Powered Even More by AI
It seems like everything in the world of businesses and innovation is being led by artificial intelligence (AI) and Acumatica 2025 R2 is no exception.
This latest release takes an AI-first approach by introducing embedded AI automation through Acumatica AI Studio (a component of the Acumatica xRP platform). This powerful tool provides AI-powered solutions for ERP to solve real business challenges by providing a low-code/no-code platform for building intelligent workflows and enhancing operational efficiency.
These AI-powered workflows address complex processes that require detailed instructions, eliminating the need to manually provide these instructions every time. The prescribed scenarios can include anything from generating support case closure notes based on the case activity history to creating a website description for an item using a predefined template.

Plus, with streamlined web and mobile screen layouts, powerful filters, and quick-access buttons, you’ll navigate your work with ease and find what you need faster.
