When you’re new to it, learning new ERP software can be frustrating. Especially, if you’re left trying to feel your way around the system with little instruction. This is not only frustrating; it is also time consuming and can really hurt your productivity and chances for a good user adoption rate. So, any time you spend a lot of money and time implementing an important software system like an ERP, you must have a plan in place for how you will train your users on the software. And the training process should be as easy and stress-free as possible. Acumatica understands this and their solution to the training conundrum many ERP buyers face is Acumatica Open University.
What Is Acumatica Open University?
Acumatica Open University is a free Acumatica training portal. It’s open to anyone who wants to learn more about Acumatica and how it works. On it you will find Acumatica training videos, guides and other supplemental materials like Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations and visual aids for users who want to make the most of their software.

Why Should I Use Acumatica Open University?
Acumatica University is a cost-effective, efficient way to give your team the Acumatica ERP training they need fast. If you visited the Open University in the past, you may have found it difficult to decide which training courses you should take. Courses for end-users and implementation partners/consultants were mixed. So, unless you read the course descriptions closely, you might not be sure which was which.
But I have good news. Acumatica developers have fixed this issue with its redesigned course catalog. Now, end-user and implementation partner courses are labeled and color-coded. End-users should look for the courses with the green and navy course images at the top of the page. The courses at the bottom of the page with the bluish purple and navy course images are for Acumatica partners.
The end-user courses include:
- Basic Financials
- Prices and Discounts
- Sales and Purchases
- Inventory Replenishment and Purchase Requisitions
- Service Management
- Equipment and Route Management
- Accounting for Projects
- Project Billing and Change Management
