Have you seen the latest SQL support announcement from Infor?

With the April 2025 (2025.04) release of SyteLine, Infor will deprecate support for Microsoft SQL Server 2016 and 2017. This means that Infor will no longer certify SyteLine as compatible with these versions of SQL.

As of the April 2026 (2026.04) release of SyteLine, Infor will no longer allow the use of SQL Server 2016 or 2017. This means that the installer will fail if trying to create a new database or uplift an existing database running on SQL Server 2016 or 2017.

Infor will continue to support Microsoft SQL Server versions 2019 and 2022.
