Acumatica just announced the general availability of 2026 R2, the latest release of its cloud ERP platform for mid-market businesses.
The update features embedded AI, modern analytics, streamlined user experience, and industry-specific enhancements designed to help organizations improve productivity, make faster decisions, and scale more efficiently.
“Growing businesses aren’t looking for more AI experiments; they’re looking for practical AI solutions that empower teams to work smarter every day,” said Jon Pollock, chief product officer at Acumatica. “With 2026 R2, we’ve embedded intelligent capabilities throughout the platform while continuing to simplify the user experience and deliver deeper innovations tailored to the specific industries our customers serve.”
The new product release introduces innovative capabilities across AI, analytics, user experience, and Industry Editions to help teams reduce manual work, increase visibility, and act faster.
Acumatica continues to expand its AI-first strategy by embedding intelligence directly into everyday ERP workflows. New capabilities in AI Assistant and AI Automation help teams quickly and seamlessly answer business questions, detect anomalies, automate repetitive tasks, and trigger prompt-driven workflows without leaving Acumatica. Conversational dashboard management and configurable AI experiences help teams unlock greater productivity while keeping firm control over their business processes.
With 2026 R2, all customers will automatically transition to Acumatica’s modern user interface, creating a more consistent and intuitive experience across the platform.
2026 R2 lays the foundation for a unified, always-current view of the business with a high-performance governed data source that surfaces everywhere teams need it — in dashboards, financial statements, and now in the AI tools they already use.
Two advances anchor this shift:
Together with existing capabilities such as InsightXL, which connects live Acumatica data directly to Excel, these advances extend Acumatica’s analytics, so the same governed data reaches finance and operations teams through whichever surface the moment calls for — a dashboard, spreadsheet, AI assistant, or AI tool of their choice.
Acumatica continues to deliver purpose-built capabilities that address the unique operational needs of key industries.
“We’re focused on making advanced AI capabilities easier to apply in the real world,” said Miten Mehta, chief engineering officer at Acumatica. “With 2026 R2, we enable our customers and partners to build agents with plain text prompts and generic inquiries. We are giving teams more intuitive ways to access insights, automate routine work, and adapt the platform to how they operate.”
