The creation of a new version of the Partnership Agreement requires a user with Member State Authority (MSA) update access on the top Member State Level Node for the Funds that can be covered by the PA (= ERDF, CF, ESF+, JTF, EMFAF) and that are applicable for that MS. ERDF, ESF+ and JTF are always applicable. CF and EMFAF are not applicable for certain MS.
The validation and sending of the Partnership Agreement to the Commission requires two different users with Member State Authority (MSA) access - one user with update access and one with send access for all Funds concerned (ERDF, CF, ESF+, JTF, EMFAF) on the Top Level Member State node.
Every MS Liaison officer managing at least on of these funds (ERDF, CF, ESF+, JTF, EMFAF) is authorised to grant MSA update and/or send access for all funds concerned by the PA.
