Automatic Inventory Transfer Creation for Epicor Prophet 21

One location needs stock. Another has it. How much time does your team spend connecting the two?

Checking inventory across warehouses, reviewing open orders, deciding what can move, and creating transfers can take a lot of manual work.

At MindHARBOR, we’ve built custom inventory transfer automation for Epicor Prophet 21 to help teams turn inventory and demand information into transfer requests using their business rules.

Compare Available Stock With Location Needs

One custom project analyzes P21 inventory and open sales orders to identify locations that need stock and determine where that stock can come from.

The workflow considers regular stocking needs and backorder demand, using P21 Score Card information and custom data tables to support the calculations.

That helps the team evaluate transfers across locations using a consistent process.

Apply Your Stock & Scheduling Rules

Moving inventory should account for what the supplying location needs to keep.

This project incorporates protected stock, reorder points, and other customer-specific calculations into the transfer logic.

It also checks estimated transfer dates against a custom exclusion-days table and adjusts dates to avoid specified days and weekends.

Those details help make the resulting transfers fit the customer’s stocking policies and operating schedule.

Create Transfer Requests in P21

Once the calculations and date checks are complete, the application brings the results together into transfer requests and submits them to P21 through the API.

This reduces the repeated work of gathering information and entering transfers individually.

Build Around How Your Locations Operate

Your business may have different sourcing priorities, stock protection rules, transfer schedules, or approval requirements.

We can review those needs and tailor the workflow—including review screens, exception handling, and notifications where needed.

This is an example of a custom project we’ve delivered. We bring experience and reusable approaches to each engagement, so custom software doesn’t have to mean starting from scratch.
