The methodological reports of the national system for Integrated Farms Statistics are submitted by filling the Quality Report template available at the ESS Metadata Handler. Due to issues encountered in the past, we advise to use Firefox or Google Chrome instead of Internet Explorer for editing your quality report.
Logging in with EU Login
Use you EU Login UID and password to access the ESS Metadata Handler.
Figure 63 – Welcome screen of the ESS Metadata Handler
The EU login is using your email address as a user name. However, access to the ESS MH can currently only be provided using your unique identifier (UID). This UID usually consists of the first 5 letters of your last name and the first 2 letters of your name, for example: Sarah Anybody anybosa.
You can find your UID after logging in to the EU Login
Go to your name on the upper right side of the page and click on the icon next to it |
|
Click on 'My Account' and subsequently on "my account details" |
|
Find your UID on the third line of the details provided ("anybosa") |
|
Please send your EU Login UID to ESTAT-metadataec.europa.eu to be granted access to the ESS MH. Note that no access can be granted without the UID. An email address is not sufficient.

Editing the metadata handler template
Once you are logged in, you will find your country file prefilled with information from your previous quality report. Please fill the report as thoroughly as possible. For many of the concepts used, we have added guidelines, which you can find directly in the Metadata Handler.
Use the 'Edit' button to modify the prefilled answers. |

The (G) button gives access to further guidelines |

Do not forget to save all data entries and submit your final report for validation.
