Sales Data
This section covers how Sales Data in TPD PRO is used to report annual product sales per Presentation and per country, typically required by EU Member States by March 31 each year.
What is Sales Data?
The Sales Data module in TPD PRO allows you to record and manage annual sales volumes for each product Presentation across different national markets. This information is required by many EU Member States as part of regulatory compliance under Article 5 and Article 20 of the Tobacco Products Directive (2014/40/EU).
How Sales Data Works in TPD PRO
The Sales Data section displays only the data that has already been entered for each Presentation
Sales data is recorded per Presentation, per market, and per calendar year
ℹ️ Most EU countries require sales data to be submitted by March 31st for the previous calendar year.
How to Add Sales Data
Sales data is added within the Presentation editing screen as follows:
Navigate to an existing Submission
Open the Presentations tab
Click Edit on the desired Presentation
Scroll to the Sales Data section
Enter:
Sales volume (e.g., total units sold)
Reference year (e.g., 2024)
Choose Sales File (statics of the sales) - to optimize workflow usually same file is submitted among all markets
Click Save
Submitting Sales Data to EU-CEG
Once Sales Data has been added:
Go to the Submission
Change the Submission Type to “Periodical Update”

✅ Submitting annual sales data as a Periodical Update ensures full compliance with EU-CEG requirements.
