Released: Enhanced GPSR Compliance for Kaufland Integration
We are excited to announce a new update to our Kaufland integration that strengthens product safety compliance in line with the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR). This update requires sellers to include key product safety information, including the manufacturer or EU Responsible Person’s (EURP) details, in product listings.
To maintain compliance with the latest GPSR standards, Kaufland is now requiring sellers to provide the name, address, phone number, and email address of the manufacturer or EURP. These fields are being integrated into both the catalog templates and old export formats, allowing sellers to fulfil GPSR requirements seamlessly.
Enhancing Safety Compliance and Simplifying the Setup
Enhanced Safety Compliance: Sellers can easily meet GPSR requirements and provide critical safety information to buyers.
Simplified Setup: Required fields for GPSR compliance can be quickly mapped in the Kaufland catalog, reducing complexity.
Sellers are now responsible for mapping and providing GPSR-compliant product safety information for each item in their catalog. This will allow Kaufland customers to access essential safety details in line with updated standards.
Fields in the Catalog
The catalog templates have been updated to include a new group named "Manufacturer / EU Responsible Person." This group contains the following fields for mapping:
Name
Email address
Address
Phone number
For guidance on setting up these fields, please refer to the recommended mappings in the manual.
Fields in the Old Export
In the old export format, information for the manufacturer or EURP is automatically drawn from Setup » Item » Manufacturers and formatted in the CSV file for each product.
If the EURP information is maintained, it will be prioritised for transfer.
If the EURP details are incomplete, manufacturer information will be used instead.
Action Required
Sellers must complete the setup of the GPSR safety information fields by December 13, 2024 to avoid any disruptions in managing product listings.
