​Microsoft Dynamics GP Roadmap to 2028 and Beyond​

Dynamics GP is now under the Modern Lifecycle policy

In October 2019, Microsoft introduced the Modern Lifecycle Policy for Microsoft Dynamics GP.  Before this date, the system was governed by the Fixed Lifecycle Policy.  The Modern Policy offers continuous support and servicing, including bug fixes, new features and the latest tax updates three times a year.
