There is no option to login via SSO for Outlook plugin. It just have an option to enter local credentials. While searching online, this issue was almost from beginning. Is Acumatica not looking to improve this feature from several years? Why ?
Also, Looks like, It doesn’t support new Outlook mode (Currently, Microsoft has replaced legacy Outlook) as the login window gets disappeared after entering credentials. Has anyone faced such issue?

Hi
Community Update: we are in the process of creating a specification but a specific release date is not yet available - our goal is 2025.
Plan: Acumatica will silently log users into the Acumatica Outlook Add-in via SSO. For phase 1 we will link the email of the user’s Microsoft 365 account to the email in the Acumatica User Profile.

Please note that New Outlook is still a preview version, and not officially supported: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-apps/outlook/get-started/deployment-new-outlook
If you wish to test the preview version of New Outlook, the workaround is posted here:
If Option 1 does not resolve, for SaaS customer, please contact Acumatica support for the web.config change in Option 2.
+1The new version of the Outlook integration now supports SSO through OpenID Connect with Acumatica native users:
New idea to specifically support Entra ID (FKA Azure Active Directory) SSO with the Outlook integration:
