January 25th - the deployment date of the EU Hub Release 1.16

CZMVO team communicates information from EMVO: the deployment date of the EU Hub Release 1.16 in PRD: 

As part of the deployment of EU Hub Release 1.16 on 25 January 2025, EMVO is introducing critical changes to the Product Master Data (PMD) and Product Pack Data (PPD). Additional existing fields will become mandatory, and action is required to ensure compliance. 

 Required actions: 

• Review the new requirements: Consult the EMVS Master Data Guide here and Version 4 of the Q&A Document on “PMD Introduction of Additional Mandatory Fields” here. 
• Check your data: Ensure all mandatory fields are properly completed when uploading PMD/PPD to the EU Hub. Please note this step must not be executed in the OBP Portal. 
• Check your systems: Coordinate with your team or service/connection provider to ensure your systems are ready for the new requirements. 

Please note that in case you fail to complete the mandatory fields, you will be prevented from uploading data to the EU Hub starting from 25 January 2025 onwards. This aligns with legal obligations under Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/161 (Art. 33). 

Deployment timeline: 

• The deployment will begin at approx. 08:00 CET on 25 January 2025  
• Release 1.16 will be ready for use in PRD at approx. 23:00 CET on 25 January 2025
