His proposal is not ideal, but it is an acceptable compromise.
The ending '-abel' often occurs in adjectives derived from verbs. It means 'can be ...'. 'Akzeptabel' (acceptable) is therefore something that one can 'akzeptieren' (accept).
Ist dieser Preis für Sie akzeptabel?
Is this price acceptable for you?
To express for whom something is acceptable, use the preposition 'für' (for) followed by the accusative.
Die Bedingungen sind für uns nicht akzeptabel.

'Akzeptabel' (acceptable) is often used to evaluate things that are the result of negotiations or assessments. Typical collocations are: an acceptable price, an acceptable solution, an acceptable risk, or an acceptable result.
Nach langer Diskussion fanden sie eine für alle akzeptable Lösung.

'in Ordnung' and 'akzeptabel' can both express that something is good enough. 'in Ordnung' sounds very natural in everyday language and can also mean that something works correctly or that you agree. 'akzeptabel' emphasizes more strongly that something can be accepted, even if it is not perfect. It sounds a little more objective. If you simply want to give your agreement, 'in Ordnung' often fits. If you are judging quality, 'akzeptabel' is more precise.
Die Lösung ist akzeptabel, aber wir können sie noch verbessern.
The solution is acceptable, but we can still improve it.
Für mich ist der neue Termin in Ordnung.
