Defects fixed:
Rural development programme (EAFRD)
• RDP EAFRD (13155) – The Validation rule 166 (5% LEADER) was triggered to National Programme when it shouldn’t. This has now been fixed.
Quarterly declaration of expenditure (IPA-RD)
• DOE IPARD (13157) – If the Declaration of expenditures was equal or before 2021Q1, the fields were empty. It was due to the fact that there was no rows for 2021 (and onwards) in the related adopted financial plan. This has now been fixed.
