Acuity MRP gives Acumatica manufacturers and distributors real-time material planning, multi-level BOM explosion, AI-powered analysis, and forward-looking inventory visibility — using the data you already have.
Acuity connects directly to your Acumatica instance and reads your BOMs, inventory, sales orders, purchase orders, and production data in real time. No exports, no flat files, no manual syncs. Your live ERP data is the foundation.
At its core, Acuity is a time-phased MRP planner. It nets supply against demand, explodes multi-level BOMs, factors in lead times, safety stock, expiration dates, minimum order quantities, and working day calendars — then tells you exactly what to order and produce, and when.
That engine combined with your data powers everything else — forecasting, availability calculations, inventory calendars, material flow diagrams, AI explanations. Every feature is a different way to see, understand, and act on what the MRP engine already knows.
Acuity was designed around how planners, buyers, and operations teams actually work — not how ERP software thinks they should. Every screen, every calculation, every report was built to match the way real purchasing and production decisions get made. And the product is still early. What you see today is the foundation — the roadmap is driven by the people who use it.
Every feature pulls live data from your Acumatica instance. No spreadsheet exports, no middleware, no duplicate entry.
Nets supply against demand across daily, weekly, or monthly buckets. Multi-level BOM explosion. Urgency tags — Late, Order Today, Act Soon, On Track. Past-due flagging, safety stock, MOQs, and working day calendars built in.
Direct API connection to your Acumatica instance. Real-time data. No spreadsheet exports, no scheduled syncs, no third-party connector sitting between you and your data.
Enter an item, quantity, and target date. Acuity explodes the BOM, checks every component, identifies the bottleneck, and returns the earliest feasible date plus maximum committable quantity.
Six methods — Simple Moving Average, Weighted Moving Average, Single & Double Exponential Smoothing, Seasonal Decomposition, and Ensemble. Confidence intervals. Named scenarios for side-by-side comparison. Generate forecasts from historical data or enter them manually.
Sales calendar: every open order scored against projected on-hand. Green — inventory on hand before the scheduled date. Yellow — not on hand but a valid plan (PO or production order) exists. Red — not on hand and no plan exists. Production calendar: every scheduled build scored against component readiness.
Computes realized lead times from your PO receipt history — by item, vendor, warehouse, or any combination. Simple average, quantity-weighted, or median. Results feed directly into Acuity's planning engine — no more guessing with stale item master values.
Lead time, safety days, min order qty, order increments, safety stock — all configurable per item, per vendor, per warehouse. Bulk import/export. Planner notes that the AI reads when generating explanations.
Save any MRP filter set — warehouse, item slice, date window, bucket size — and re-run it later. Rolling dates auto-advance. Stack multiple reports into one consolidated AI briefing.
On-hand inventory isn't usable if it expires before the demand date. Acuity factors lot expiration into every calculation — if material expires before it's needed, it drops out of on-hand consideration and MRP plans new supply.
AI that doesn't just summarize your MRP output — it helps you understand it, combine it, and turn it into real orders.
Click any suggested order and Acuity streams a narrative explanation — what's driving demand (which sales orders, which BOMs, which forecasts), what supply is incoming, why this date and this quantity. Reads planner notes, respects UOM differences, and produces an audit trail anyone on the team can follow.
Pulls your full MRP plan, groups orders by urgency and type (purchase vs. produce), pre-computes which dates are late, and writes an executive summary. Know what needs to be ordered, produced, and prioritized before you've had your first cup of coffee.
Create report templates that combine multiple MRP reports into a single AI briefing. If you plan across several item subsets, warehouses, or product lines — each with their own filters — bundle individual reports into one consolidated summary instead of running them one at a time.
AI summaries are useful. Actually creating orders from them is better. Review the recommended orders, select what you need, and create purchase orders and production orders directly — without re-entering anything. The report doesn't just tell you what to do, it lets you do it.
Where it's heading, where it's committed, and where it's arriving from.
35-day forward projection of on-hand balance, color-coded from healthy to stockout. Every event — PO arrivals, sales orders, production starts, forecast hits — plotted on the timeline with safety stock thresholds drawn in.
For any item, see exactly which sales orders, production orders, and BOM-driven demand each unit of on-hand is allocated to. What's committed, what's unallocated, what's short. Filter by warehouse, drill by demand type.
Multi-source supply convergence — visualize where incoming inventory is arriving from across vendors and production orders, and how it maps to open demand.
Calendars, timelines, flow diagrams, and AI summaries — because a 10,000-row spreadsheet helps no one.
Allocation Sankey — trace every unit of on-hand and incoming supply to the customers and orders it's committed to. Shortages visible instantly.
No customization projects to publish. No consultants to schedule. No downtime for your users.
Acuity doesn't install a customization project into your Acumatica instance — so there's nothing to publish, no risk of conflicting with your existing customizations, and no need to kick users out of the system during setup.
Point Acuity at your Acumatica URL, provide API credentials, sync your data, and you're running. No multi-week implementation project, no mandatory consulting engagement. Setup in hours, not weeks.
If Acuity MRP covers 90% of what you need but your operation has a unique workflow or edge case, we'll work with you to build it. Custom development, tailored reporting, specialized integrations — reach out and let's talk about what you're trying to solve.
Request a demo and we'll walk through Acuity MRP connected to your Acumatica instance — your data, your items, your results. Acuity is designed to replace Acumatica's MRP module, not sit on top of it — so the cost isn't additive.
