Interform for Infor XA

XA

Interform extends Infor XA with a modern output platform for documents and labels, replacing traditional IBM i formatting tools and custom printing approaches. 

Infor XA provides the data. Interform transforms, enriches and delivers output outside the ERP, keeping forms and workflows stable across Infor XA versions. 

What the Interform solution for Infor XA is 

The Interform solution for Infor XA is designed for organisations that need version-independent, no-programming output management for IBM i environments. 

It modernises Infor XA output by separating design, workflows and delivery from the ERP, while supporting both spool-based output and native XML flows. 

From spool-to-XML in seconds 

Interform supports native XML flow (from R11) and spool-based output. The Interform SpoolToXML400 converts IBM i spool files to XML in seconds. 

It requires no programming and works with SCS and AFPDS formats. This provides a standardised way to integrate with all Infor XA versions (RX6, RX7, RX9 and beyond) and unlock modern design and workflow capabilities. 

Once converted, Interform can apply advanced layouts, workflows, branding and business rules. 

Modern and flexible document design 

Interform provides a browser-based designer with drag-and-drop editing. 

It supports dynamic layouts, conditional logic and full Unicode, with high-quality graphics, barcodes and vector support. 

Forms stay independent of Infor XA versions. The solution includes the Infor XA form package and embedded attachment support (IDF). 

Workflow automation 

Interform automates delivery across print, email, PDF, archive and API routing. 

It supports multi-step workflows across IBM i and non-IBM i applications, with automatic distribution based on business rules. 

The solution is delivered with pre-configured Infor XA workflows and onboarding designed for customers moving from third-party tools. 

Manufacturing

Data enrichment and lookups 

Interform can add missing data from databases, APIs, WMS or CRM systems. 

It can merge PDFs or attachments and apply logic without Infor XA or MAPICS modifications. 

The solution supports Infor XA XML integration, System-Link and IDM. 

High-performance printing 

Interform supports native label printing for ZPL, PCL and industrial devices, with barcode and RFID support. 

It is optimised for Infor XA’s SCS and XML output and supports fast output for high-volume manufacturing. 

Monitoring and visibility 

Interform provides real-time logging and alerts to identify missing data, printer issues or workflow errors. 

It provides a full audit trail across Infor XA and connected systems, and supports preview of output directly inside Infor XA.
