Marquis IQ connects to Acumatica Manufacturing Edition and Distribution Edition via the native Acumatica REST API, delivering the multi-site analytics and board-ready reporting that Acumatica's built-in dashboards weren't designed to provide.
Acumatica's Generic Inquiries and built-in dashboards are designed for operational visibility, what's on order, what's in stock, what invoices are outstanding. They're adequate for day-to-day management. For PE-grade analytics, consolidated P&L across entities, ABCXYZ customer segmentation, price-volume-mix attribution, or month-over-month trend analysis, they require workarounds that don't scale.
Acumatica is also frequently the "new ERP" at the platform site of a PE portfolio, while acquired companies run something older. That means the consolidation problem is real even when the ERP itself is modern: clean data from Acumatica still needs to roll up alongside data from other ERPs at other sites.
Acumatica's REST API is their officially published integration interface, schema-stable, versioned, and built to support exactly this kind of external analytics connection. Marquis uses it exclusively. No database-level access, no fragile screen scraping, no undocumented endpoints.
Acumatica's manufacturing module covers production orders, bill of materials, material requirements planning (MRP), and manufacturing cost tracking. Marquis connects via the Acumatica REST API, extracting the manufacturing-specific data objects, production orders, work centers, routing, and cost variances, that operational and financial teams need for cross-site analytics. Incremental sync keeps data current without overloading the Acumatica tenant.
Acumatica's distribution module handles purchasing, inventory management, order management, and sales order processing. The Marquis connector for Distribution Edition pulls sales orders, purchase orders, inventory transactions, AR aging, and customer history, the data that feeds Sales IQ, Inventory IQ, and Cash IQ. The same REST API connection handles both Manufacturing and Distribution editions running within the same Acumatica tenant.
Acumatica made the right architecture decision, a published, versioned REST API that external systems can rely on. Marquis takes that foundation and builds the analytics layer Acumatica's built-in reporting was never meant to be.
We chose Acumatica because it's a modern, open system. We chose Marquis because Acumatica's Generic Inquiries weren't going to give us the cross-entity analytics our PE sponsor needed at every board meeting.
