29 April 2025
Important notice 29 April 2025: a small number of products are affected by a synchronisation issue with PMS, and the forms where they are used cannot be exported and finalised. Once the products are added to the eAF, export the form, you should see the message “Data refresh cannot be completed. Aborting the operation. Please retry again.”. Please use the interactive PDF instead. The teams are working on fixing this issue, and a new message will be published once it is resolved.
EMA is pleased to announce that the web-based Human Variations electronic application form (eAF) for Centrally Authorised Products (CAPs) has gone live on 4th November 2022, on the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) portal. This is a big, first, milestone in the ongoing journey to improve the eAF and related processes. EMA has been collaborating with the UNICOM consortium to develop the human variation form and other new web-forms.
Following the release, users of the Human Variations eAF should expect continual work on improvements in the form of regular releases. These will be a mix of bug fixes, scheduled improvements, improvements based on user acceptance testing (UAT) feedback, or that may be identified by users after the release and new features, such as additional structured data fields.
Following a successful updated product load in April 2024, the use of the web-based eAF is now strongly recommended for all Centralised Procedure variation applications (where possible). Please note that a small number of limitations still exist in the system, however, the use of the web-based form should start becoming the first option, and the use of the interactive PDF should be only in cases where the use of the web-based form is not yet possible/feasible in the view of limitations.
The eAF team is pleased to announce that the PLM portal web-based eAFs can be used for all EU products and procedures starting from 11 February 2025. Please follow user guidance, the current release notes and EMA announcements in relation to any known technical limitations.
The formal transition period will start when nationally authorised products (NAPs) and features supporting all use cases covered by the interactive PDF eAF will be added to the form. The current interactive PDF eAF will remain available until the end of the transition period.
The PLM portal will, in due course, host all eAFs. In the future, it will also host the data input user interface for product management service (PMS) data and the interface to provide data for electronic Product Information (ePI). The PLM portal will develop over time to inform and support you in the use of these services.
This document lists and briefly describes the new features and fixed issues included in the release of the PLM portal. The most recent release appears first.

| ID | Description | Comments |
| 215586 | MRP Procedure number | Improvement on the validation rule for the MRP procedure number field: the error message is now triggered right after selecting the MRP/DCP products, and not just on the finalisation of the form |
| ID | Short description |
192583 | Type(s) of change(s) section - UI design implementation. The new UI design will be implemented in the ‘Scope and procedure type’ selection section. This is part 1 of the implementation and further changes and improvements to this section will be delivered in a later stage. |
215586 | Improvement to the validation rule for the MRP procedure number field - the error message will be triggered as a section level validation error (currently only as a finalisation error). |
192584 | Procedural information section – UI design implementation. The new UI design will be implemented in the ‘Procedural information’ section. This is part 1 of the implementation and further changes and improvements to this section will be delivered in a later stage. |

