I recently discovered Yuriy Zaletskyy's blog (click here). He is a developer and writes about Acumatica from a technical perspective. I took some time and skimmed through all of his posts. For the next few weeks I’m going to highlight the ones that I found interesting. For this week, here is a post about how to create a brand new screen in Acumatica. This is over my head right now, but I hope to come back to this post in the future and get comfortable with it so I can create my own screens in … [Read more...]
Sergey Blog: Acumatica Branch Security
Sergey has a great post up about Acumatica branch security. Branches are a part of the multi-company setup configuration strategy in Acumatica (click here). The nice thing about branches is that they aren’t just accounting buckets because they also carry security along with them. So you can have multiple locations or business units and you can keep your users from seeing things outside of their respective location or business unit. It seems to me that situations which used to required you to … [Read more...]
Week 3 – Out in the Cold With the Acumatica Database
After taking a detour last week and exploring how to add new fields to existing screens in Acumatica (click here), I decided to return to the task of learning to create Excel reports that point directly to the Acumatica database. I began with this idea three weeks ago (click here) and continued two weeks ago by taking some baby steps to create a very simple Excel report (click here). This week I decided to pickup with where I left off a couple weeks ago and attempt to continue reproducing the … [Read more...]
Acumatica Blog: Acumatica Branches and Entities
Jean Gea has a new post up on the Acumatica blog with a nice simple overview of how multi-company works in Acumatica. I blogged about this last year after taking the F300 Inter-Company Accounting (V3.0) course (cilck here). It looks like what they used to call companies, they are now calling entities. Acumatica is definitely in a good position to appeal to companies with multiple distinct business units because of how easy it is to deploy web-based technology and because of the strong … [Read more...]
Sergey Blog: Overcoming Basic Authentication Error in Excel Acumatica
Sergey gives us a tip on how to overcome the basic authentication error that you get when you try to refresh an exported Excel file over a connection that is not using SSL. This is a common occurrence when you are giving a demonstration of Acumatica because there is a high likelihood that you won’t be using a secure server for the demo. Sergey’s post interests me because it’s related to the Excel Export feature in Acumatica. I have also been interested in this feature recently and have been … [Read more...]
Acumatica Blog: NUCLEUS RESEARCH PUTS ACUMATICA CLOSER TO LEADER QUADRANT IN LATEST TECHNOLOGY VALUE MATRIX
Acumatica has a new blog post up. I really like this post because I didn’t know that such a matrix ranking even existed for mid-market ERP products. This is good stuff! I downloaded the entire 13 page report and read it very carefully. The report includes a write-up on each vendor included in the matrix. A few of my random thoughts: … [Read more...]
Adding New Fields To Existing Screens in Acumatica
Update (October 4th, 2016): This post was written on Acumatica 4.2, but things have changed since Acumatica 4.2. To see this done in the latest version of Acumatica, checkout this post by Mark Franks. Michael Coman provided another great Acumatica learning experience for me. The last one was related to creating a Project Quote (click here). This time he responded to a post on this blog and asked a question about adding new fields to existing screens in Acumatica (click here). At first I … [Read more...]
Sergey Blog: Access to SQL Server by SQL Query Analyzer or Management Studio Acumatica
Sergey has a new post up about how to access your Acumatica database from outside your network. This is interesting to me because I’m currently experimenting with making Excel reports that point directly to the Acumatica database (click here). Sergey’s trick would be needed if these kinds of reports were to be implemented in a production environment. … [Read more...]
Richard Duffy: Acumatica Google Chrome App
Richard Duffy put together a nice video about how to publish your implementation of Acumatica as a Google Chrome App. This isn't anything fancy from a technology standpoint, but I think that it provides a nice user experience and has the "cool factor" which is very important. I personally am a big fan of using Google Chromebooks (click here) for internal training. It's very easy to bring a stack of ten Google Chromebooks into a conference room, setup a projector for sharing your screen, and … [Read more...]
Zaletskyy’s blog: Screen Numbering in Acumatica
I discovered yet another Acumatica blog out there. This is great for the Acumatica community. Zaletskyy has a great post about what the screen IDs mean in Acumatica. I did a post a while ago about how great screen IDs are (click here), but I didn’t realize that there was a method to the numbering. … [Read more...]
