Notes on KPEU/KPWO


Updating:
Each country is updated annually on a monthly rotating basis.

CC - Product classification codes:
Both KPEU and KPWO (and their sister-files) are now using the WF11
Kompass classification codes.

A complete list of WF11 classification code sequences is available
at:

http://support.dialog.com/searchaids/dialog/pdf/wf11_english.pdf

The same list is available in French, German, Italian, and Spanish;
change the language name at the end of the URL accordingly.

The same classification code is used even though companies are
involved in unrelated aspects of the same business. For example,
one company may be the distributor of a product, whereas another may
be the producer of that same product. Both will indicate the same
code, but the qualifier term will be different. You can make this
distinction by searching as e.g.:

1_: 4011125 WITH PRODUCER
2_: SHIPPING-AND-FORWARDING-AGENTS WITH SERVICE ADJ PROVIDER
3_: SPARKLING-WINES-TRADE WITH DISTRIBUTOR

Note that the qualifier terms appear in English in all of the
Kompass files - including those where the product classification
texts are otherwise in non-English languages.

Guides:
For a complete guide to to the Kompass files on DataStar search as
either BASE-KPEU or BASE-KPWO in the BASE database.