Known issue | A small number of products are affected by a synchronisation issue with PMS and the forms where they are used cannot be exported and finalised. Once added the products in the eAF, export the form and should you see the message "Data refresh cannot be completed. Aborting the operation. Please retry again.”, please use the interactive PDF instead. The teams are working on fixing this issue and a new message will be published once it is resolved. |
230186 | The ATC code added in the Present and Proposed using the ATC code popup is not completely functional, and the display in the PDF is not correct. Variations for ATC code should be done in the free text fields in Present and Proposed section. |
Known issue | The section 4a (Orphan) and 4b (paediatric) are not reflected correctly in the exported PDF. In case you need to fill in a form where sections 4a and 4b should be filled in, please use the interactive PDF eAF until the issue has been solved. |
Known issue | When exporting the PDF, the export is intermittently not triggered on the first attempt but might require multiple attempts before succeeding. |
xEVMPD data issue | Cyrillic characters showing ‘?’ in the full name field – this is not a data issue but reflecting data from xEVMPD. This needs to be corrected by the respective MAHs with new version of product to be sent to xEVMPD. |
Known issue | Other Applications – Select EMA Procedure has no related procedures available for selection/has only limited procedures available for some products. Workaround: use the +Add to manually add other ongoing applications. |
Known issue | In Medical Device section the ‘EU authorised representative’ option is missing. Workaround: use the interactive PDF eAF for variations where in section 4d option ‘EU authorised representative option needs to be selected. |
Known issue | The selections from the Medical Device section 4d. are not correctly reflected in the PDF export in some cases. Please note: for variation applications indicating a change in the device in section 4d. please consider using the interactive PDF eAF. |
Known limitation | Products authorised in Finland: The full name of product is displayed (randomly) either in Finnish or Swedish. |
Known limitation | Products authorised in Belgium: The full name of product is displayed (randomly) either in Flemish, French or German. |
Known issue | In section Type(s) of Change(s) – scope selection: known intermitted issue where selection of all conditions and documentations using the high level tickbox will result an error message saying all conditions and documentations should be selected or note should be provided. |
Known limitation | 23965 - Conditions and documentation are presented in different order from the variation classification guideline. |
Known limitation | Concurrent users – there is currently a limitation in the system where 2 or more users can work at the same time in the same application form, however, the changes cannot be saved at the same time and this could lead into data loss by one of the concurrent users. It is strongly recommended to organise a workflow internally to avoid any data loss. |
Known limitation | 22845 – Deletion of Application Form is not yet available. |
23545 - Performance issues | Number of sections take very long to open or to display the changes/selections made by the user; for example in Finalisation section, most functions take much longer than acceptable e.g. displaying the parallel procedures section can take up to 1 minute etc. |
Known limitation | 23963 - Finalisation: Annexed document and Declaration Section are presented in random order |
Various | Performance improvements e.g. Finalisation section – implementation postponed |
210325 | Present and Proposed section - implementation of the remaining features/functions. Expected deployment: Q3-Q4 2025 |

| 230186 | The ATC code added in the Present and Proposed using the ATC code popup is not completely functional, and the display in the PDF is not correct. Any changes in the ATC code must be done in the standard Present and Proposed boxes |
| 185709 | Allow the selection of an ‘Alternative’ organisation name in the eAF (displayed on the PDF) |
| Known issue | When exporting the PDF, the export is intermittently not triggered on the first attempt but might require multiple attempts before succeeding. |
| Known issue | Cyrillic characters showing ‘?’ in the full name field – this is not a data issue but reflecting data from xEVMPD. This needs to be corrected by the respective MAHs with new version of product to be sent to xEVMPD. |
| Known issue | Other Applications – Select EMA Procedure has no related procedures available for selection/has only limited procedures available for some products. Workaround: use the +Add to manually add other ongoing applications |
| Known issue | In Medical Device section the ‘EU authorised representative’ option is missing Workaround: use the interactive PDF eAF for variations where section 4d needs to be filled in |
| Known issue | The selections from the Medical Device section 4d. are not correctly reflected in the PDF export in some cases. Please note: for variation applications indicating a change in the device in section 4d. please consider using the interactive PDF eAF. |
| Known issue | Products authorised in Finland: The full name of product is displayed (randomly) either in Finnish or Swedish |
| Known issue | Products authorised in Belgium: The full name of product is displayed (randomly) either in Flemish, French or German |
| Known issue | In section Type(s) of Change(s) – scope selection: known issue where selection of all conditions and documentations using the high level tickbox will result an error message saying all conditions and documentations should be selected or note should be provided. |
| Known limitation | 23965 - Conditions and documentation are presented in different order from the variation classification guideline |
| Known limitation | Concurrent users – there is currently a limitation in the system where 2 or more users can work at the same time in the same application form, however, the changes cannot be saved at the same time and this could lead into data loss by one of the concurrent users. It is strongly recommended to organise a workflow internally to avoid any data loss. |
| Known limitation | The system creates an empty row in summary of Present and Proposed when ‘save’ is pressed after filling in certain sections. The empty row should be edited to contain the changes or deleted – will be resolved with the new present and proposed design |
| Known limitation | 22845 – Deletion of Application Form is not yet available |
| Known limitation | 23545 - Performance issues Number of sections take very long to open or to display the changes/selections made by the user; for example in Finalisation section, most functions take much longer than acceptable e.g. displaying the parallel procedures section can take up to 1 minute etc. |
| Known limitation | 23963 - Finalisation: Annexed document and Declaration Section are presented in random order |

