Acumatica Version Control

Introduction

Managing Acumatica customizations with version control ensures traceability, collaboration, and safe deployments. This guide covers best practices.

Customization Projects

Acumatica stores customizations in projects:

• Customization Project - Contains all customizations
• Files - ASPX, code files, images
• Scripts - Database scripts, setup
• Publishing - Track version history

Git Integration

// Recommended .gitignore for Acumatica:

/App_Data/*
!/App_Data/Include/
/Site/
/App_Online/
/temp/
*.user
*.suo

// Track:
/Site/ASPX/**/*.aspx
/Customization/
/Scripts/
/App_Data/Include/

Best Practices

• Separate Projects - Use different projects for different modules
• Version Tags - Tag releases in Git
• Document Changes - Include change logs
• Test First - Always test in dev before prod
• Backup Before - Backup before publishing

Summary

Version control for Acumatica customizations improves collaboration and reduces risk. Use Git to track changes and manage deployments.
