I will be starting with the F100 Hands-On Financials (V4.0) course. Tonight I downloaded the material needed to complete the course. I will go through the 157 page .pdf file and setup a company from scratch. I like the from scratch approach. In the past I have worked with demo data when learning an ERP product, but it was hard to pay attention since the data was already created for me. I'm hoping that building a company from scratch will help me to stay more engaged during the learning … [Read more...]
Acumatica University Login Information
Today I received my invitation email with a link to create an account on the Acumatica University training platform! This gives me access to an entire library of training courses. I like the online format. With the previous ERP products that I learned, I had to dust off photocopies of old training manuals. Having the information online is a big improvement. Taking a quick glance, it appears that there are 41 courses available. I'll be checking with ARCVAR to see … [Read more...]
ARCVAR – A Really Cool VAR

In exchange, I will help produce training … [Read more...]

APAL – A Perpetual Acumatica Learner
May 1st, 2013 So what do I mean by A Perpetual Acumatica Learner (APAL)? Perpetual can be defined as: "never ending or changing" This blog will approach Acumatica from a learner's perspective. Currently, I hardly know anything about Acumatica. However, as time goes on and I acquire more and more Acumatica knowledge, I might be tempted to fall into the mindset of ANEXPERT. This is dangerous. Even the most seasoned ERP veterans should always maintain a learner's mindset. APAL never arrives, … [Read more...]
Introduction
I have decided to begin writing a blog about learning Acumatica (click here). This is going to be quite a learning experience, both with learning Acumatica and with trying to communicate via a blog. It could be a failure or a success. We'll see how it goes... I first became interested in Acumatica sometime last year (can't remember exactly when). It was mentioned on the Panorama Consulting Solutions blog (click here). As I began to learn more and more about Acumatica, I became more and more … [Read more...]
