The PHENIX collaboration is actively pursuing a physics program to make precision open and closed heavy flavor measurements over a large rapidity range (−2.2<y<2.2$-2.2<y<2.2$). With the addition of silicon vertex tracking covering the full rapidity range of the central and forward detectors, we are now able to cleanly separate J/ψ and ψ  ' production at all rapidities and are expanding our measurements of inclusive open heavy flavor to separated charm and beauty measurements carried out via single lepton measurements and through the separation of prompt and B→J/ψ+X$\mathrm{B}\to \mathrm{J}/\psi +\mathrm{X}$ production. We present the current status of these measurements.
