Infor LX & BPCS Tip: Support for IBM i 7.3 and Infor LX Products

On September 30, 2022, IBM® announced the end of support of IBM i operating system 7.3 effective September 30, 2023. In line with IBM’s support policy, Infor will no longer support LX and related products on IBM i 7.3 after May 31, 2024. All Infor LX releases, patches, and related solutions are planned to be delivered and compiled at IBM i 7.4, effective June 1, 2024. These deliverables will install and function on version 7 release 4 (IBM i 7.4) and above. This will require that your operating system is at a minimum release level of IBM i 7.4.

This policy extends to other Infor LX-related technologies including WebTop, System i Workspace (SiW), and Infor Development Framework (IDF).

Action Steps If you have not done so already, we recommend that you start planning and completing your upgrade to IBM i 7.4 or above prior to June 1, 2024. After this date, if you register a support call with Infor Support, and your application still runs on IBM i 7.3 or older, you may be requested to upgrade to a supported version of the IBM i operating system.

In addition, we invite you to log on to Infor Support to view and download important information regarding Infor LX. Knowledge Base (KB) articles have been created to proactively provide you with information regarding this Announcement. ​Please consider clicking on the “Subscribe” feature within each KB article to receive notifications.

Did you know that you can set up one-time vendors in LX? One Time Vendor (1,A): Specify Y to indicate that this vendor is a one-time vendor. Otherwise, could you specify N. The system removes a one-time vendor's information from the Vendor Master file after all transactions are reconciled.
