Users can either create their custom SVG icons or download them and use them for workspaces instead of the default ones.
Use case: Let us assume that the user wants to modify the icon for the Production Workspace of Acumatica.
To modify the Workspace icons below mentioned are the steps:
Download/create an SVG icon.
Now copy this SVG file to [instance_name]/Content/svg_icons folder.
Open this file in Visual Studio.
After you open it, the file will contain the below code. The following code is an example of the SVG file that we have downloaded in this blog.
And enter the below surround the code tag of <path> by <symbol> tag.
<symbol id= “production_icon”> <path d= “…”> //this tag is already present </symbol>
id: represents the ID of the icon. viewBox: represents the coordinates of the icon. The dimensions defined in viewBox should be for a square layout of the icon. In our case since, the viewBox attribute is already present in the code, there isn’t any requirement to add a new one. You can even remove the viewBox attribute from the <svg> tag and can put it in the <symbol> tag. In case there are multiple icons in one svg file, make sure the correct values have been specified for each of them.
And hence, save the file.
Now log in to Acumatica, with the credentials have to right to edit the Menu page.
Click on the More Menu (three dots) in the lower left bottom of the screen, and select Edit Menu.
This will change the screen in editing mode.

Select the production_icon option from the Icon dropdown menu.
And then click on OK.
And at last, select the Exit Menu Editing option in the lower left bottom of the screen.
Refresh your browser and hence, the icon has been modified.
