EUDR-A Integration: Risk Analysis Without Retyping

The acadon EUDR Management App now connects directly to EUDR-A by GD Holz.

The data sits in the ERP. The risk analysis runs in another system. In between, someone copies suppliers, origins and quantities by hand. That costs time and creates errors.

Not anymore. Customers using the acadon EUDR Management App can now handle their EUDR risk analyses and due diligence statements (DDS) through a direct integration with EUDR-A, the solution developed by GD Holz, the German timber trade association.

🔗 How the integration works

The process runs in four steps:

  1. Send data: All relevant master and transaction data is transferred directly from Business Central to EUDR-A via API.
  2. Analyse risk: The risk analysis takes place in EUDR-A.
  3. Create and submit the DDS: EUDR-A creates the due diligence statement and submits it to the EU Information System TRACES.
  4. Import DDS references: The references TRACES returns to EUDR-A are passed on automatically to the acadon solution and assigned to the matching transactions.

The data stays where it is created. Analysis and submission are handled by the tool built for the job. The references end up where your team works.

⚙️ What changes in daily work

  • No double entry: Supplier and product data no longer has to be entered a second time.
  • Fewer sources of error: What isn’t retyped can’t be mistyped.
  • No manual route to TRACES: The DDS is submitted to the EU Information System directly from EUDR-A.
  • DDS references on the transaction: Reference numbers are available automatically on the right document in Business Central.

📦 Which data is transferred

By default, the integration transfers master and transaction data from Business Central. If you want to pass on additional EUDR-specific data, such as wood species, producers or geolocation data, the integration can be extended individually. Just get in touch.

🌲 Who the integration is for

For all companies placing timber and wood products on the market that want to cover their EUDR due diligence obligations with EUDR-A. Typically, these are timber traders and importers with many suppliers and a high volume of documents. That is exactly where manual data maintenance eats up the most time.

If you already work with the acadon EUDR Software, you can use the integration right away.

🤝 Built together with GD Holz

The integration was developed in close cooperation with GD Holz. Many thanks to the team for the great partnership.

Conclusion

The EUDR demands diligence. It doesn’t demand entering data twice. With the EUDR-A integration, risk analysis and DDS submission happen where they belong, and the references land where the work gets done.
