After ⚪ centuries will this puzzle make a good New Year puzzle?
Rules:
1. Normal Sudoku rules apply.
2. (Region-Sum-Product cages) Box borders devide a cage into segments, each having a sum, and the product of all sums is given. Digits may repeat in a cage if allowed by other rules.
3. (Kropki) A white dot indicates the difference of digits it separates (along the line, elsewhere the lines are cosmetic). A black dot indicates the ratio of digits it separates (in any order).
4. Two big circles contain the same digit.
Solution code: Column 9, top to bottom, 9 digits.

What does "01" mean in the white dots? Is it that the difference is 1, or that it can be either 0 or 1?
P.S.: Never mind. I assumed "either 0 or 1" and solved the puzzle.
Thanks for the nice puzzle.

Here 01 means 1, as in the date 01/01. Thank you for pointing this out.
