Software reaches end of life support for a number of reasons such as technology innovation and development driven changes to the product, or the software matures over time and is replaced by functionally richer technology. 
Access to Full EDM software support will be available for a period of 2 YEARS from the date of release of a Major EDM version.  

Full Support 
Comprises investigation and replication where possible and workarounds identified within local support environments. 
  • Software issues will be addressed in upgraded releases within the major EDM version.

Partial Support
Comprises investigation and replication where possible, for a FURTHER 1 YEAR from the date of end of full support.  However, we cannot guarantee to have a local support environment available and support may be limited to webEx sessions, enterprise software jira, telephone and e-mail support.   
  • IHS Markit EDM will no longer develop or address issues in the software for partially supported EDM versions.

Unsupported
Unsupported version support will be limited to webEx sessions, enterprise software jira, telephone and e-mail support only.  EDM support will not have local environments available to enable investigation or replication of issues. 
  • IHS Markit EDM will no longer develop or address issues in the software for unsupported EDM versions.
