Overview

​

Acumatica Application Development enables you develop an web application that enables you to manage a business function that is not managed by the Acumatica ERP Foundation software. For instance you want to manage your truck fleet, or your rental business.

Acumatica provides a xRP Development platform that contains tools to develop applications. Such tools consist of web services, templates, etc.  For more details click here or go to https://adn.acumatica.com .

The following types of Acumatica applications can be developed:

• Embedded applications

  • For instance, in the Fixed Assets, you can add a truck fleet management application. The form of Fixed Assets will get another button called Truck Fleet Management, and access the Acumatica database. This application will reside with in the Acumatica ERP, and is therefore called embedded.

• Extensions aka Integrations

  • The application is an extension of the Acumatica ERP software. For instance an E-Commerce site has its own database and forms/screens but it uses the Acumatica webservices (RESTful APIs) to transfer data (eg. sales orders from the shopping cart to Acumatica, or shipment notices from Acumatica to the E-Commerce site) to/from Acumatica.

  • These extensions or integrations have been build by Acumatica Independent Software Vendors (ISV) and can be seen here.
