Abacum to Bring AI-Native FP&A to Community Summit North America 2026

Abacum, the AI-native FP&A platform built for modern finance teams, will join finance and technology leaders at Community Summit North America 2026 to showcase a more connected approach to financial planning, forecasting and reporting.

For many organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central or Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, the ERP serves as a critical source of financial actuals. But much of the work required to plan what happens next still takes place outside the ERP.

Headcount assumptions may live in an HRIS. Pipeline and revenue data may live in a CRM. Budget inputs may be collected across spreadsheets. Forecasts, scenarios, and management reporting often require finance teams to manually bring those inputs together.

Abacum helps connect those systems and workflows in one planning environment.

“ERP systems give finance teams a strong foundation for understanding what has happened,” said Julio Martínez, Co-Founder and CEO of Abacum. “FP&A has to take that information further and help the business understand what happens next. That requires connecting financial actuals with the operational drivers behind the plan.”

Abacum integrates with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, as well as CRM, HRIS, billing, and other business systems. This allows finance teams to bring financial and operational data together while keeping the ERP as the source of record for actuals.

From there, teams can manage core FP&A workflows, including budgeting and forecasting, headcount planning, revenue planning, scenario analysis, and management reporting, without relying on disconnected spreadsheet processes.

For Microsoft Dynamics users, that can mean moving from a process where ERP data is repeatedly exported and rebuilt into planning models to one where actuals and operational assumptions remain connected to the plan.

At Community Summit North America, attendees will be able to see how Abacum supports finance teams with workflows such as:

• Connecting Microsoft Dynamics actuals with CRM, HRIS and other operational data
  
• Keeping hiring, revenue and financial plans aligned as assumptions change
  
• Building and updating forecasts without recreating models each cycle
  
• Modeling scenarios across the P&L, cash flow and other key business drivers
  
• Creating management reporting from the same underlying planning environment
  
• Using AI to support data preparation, analysis, forecasting and reporting while keeping finance in control
  

Abacum works with finance teams across a range of industries and company sizes, helping organizations modernize FP&A without sacrificing the flexibility finance teams need to operate.

“Planning should not become harder as the business gets more complex,” Martínez said. “The best finance teams need systems that give them both structure and flexibility, so they can spend less time maintaining the process and more time helping the business make better decisions.”

Abacum will be exhibiting at Community Summit North America 2026 at Booth #2127. Attendees can visit the team to learn more and see the platform in action.
