Remember the discontinuity of the PSCP backward compatibility web services: end date 29/07/2024
On 22/05/2024, a new version of the services was added to the Public Procurement Services Platform and eLicita services that incorporates changes and new functionalities. At the end of this post you can find the new version document detailing all the additions.
The main of these is that the new fields detailed below are added to the forms of the Publications Manager, with the aim of preparing the integration functionality of this tool with the Public Register of Contracts, which is planned to be implemented during the summer of 2024 and from then on, those publications that contain all the required mandatory data can be sent automatically to the RPC.
New fields and validations:
Fields will initially be included in this release on a non-mandatory basis, to give time to the third-party file managers who integrate with the PSCP, to make the necessary adaptations to add these fields to their applications, until, become mandatory in order to allow the transfer of data to the RPC in an unattended manner, to the next version 3.7, which is expected to be implemented during the summer of 2024.
These changes and the new integration will impact the current integration web services available for both tools, detailed below:
