With Acumatica you are free from the headaches of server maintenance and on-premise hardware management. With your ERP in the cloud, it’s easy to enjoy the seamless scalability and focus on business growth without worrying about technical constraints. Acumatica makes it simple to monitor your system’s usage and ensure that your operations are running smoothly within your licensing plan. By periodically reviewing your usage metrics, you can proactively manage your resources, avoid overages, and ensure optimal performance. In this article, we’ll walk you through how to easily access and interpret this vital information.
Navigate to the Licensing Monitoring Console:
System Management -> Licensing -> License Monitoring Console
License Tab – will show your system constraints based on your license.
- Monthly Commercial Transactions is the single highest volume of transactions within these transaction types: Sales Orders, Shipments, AR Invoices, Customer Payments, Purchase Orders, Purchase Receipts, AP Bills, and Vendor Payments
- Monthly ERP Transactions: The total number of times an Acumatica object is created or modified (essentially the same as clicking Save on an Acumatica form). This will be set to the Monthly Commercial Transaction limit x 20.
- Database Storage Included in your Acumatica license.
Statistics Tab –
- The statistics tab shows you the percent of the limit you have used by month (top grid).
- Click on any month row to see the statistics by day in the bottom grid.
- To find out the type of transactions that make up your transaction count
The Warnings tab will display any warnings generated by the system indicating you have exceeded a constraint. Details for each warning can be found in the Constraint History section.
The Constraint History tab displays the additional constraints included in your Acumatica license.
These include the number of fixed assets, inventory items, and business accounts. Each of these constraints can be broken out by the tenant ID.
If a warning shows you exceeded a constraint, you can return to the Statistics tab to see what the cause was. After identifying the cause of your system constraint warning, you can easily adjust your license model to fit your business needs better.
Monitoring Your Space Usage
Acumatica users can easily view their Database Space Limit, how the used space is being allocated, and make adjustments according to their needs without needing a developer. Space Usage can be viewed in the System Management workspace.
The amount of space each tenant is using, how much space is used by snapshots (old snapshots can be deleted to increase the space available), and see space usage for each table.
Adjusting your Monthly Usage Allowance
To support your growing business needs, we recommend regularly monitoring your system usage. If you exceed your system limitations more than twice within a twelve-month period, it may be time to upgrade your consumption level to align with your expanding operations.
Acumatica’s scalable design makes it easy to adjust your Monthly Commercial Transactions or Monthly ERP Transactions to match your growth.
