3 Key Features of Acumatica That GP Users Will Love

With support for Dynamics GP ending in 2028, many GP users are planning their next steps and looking for which ERP solution to move to. While there are many options available, Acumatica is an ideal replacement.

Acumatica includes many specifically designed, industry-specific tools that can streamline your workflows, automate redundant processes, and improve overall business efficiency. In addition, it is a fully cloud-based solution, which means it supports business growth and scalability in ways Dynamics GP never could.

Beyond these benefits, though, there is an abundance of built-in features (which don’t exist in GP) that make your work life easier in new and innovative ways. Read on to learn about three of them!

Automation Schedules

Automation schedules in Acumatica are a tool that automates recurring tasks to increase productivity and free up time. You can set up automation schedules to automate necessary but mundane tasks, such as importing data, sending emails, automatically creating invoices, and more.

Benefits of automation schedules include:

Users can save considerable time and effort and focus on higher-value activities.
Reducing the risk of human error associated with manual data entry or task execution.
Ensuring tasks are performed consistently and according to predefined parameters, leading to reliable results.

Customizable Dashboards

Customizable dashboards are a collection of widgets that can be tailored to display key information in real time. You can create dashboards from a variety of sources, as well as customize the layout, add or remove dashboards, and change colors. They are a convenient way to display essential data at a glance.

Benefits of customizable dashboards include:

Creating a focused view of metrics and KPIs that are most important to specific users.
Automatically updated data, providing current information for decision-making.
Eliminating the need to create multiple reports for different users, saving time and effort.

One-Click Excel Exports

One-click Excel exports in Acumatica will export the contents of the grid to Excel. Users can create custom Excel exports by building a button on a screen to export specific data, such as financial reports. Exported data is fully formatted and customizable for every user.
