Certificates
Entering the certificates can be done if requested by your data recipient.
Here are the tabs where you can enter the information. It is best to first fill in the 'Certificates' tab, as one code must be copied exactly when uploading the certificate itself.
This information only needs to be entered for the base unit and not for the higher levels of the hierarchy.
In these fields, you provide information about your certificate itself.
- The authority is the company that performs the certification, e.g., TÜV Nord BE-BIO-02
- The standard is the name of the logo of your certification, e.g., EU Biological Farming
- The certification number is the unique number of your certificate
- The dates should be entered as they appear on the certificate. Always update these when you receive your new certificate. This can be done quickly and easily via Excel.
Through this tab, you can add your certificate if requested by your data recipient.
You can add it file by file by uploading the certificate or adding the link to the webpage where it is available.
Important! In the 'Document name' field, you must enter the same name as in the 'Certification standard' field, which can be found in the 'Certificates' tab. For example: EU Biological Farming.
Fields regarding language and dates are optional to fill in.
