EU Digital Product Passport: Exporters' Preparation Begins with Product Data

If information is not connected to explain which version of a product it refers to, even a well-designed interface can result in discrepancies between the actual product and its records. Linking version values, application scopes, and approval records allows companies to verify which descriptions were used for which products. By distinguishing application periods and versions without overwriting older model records with new model information, companies can retrieve historical data for previously supplied products when inquiries arise.
