Epicor Prophet 21 Business Intelligence FAQ

Does Prophet 21 include built-in reporting and dashboards?

Yes. Prophet 21 offers reporting, dashboards, and analytics tools for reviewing operational and financial data, built for distributors rather than requiring a separate BI tool for basic visibility.

Can non-technical staff build their own reports in Prophet 21?

Yes. Report Studio lets users build operational reports and dashboards without database or coding expertise, with Excel export for further analysis.

Does Prophet 21 offer deeper analytics beyond standard reporting?

Prophet 21 offers Epicor Data Analytics, a dashboard- and grid-based analysis tool built on a third-party analytics engine, for distributors wanting to go beyond standard operational reports.

Does Prophet 21's analytics require a separate license or tool?

Core reporting and Report Studio are part of the platform, but Epicor Data Analytics is a distinct offering built on third-party technology — confirm current licensing and packaging directly with Epicor since this can change over time.
