What is Acumatica Distribution Edition?
Acumatica Distribution Edition is a specialized version of Acumatica Cloud ERP. It is a distribution management and inventory software designed to help companies manage their supply chain and logistics activities. This comprehensive solution includes warehouse management, inventory management, and order processing (sales and purchase orders).
It seamlessly integrates these features with the company’s financials and sales to create a single source of truth. With Acumatica Distribution Edition, you can streamline cross-company buy-sell transactions, improve customer satisfaction, reduce order times, and control costs across the entire supply and distribution chain.
Key Features of Acumatica Distribution Edition
Acumatica Distribution Edition includes Sales Order Management, Advanced Inventory, Requisition Management, Purchase Order Management, and Advanced Financials to optimize the entire procurement process.
It is fully integrated with Acumatica’s Warehouse Management System (Acumatica WMS), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Manufacturing, Field Service, and Project Accounting. This combination ensures that information only needs to be entered once for visibility across all modules and the entire business organization.
Cloud access with the mobile application enables distributors to manage the entire sales cycle from opportunity to sales order processing in the office, on the road, or from a home office. Process purchase orders, financial and sales data, transfer stock, reorder quantities, and manage inventory levels remotely via phone, tablet, or laptop.
