But that's not all. We've made significant improvements to the user experience.

Whether you're managing inventory, processing orders, or generating reports, you'll find that Prophet 21 is now more intuitive and user-friendly than ever, saving you time and enhancing your overall experience.
Take a deeper look at some of these enhancements so you can see how quickly they can transform your business.
Prophet 21 release 2025.1 places a strong emphasis on automation and efficiency, streamlining various processes to save time and resources. Scheduled Task- AR and Scheduled Task-Statement features automate financial reporting and customer communication, helping ensure accuracy and consistency. Mass Update improvements allow users to handle large volumes of data more quickly, enhancing overall system performance. Additionally, continued integration with Elite EXTRA, a comprehensive last-mile transportation solution, now pushes signatures, photos, and shipment confirmation back to Prophet 21, further streamlining operations and saving users valuable time.
Improving the user experience is a key focus of this release. Angular Migration Windows upgrade enhances performance and responsiveness for several windows, including Item Master Inquiry and Customer Maintenance. This results in a smoother and more intuitive interface, making interactions with Prophet 21 easier and more productive. Numerous improvements to Report Studio provide greater control over reporting and portal configurations, leading to improved data management and accessibility.
Ensuring compliance and traceability is crucial for businesses, and Prophet 21 addresses these needs with several important updates. First, with today’s uncertainty in the global trade market, we’ve added functionality to Landed Costs to support new Landed Cost Driver Types, to help you manage tariffs. New functionality will be coming soon to Sales Order and Invoicing Process, providing additional ways to manage tariffs. Enhancing traceability and accountability, adding Created By to the Inventory Returns Audit Field gives you greater visibility and an audit trail to identify who made changes.
