Just the usual cautions:

1. Read the 7.4 MTU (Memo to Users) at
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=users-about-i-memo
2. Read the 7.5 MTU at
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.5?topic=users-about-i-memo
3. Read the 7.4 Upgrade Planning (Hardware and software) at
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/880105
4. Read the 7.5 Upgrade Planning (Hardware and software) at
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/6554580

What predominantly green screen ERP package are you running?
We are running the following on 7.5
Infor Enterprise Resource Planning LX
Version 8.3 Release 03

We are about to upgrade to release 5. I have verified that all of our
commercial software packages installed have been validated on this release,
except for our ERP software.
They have not yet installed or tested on this "new" release.

This is a "legacy" type ERP system where everything is green screen...
It's written in RPGLE (OPM converted from RPG). Outside of my own
modifications, it's a basic green-screen application. Another customer I'm
aware of upgraded to v7r4 and has not encountered any issues.

For testing purposes, we upgraded our DR system to v7r5 and did some tasks
in the ERP. Everything seemed to work OK.

I'm just curious if anyone has encountered specific issue(s) going to v7r5
that we might want to test for before pulling the trigger on the upgrade?

TIA,
Greg
