An administrator opens the label for each accommodation. This is a deliberate choice: a label process involves guided work, and a file that stalls halfway through helps no one.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you see without an open process<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will see the module, but without criteria, scores, or numbers. Instead, you&#8217;ll find an explanation about the label and two buttons: <strong>Request guidance<\/strong> and a link to the <a href=\"https:\/\/fairhospitality.coop\/en\/fairhospitality-toolset-user-guide\/does-a-label-fit-you-if-so-which-one\/\">selection tool<\/a> if you&#8217;re not yet sure if this label is right for you.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is by design. As long as the process isn&#8217;t open, a score would give you the wrong impression: the profile check hasn&#8217;t happened, your documents haven&#8217;t been read, and no one has agreed with you on which year you are tackling.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Requesting guidance<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Click on <strong>Request guidance<\/strong>. Three things then happen: your request is saved, a message is sent to us, and the request is added to your accommodation&#8217;s history. You can also withdraw it using <strong>Withdraw request<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What happens next depends on the conversation, not the software. A request is not an automatic approval.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What opens up<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As soon as an administrator enables the label, the full dashboard appears: the profile check, the seven theme cards, the score, the price indication, and the submission package. The criteria themselves come from the shared catalog, so you don&#8217;t start from scratch: everything the module can pull from your footprint and documents is already there.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Labels you already have<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you already have a label, it belongs in your core data under <strong>Previously obtained labels<\/strong>, including the start year. The module uses this to determine if your application is a first-time application or a renewal, so it won&#8217;t ask that question again in the wizard. On the dashboard, this is shown as <em>First application \u2014 no EU Ecolabel held yet<\/em> or <em>Renewal \u2014 EU Ecolabel already held<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group fh-kader fh-kader--let\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Declaring that you hold a label is not the same as an open process. The first is your declaration; the second is guidance that we open up. Declaring a label does not automatically grant access to the wizard.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The certification module works by invitation.
