- Present myself and my role at Acumatica (the bridge between the engineering team, sales & marketing teams; the voice of the customer and partner for product development and design) Today I’m here to present you… Q: who attended
- Most ERP products are dull and boring. We, at Acumatica, have some cool features that will keep your users in a positive mood! Today, I’d like to show you some of the features in Acumatica that demo particularly well. I will also be taking this opportunity to introduce some of the new features in Acumatica 5.0.
- Oh – by the way, here’s the system that guy was working with.
- Wow… That’s much better! OK, let’s get started with #1 !
- Branding Login to Starbucks Show where the images are Show themes folder, open CSS file Site Map - It’s also possible to change the site map – for example you could group together all the main tasks your user has to do and put that into a separate section of the site map Tailoring to the user (use two browsers) USER: admin / admin See that user has full access to the system, no restrictions USER: beauvoir / 123 Discuss security (visible screens, fields, menus depend on security) Explain that even in cases where you don’t want to restrict access, that it also makes sense to use security to cut down the number of screens and menus. Reducing visual clutter makes software easier to learn and master. GOTO: Controller dashboard SELECT: View Document from bill on dashboard ADD: fields to personal grid SHOW: drag-drop of column on grid SHOW: smart sorting and filtering on each column
- Try not limiting your imagination to Acumatica only – when demoing, include content from the outside word Example 1: Embed Box.com widget Example 2: Put on dashboard Example 3: Direct Excel link in site map -> LOGIN FIRST OTHERWISE EMBED WON’T WORK gmichaud@hotmail.com / 135X Example 4: Embedding portions of Acumatica into Wordpress site (portal demo) Most of all – Acumatica is the anytime, anywhere, on any device solution Acumatica is purely browser-based, and no plug-in or special app is required It works with any browser
- Getting to your data is EASY, thanks to the multiple possibilities offered by Acumatica List Interface: show how this is configured
- Export Customer Summary Create a New Invoice, Show that data can be refreshed Upload Price List, explain that upload feature is available in many screens, such as purchase orders, sales orders Integration services: unique feature about Acumatica, which allows you to import and export on *any* screen using an Excel file Always existed, but we keep on making it easier to use – demo lead import
- Activities, Tasks and Reminders Scenario 1: Customer calls you to ask about order status [favorite]. Add phone call activity to indicate history, and show that Activities are available on top of screen. Explain that most screens in Acumatica show this You can also create tasks. Tasks can even be assigned to another person in your team. Scenario 2: Collection activity, create task, assign to someone else and set reminder. Show that task sync’ed with my mobile Activities that you can create can be seen from Activities tab in CRM Accounts screen File Attachments Same as with activities, in every screen you have ability to attach files Also possible at file level Partners have built integration to store these files on cloud providers such as Amazon S3, Box.com Portals We don’t charge per user – your are free to create accounts for all your customers and partners Show example of checking inventory Show example of checking account balance Explain that it can be extended to fit the unique needs of customer Wikis If you have internal procedures, forms, promotions, or any content that you would like to share with your employees, you can use wikis. Example 1: AME Corporation ISO Auditor Username: iso.auditor Password: Iso33amecorp Sales Role Username: Sales.Demo Password: Sales33amecorp Example 2: Kido Vendor Price Lists, Marketing Promotions, Recall information
- Key theme: “Don’t worry about common tasks, Acumatica will take care of them for you” Processing Screens: Scenario - Contract Billing. Your company has support contracts with multiple customers, and wants to automate the billing of these contracts. Some customers are charged a yearly amount, others are invoiced monthly based on the level of activity during this month. Show that processing screen have a filter area, which can help you refine what should be processed Using this Processing Screen you can automate all of this This is just one example of a processing screen – we have multiple processing screens in Acumatica. Scheduling: Best of all, this can be scheduled! Recurring Transactions Scenario - You have this internet connection bill that you need to enter every month Similar to how you schedule a processing screen, you can also schedule individual documents (Actions->Add to Schedule) Document Templates You can create document templates to speed up data entry – for example, creating a new stock item and pre-filling with your own default information Notifications You sometimes want to be informed when something happens in your system – for example a large payment is created. Here’s another example of Acumatica working for you
- Acumatica provides a set of web-based tools that allows you to change the appearance, business logic and add custom fields to your ERP deployment. Let me show you how easy it is: Add custom field TODO: Prepare DB field to avoid double publishing of customization Show new preview Explain that business logic can be changed -> show code editor and explain that having code source helps you understand how it was built
