We discuss important aspects of global PDF analyses beyond NNLO in QCD with emphasis on the impact of recent higher-order calculations that are part of the ingredients of recent approximate N^3LO PDF determinations. In particular, we discuss the role of heavy-quark mass treatments and DGLAP evolution at N^3LO in QCD.
