Infor News You Can Use: Driving Digital Product Passport Compliance

Crossroads RMC 0 2870 Article rating: 5.0

Prepare for Digital Product Passport Compliance with Expert Insight from Lora Cecere
Founder, Supply Chain Insights

With the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP) set to launch in 2027 for initial industries—batteries, consumer electronics, and textiles (footwear and apparel)—businesses are beginning to confront a rapidly evolving compliance landscape. Yet with many requirements still undefined, confusion is widespread.

Lora Cecere's latest research helps organizations cut through the uncertainty by offering actionable insights and a clear, customer-centric, outside-in approach to DPP readiness.

Key Highlights:

  • Start with the Customer in Mind
    Align compliance efforts with market demands to drive growth and gain a competitive advantage.

  • Break Down Silos
    Cross-functional collaboration—across sustainability, supply chain, procurement, and policy is essential for success.

  • Clarify Compliance
    Understand the core elements that define DPP compliance and the practical steps needed to achieve it.

  • Learn from Diverse Approaches
    See how companies are navigating DPP differently, with no one-size-fits-all path to readiness.

  • Adopt GS1 Standards
    Address the existing gap in the implementation of critical global standards for traceability and product information.

Build the capabilities your organization needs today to meet the demands of tomorrow—with a forward-looking, customer-first strategy.

Infor LX & BPCS: Explore IDF Programs

IDF (Infor Development Framework) configures your view of the application data without modifying the core application and its supportability. In version 8.3.4 and higher, IDF programs provide the replacement for most of the 300 series inquiry programs. Starting with version 8.4, Infor has added 100 series maintenance programs such as Item Master, Vendor Master, and Customer Master. With IDF, navigation drill-downs are far superior to any green-screen presentation of the data.

Included with IDF are several interfaces including:

  • PowerLink – A Windows-based client for end-users
  • Link Manager – A Windows-based environment administration client for importing environments, starting and stopping environments, and installing Fix Patches
  • Net-Link – A browser-based client (used by LX when running with SiW)
  • System-Link – A XML-based interface for processing transactions from external sources

The IDF ISO includes several components:

  • All of the above interfaces
  • Enterprise Integrator – for customizing IDF components and creating new business objects
  • EGLi – Enterprise General Ledger
  • CRMi – Customer Relationship Management
