New IUCLID version introduces an extended and more complete web interface
The new release, published on 4 May 2020, also completes all IUCLID inventories (for example: contacts, category, and literature references), the advanced search for datasets, the derived no-effect level (DNEL) calculator, the bulk copy of records, and the management of user preferences.
Watch our pre-recorded webinar on the scope of the latest IUCLID version on 12 May 2020.

REACH-IT updated with new features
Member and lead registrants of joint submissions are now receiving notifications for important events in the joint submission, for example, when there is an update to the lead dossier. The date of the latest successful lead dossier also now appears on the joint submission page and it is possible to see if a member has joined the joint submission with a security token issued by ECHA.
In addition, joint submissions have a status which can be either Active or Closed. The joint submission status is automatically changed to Closed if the lead registrant has not submitted a dossier to the joint submission within three months from when the joint submission was created. It will not be possible to join or submit a dossier to a closed joint submission, however, it will be possible to create a new joint submission for the same substance and registration type. Under certain circumstances, ECHA can close a joint submission if it is in the interest of the service.
