The Commission is closed between the 23.12.2023 and 02.01.2024 inclusive. The presence of the SFC Support team will be very limited during this time. We advise users to complete any urgent tasks before 22.12.2023.
The new module ‘Data on LAGs for LEADER – LAG identification’ is now available in SFC2021 Production environment under the menu ‘MONITORING> Data on Monitoring and Evaluation> Data on LAGs for LEADER (EAFRD)’: https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/epc2021/sfc-epc/home.
The Commission expects one submission by country (2 for Belgium) for LAGs selected in 2023 to be submitted by 30 April 2024. That's why the creation at LAGs data version should be done always at the national nodes, not at the regional ones.
To encode the Data on LAGs for LEADER, please upload the XML file for the LAGs identification (under section ‘General > Documents’) and submit the data to the European Commission.
For the encoding, validation & submission of data, the Member States’ users must have the MS Managing Authority (MA) or MS Paying Agency (MSPA) when there is only one Paying Agency per Member State, otherwise the MS Coordinating Body (MSCB) role for EAFRD. On the other hand, the users assigned with the new role, Entities authorised by the Member States for the encoding of data on LAGs, will be able to only encode & view LAGs data uploaded at their node.
Template of the XML files to be used for LAGs data encoding are to be found here:
The Quick Guide for the LAGs module is currently under preparation & we will notify you when it will be published in our portal.
You can send feedback, questions, or comments to the SFC2021 Support Team: EC-SFC2021-INFO@ec.europa.eu.