| Important note to all PLM portal users | Due to an identified issue with ingredient data on the PLM portal, the following medicinal product data will be removed from the Product Lifecycle Management portal from 13 to 17 January 2025:
This means the above data will be unavailable in Product Management Service Product User Interface and Human Variations electronic Application Form.
|
| Various | Performance improvements e.g. Finalisation section – implementation postponed |
| 207009 | Proof of Payment section: business rules fixes and non-CAP procedure support It is currently not possible to indicate different details for non-CAP WS variations for countries with pre-payment and countries with billing details Expected deployment: Q1 2025 |
| 210325 | Present and Proposed section re-design and performance improvements implementation of the remaining features/functions. Expected deployment: Q1 2025 |
| 219351 Development finalised – pending production deployment | eAF integrity stamp: Upon Finalising the application form, a digital signature confirming that the form has been exported from the PLM portal is placed on the PDF export by the system. Important note: The integrity stamp is a digital signature which is placed in the PDF export automatically by the system when the application form is Finalised. It is planned that once this feature is rolled out, it will become mandatory to ‘Finalise’ the forms meaning that if an eAF is submitted without the stamp it is likely to lead to rejection of the form and request to resubmit with a ‘Finalised’ form. Please note that it is possible to include an additional, company specific ‘Digital signature’ in the exported, Finalised eAF PDF form after the automated system integrity stamp has been added. Other types of signatures, such as image of a signature and adobe signature cannot be included in the form after the integrity stamp has been added by the system. Expected deployment: Q1 2025 |

| Known limitation | Concurrent users – there is currently a limitation in the system where 2 or more users can work at the same time in the same application form, however, the changes cannot be saved at the same time and this could lead into data loss by one of the concurrent users. It is strongly recommended to organise a workflow internally to avoid any data loss. |
| Known limitation | 23545 - Performance issues Number of sections take very long to open or to display the changes/selections made by the user; for example in Finalisation section, most functions take much longer than acceptable e.g. displaying the parallel procedures section can take up to 1 minute etc. |
| Known limitation | Proof of Payment section: It is currently not possible to indicate different details for non-CAP WS variations for countries with pre-payment and countries with billing details |
| Known limitation | 23963 - Finalisation: Annexed document and Declaration Section are presented in random order |

| 16208 | Select All button must select all the available records in Available Products table and Packaged Products table | Also products that are not displayed on the page (in case of pagination) are selected when select all button is used. NOTE: only packages that have been loaded already will be selected. It is very important to check that all packages needed have been loaded and selected prior to finalising the form. |
| 23547 | Procedural information: Some mandatory fields are not mandatory in the form | The following fields are now mandatory:
|
| 23896 | Error after wrong date format for Implementation date | When the implementation date format is entered incorrectly (in Type(s) of Change(s) Type IA/Type IAIN only, the correct validation message is now displayed. |
| 25396 | Packaged medicinal products are not shown when combining scopes and medicinal products | An issue related to display of packaged medicinal products in some applications has now been fixed and all packaged medicinal products for the selected medicinal products should now be visible in the Proposed changes section. NOTE: This is a partial fix to the issue as only those product/packages that have been loaded by the system are visible. There is a delay in loading the packages in Present and Proposed table. The delay issue will be addressed in a future release. |
| 76861 | Select All in combination with pagination will delete the previous selection | An issue related to applications containing more than 50 packaged medicinal products has been fixed. It is now possible to select all packages for all selected medicinal products NOTE: There is a known issue affecting this section and only approx. 200 packages can be selected at one time. |
| 77891 | Update the Validation Status of Procedural Information Section | Any field validation change should update the validation status. NOTE: This is a partial fix to the issue. The section level validation will remain valid (green) and will only reflect the ‘not completed’ status only if the ‘validate button is repressed. Field level validation errors are shown correctly. |
| 86890 | Packages may not be loaded in when present/proposed is opened | The packages table on the proposed changes screen will now have a loading circle (spinner) to indicate that it is waiting on backend processes to finish creating the relevant records. Once the backend processes finish, the spinner will disappear, and the table will be loaded. There is no need to refresh the page as the table will load on its own. |
| 93686 | Friendly name validates at 100 chars but fails at 80 chars already | A technical issue (bug) detected on the background preventing finalisation of the eAF with a Friendly name exceeding 80 characters has been fixed. |
| 94280 | MAH phone number should validate without save | The validation error is no longer displayed when the ‘validate’ button is pressed after including the MAH phone number. |
| 95272 | Procedural Information - Reference Member State field error | Only relevant to WS procedures that do not contain any CAPs (fixed in preparation for NAPs release):

