Integration Services, and S300 System Management. Only one more course to go (S400 Introduction to Acumatica Technology) before I complete the Application Engineer badge. Although I don’t like to focus too much on the system maintenance stuff since I personally find it boring, it’s still good to go through the courses so I can at least be familiar with things. Once I finish the Application Engineer … [Read more...]

In Acumatica, how do I prevent users from changing the status of a customer?
Continuing the “Real-World” theme from last week (click here), I wanted to cover another real-world Acumatica situation. This question came to me through the Contact page here on the blog (click here). That’s right, this came from a person who is actually using Acumatica at their company! Here’s the question and a solution. I say a solution because I’m sure there is more than one way to tackle this. Note: I’ll keep this shorter than usual because I’m writing this in an empty living room, … [Read more...]
Acumatica vs. A Real-World Hybrid Solution Example

Using Gmail With Acumatica
Update December 11, 2019: This post has been updated with screenshots from Acumatica 2019 R2 and the latest recommended way to authenticate with Gmail using an app password.

Acumatica Input Validation and Regular Expressions
Acumatica allows you to attach input validation preferences to fields. This is very useful when you can’t use a drop-down list field for your scenario so you need a text field, but you want to put some amount of control on the text field. Good data entry is very important in an ERP system. The idea is that you can use the data in your ERP system to make critical business decisions. However, if the data isn’t very clean, you might waste a lot of time cleaning the data before it can be usable. … [Read more...]
