16.10.2024: APR module for FY2024 is open in the PRODUCTION environment

The Commission services are pleased to announce that the APR module for FY2024 is open in the PRODUCTION environment via the Monitoring menu in SFC2021. This means that, similarly to last year, Member States can start preparing their 2024 APRs in SFC2021 as of today, 16 October 2024. The module is fully updated with all of the improvements discussed in the past GREX meetings (the ones that were available in the acceptance environment for testing since July 2024) and also contains the revised validation rules with the severity as indicated in Annexes III and VII of the APR Guidelines shared with Member States on 10 October 2024.

The Commission services would also like to reiterate, that the testing of the module in the Acceptance environment continues to be advised. In case of any issues with reporting in either of the environments, Member States should get in touch via e-mail with SFC Support or AGRI-C1-MEETINGS@ec.europa.eu.
