Acumatica integration via Apideck's Accounting unified API — same methods work across every connector in Accounting, switch by changing `serviceId`. Use when the user wants to read, write, or reconcile invoices, bills, payments, ledger accounts, and journal entries in Acumatica. Routes through Apideck with serviceId "acumatica".

# Acumatica (via Apideck)
Access Acumatica through Apideck's **Accounting** unified API — one of 34 Accounting connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to Access Financials, banqUP, Campfire and 30 other Accounting connectors by changing a single `serviceId` string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant Acumatica plumbing.
> **Beta connector.** Acumatica is currently in beta on Apideck. Expect partial resource coverage and occasional mapping gaps. Always verify coverage (see below) and fall back to the Proxy API for unsupported operations.
## Quick facts
- **Apideck serviceId:** `acumatica`
- **Unified API:** Accounting
- **Auth type:** oauth2
- **Status:** beta
- **Apideck setup guide:** [Connection guide](https://developers.apideck.com/connectors/acumatica/docs/consumer+connection)
+ - **Gotchas:** [page](https://developers.apideck.com/apis/accounting/acumatica/gotchas)

## When to use this skill
Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with **Acumatica** — for example, "create an invoice in Acumatica" or "reconcile payments in Acumatica". This skill teaches the agent:
1. Which Apideck unified API covers Acumatica (Accounting)
2. The correct `serviceId` to pass on every call (`acumatica`)
3. Acumatica-specific auth and coverage caveats
For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:
- [`apideck-node`](../../skills/apideck-node/), [`apideck-python`](../../skills/apideck-python/), [`apideck-dotnet`](../../skills/apideck-dotnet/), [`apideck-java`](../../skills/apideck-java/), [`apideck-go`](../../skills/apideck-go/), [`apideck-php`](../../skills/apideck-php/), or [`apideck-rest`](../../skills/apideck-rest/)
For the raw OpenAPI spec:
- **Accounting:** [https://specs.apideck.com/accounting.yml](https://specs.apideck.com/accounting.yml) · [API Explorer](https://developers.apideck.com/api-explorer?id=accounting)
## Minimal example (TypeScript)
```typescript
import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";
const apideck = new Apideck({
apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});
// List invoices in Acumatica
const { data } = await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({
serviceId: "acumatica",
});
```
## Portable across 34 Accounting connectors
The Apideck **Accounting** unified API exposes the same methods for every connector in its catalog. Switching from Acumatica to another Accounting connector is a one-string change — no rewrite, no new SDK.
```typescript
// Today — Acumatica
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "acumatica" });
// Tomorrow — same code, different connector
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "access-financials" });
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "banqup" });
```
This is the compounding advantage of using Apideck over integrating Acumatica directly: code against the unified Accounting API once, gain access to every connector in it. New connectors Apideck adds become available to your app without code changes.
## Acumatica via Apideck Accounting
Acumatica is a cloud ERP platform for mid-market businesses, with strong distribution, manufacturing, and services verticals. Apideck coverage targets the core financial management surface.
### Entity mapping
| Acumatica entity | Apideck Accounting resource |
|---|---|
| AR Invoice | `invoices` |
| AP Bill | `bills` |
| Payment | `payments` |
| Credit Memo | `credit-notes` |
| GL Transaction | `journal-entries` |
| Account | `ledger-accounts` |
| Customer | `customers` |
| Vendor | `suppliers` |
| Inventory Item | `invoice-items` |
| Tax | `tax-rates` |
| Purchase Order | `purchase-orders` |
### Coverage highlights
- ✅ Full CRUD on invoices, bills, payments, customers, suppliers
- ✅ Journal entries
- ✅ Purchase orders
- ✅ Credit notes
- ⚠️ Acumatica Generic Inquiries — powerful custom reports; not exposed, use Proxy
- ❌ Manufacturing and distribution modules — use Proxy for BOM, work orders, shipments
- ❌ Payroll
### Auth notes
- **Type:** OAuth 2.0, managed by Apideck Vault
- **Tenant + branch binding:** Acumatica supports multi-tenant + multi-branch. The connection is bound to one tenant; branch selection is typically passed per call.
- **Screen-based APIs:** Acumatica has both OData-style REST and "Screen-Based" Contract API. Apideck abstracts this; Proxy calls can hit either.
### Example: create an AR invoice
```typescript
const { data } = await apideck.accounting.invoices.create({
serviceId: "acumatica",
invoice: {
customer_id: "cust_abc",
invoice_date: "2026-04-18",
line_items: [
{ description: "Consulting", quantity: 10, unit_price: 150 },
],
currency: "USD",
},
});
```
## Escape hatch: Proxy API
When an endpoint isn't covered by the Accounting unified API, use Apideck's Proxy to call Acumatica directly — Apideck injects auth headers and handles token refresh. Set `x-apideck-downstream-url` to the target endpoint on Acumatica's own API:
```bash
curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/proxy' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
-H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}" \
-H "x-apideck-consumer-id: ${CONSUMER_ID}" \
-H "x-apideck-service-id: acumatica" \
-H "x-apideck-downstream-url: <target endpoint on Acumatica>" \
-H "x-apideck-downstream-method: GET"
```
See [Acumatica's API docs](https://help.acumatica.com) for available endpoints.
