Highlighting Inquiries provides visual clues on rows or columns of a generic inquiry based on customized conditions that have been introduced. Based on the alerts required, the system will highlight certain elements of a generic inquiry. For example, when inquiring on “opportunities”, the resulting grid can show those opportunities that have been won in green, those that have no owner in yellow, and opportunities that are late in red.

Link existing files to Acumatica entities –2019 R1 now provides the ability to easily add links to attachments that already exist in the system.

User Defined Fields can be used in a customization project to add new fields in multiple forms in each of the modules without a programmer. If the field to be added has not already been defined, the user can define a new field by managing attributes on the pop-up attributes form.
Progress Bar for long-running processing is in a pop-up window that provides insight to the completion percentage, as well as the elapsed and remaining running time of the process. The window has tabs which record the job status, including: Processed, Errors, Warnings, and Remaining. Because it runs in the background, users can do other work in the same browser tab while the long-running process continues. See it in action.
