If you’re a distributor, you already know the juggling act never really stops. You’re constantly trying to keep products moving, shelves stocked, customers happy, and your team firing on all cylinders. Add in a volatile economy, changing customer demands, and increasing competition—and suddenly, “business as usual” can start to feel like a high-stakes balancing act.
Sound familiar?
The good news is you don’t have to go it alone. With the right tools—specifically, a modern cloud ERP system built with distributors in mind—you can not only stay afloat but actually thrive in today’s unpredictable market. That’s where Acumatica comes in.
And with the release of Acumatica 2025 R2, there are even more powerful tools at your fingertips to help you sell smarter, fulfill faster, and grow stronger.
A cloud-based ERP like Acumatica brings everything together: inventory, sales, procurement, customer data, and financials, all under one roof. That means real-time visibility, automation where it matters, and the flexibility to scale with your business.
But here’s what really sets Acumatica apart: it’s not just a generic ERP. It’s built with distributors in mind, and it’s shaped by real feedback from real customers.
Acumatica 2025 R2: What’s New for Distributors?
The latest release, Acumatica 2025 R2, launched on September 23, 2025, and it brings with it a host of updates designed specifically to help distributors like you work smarter, not harder. Let’s break down a few highlights.
1. Cross Sell Assistant – Because “Would You Like Fries with That?” Still Works
Ever wish your sales team had a built-in assistant that knew exactly what to suggest to a customer—based on actual buying patterns?
Powered by AI, this feature analyzes your historical sales data and uncovers which products tend to be purchased together. Then, right from the order entry screen, it surfaces relevant product suggestions—whether the items are stocked or not.
And the more you use it, the smarter it gets. Accept a suggestion? Delete one? It learns from you, making future recommendations even more on-point.
Bottom line: Your team gets an intelligent sales sidekick that helps boost order values without the guesswork.
2. Order Orchestration Assistant – Warehouse Decisions, Made Easy
If you manage multiple warehouses, you know the daily decision-making around fulfillment can be… exhausting.
Do you ship from the closest warehouse? The one with the most inventory? What about shipping costs?
Enter the Order Orchestration Assistant. This tool helps you make smarter, faster decisions by offering two key fulfillment strategies:
- Destination Priority: Ship from the warehouse closest to your customer.
- Warehouse Priority: Ship from the warehouse with the best stock availability.
The assistant even supports bulk order processing, so you can work the way you’re used to—just faster and with better outcomes.
No more spreadsheets. No more shipping puzzles. Just streamlined fulfillment that keeps your customers happy and your operations running smoothly.
3. Automated Amazon Settlement Reports – Because Reconciling Shouldn’t Ruin Your Day
If you sell on Amazon, you already know how tricky those settlement reports can be. Managing payments, refunds, and fees manually is time-consuming—and prone to errors.
That’s why Acumatica 2025 R2 introduces automated Amazon settlement reconciliation. Here’s how it works:
- It pulls your settlement reports directly from Amazon.
- It validates and imports the transactions into Acumatica.
- A dashboard shows you everything in one place—matched transactions, unmatched ones, sync status, and financial summaries.
The result? Huge time savings, fewer mistakes, and cleaner books.
No more late nights battling spreadsheets—or questioning your sanity.
A Partner for the Long Haul
At the heart of everything Acumatica does is the belief that we grow stronger together. That customer-first mindset is what’s made Acumatica the fastest-growing cloud ERP company in the world—and the one with the highest customer satisfaction ratings in the industry.