Issues fixed in this version
| ID | Description | Comments |
| 24816 – web eAF | RPI cannot be blank validation message is displaying always when CAP product is selected | Remaining known issue: Validation error in product selection is incorrectly showing up if ‘Validation’ is pressed immediately after Saving. This issue has been partly fixed; the incorrect list was linked to the products resulting RPI validation issue for every product. This part of the issue has been addressed. |
| 24731 – web eAF | The Proposed Package Item Content is not linked to Application Form | The Proposed Package Item Content created when Present Package Item Content doesn't exist and has no link to Application Form and Application Form Type. Hence these records are not available for FHIR XML creation and doesn't reach PDF. |
| 24728 – web eAF | Update Chatbot look and feel | |
| 24649 – web eAF | Additional information section is displaying as completed without validate/export | Additional information section was automatically changed to ‘completed’ status when it was not filled in/validated by the user. After the bugfix the additional information section remains in ‘not completed’ state until the user manually validates the section |
| 24819 – web eAF | PDF export is taking long time and loading is displaying for long time | This issue was affecting forms where there were more than 10 medicinal products selected. |
| 24991 – web eAF | Medical device is displaying proposed changes without click on save | Medical device section was displayed even when the user clicked ‘cancel’ button and no changes were made and no save button was pressed. |
| 24703 – web eAF | Incorrect date sorting for Export window | The list of PDF exports was displayed in random order. |
| 24805 – web eAF | Prompt message on ‘Delete device’ | Issue relating to ‘Delete device’ button has been fixed. |
| 24924 – web eAF | Validation button is not working in all sections | Validate button was not working correctly in all sections. |
| 24990 – web eAF | Validation error message is displayed in proposed changes section after combining scopes and packaged medicinal products | Scrambled validation error message is not be shown when scope and product combinations are updated. |
| 26295 – FHIR XML | The HTML Change Provenance (unstructured provenance) doesn't contain the HTML changes when the proposed value and the present value are the same | This issue resulted a missing present and proposed section in the FHIR XML and in the PDF export when same value was presented in both ‘present’ and ‘proposed’ fields e.g. if user had added ‘see details on separate annex’ in both fields, the present and proposed sections were not available in the xml and were hidden in the PDF. |
| 26247 – FHIR XML | Impossible to use the same image twice in the text areas in a form | |
| 22013 - PDF | Updated text for the 'no address change' in the declaration in present and proposed section | The text has been aligned to correspond with the updated text as per PDF eAF release on 14th October 2022. The text now reads ‘I declare this variation does NOT result in any changes in manufacturers (i.e. name/address change, addition or replacement of manufacturing site) or the Marketing Authorisation Holder. This update was done to ensure the correct use of the section – for any change that concerns an organisation e.g. change of a manufacturing site, the site must be selected from OMS. For further details on the use of this section please see: European Medicines Agency practical guidance on the application form for centralised type IA and IB variations page 13 |
| 24738 – PDF |
| The appendix part of PDF was deleted as non-relevant. The changes are now reflected in the present and proposed section where relevant e.g. ATC code. The text size in Precise scope and Background sections and the Present and Proposed fields is now same size as in all other fields in the PDF making the form content easier to read. |
