AIR Technical Guidance

Proposed technical structure and content of  Annual Implementation Reports (AIR)

(referred to in Article 50 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, Article 75 of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 and in ANNEX VII to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014)

Documents - How can I validate the signature in the Acknowledgement documents?

The acknowledgement of receipt is signed with an electronic certificate guaranteeing the date and time of the signature as well as the integrity of this document. The certificate used to sign this document is held by the European Commission and can be verified by the corresponding public key.

The first step to validate the signature is to install the certificate in Acrobat.

(This step is only necessary once per machine)

General - The Object is 'Returned', so why is the 'Current Node' displayed as 'European Commission'?

When an object is returned by the Commission in SFC2014 it will display as 'Current node' -> 'European Commission'. This is because the version that has been returned is no longer editable by the Member state and they must create a new version of the object in order to edit the information.

IR - Table 5 - Performance Framework - As the AIR 2016 is submitted in 2017, shouldn't the Table 5 'Information on the milestones and targets defined in the performance framework' be available?

In 2016 Table 5 was not editable because it was required for 2017.

 

The reports to be submitted in 2017 and 2019 have a deadline of 30th June.

The following new elements will be added to the Implementation Report in March 2017:

  • Macro regional strategies structured elements

  • Additional columns 13 and 14 in Table 6

  • Table 5 Performance Framework

  • Additional validation rules

Documents - What is the document Size Limit and restrictions for file formats in SFC2014?

The size limit per file is 500MB.

There is no limit on the number of files or the total size of all files in an object.

The following file extensions are allowed:

“.7z”, “.bmp”, “.csv”, “.docx”, “.jpeg”, “.jpg”, “.msg”, “.ods”, “.odt”, “.odp”, “.odg”, “.odc”, “.odf”, “.odi”, “.odm”, “.ott”, “.ots”, “.otp”, “.otg”, “.pdf”, “.png”, “.pptx”, “.rar”, “.rtf”, “.tif”, “.tiff”, “.txt”, “.xlsb”, “.xlsx”, “.zip”, “.gif”, “.eml”
