The Sepher Ha’Agudah is a widely-popular, authoritative Code, cited extensively by R. Jacob HaLevi Moellin (Mahari”l) and R. Moses Isserles (Ram”a). It was published from a manuscript with corrections supplied by Joseph HaKohen (author of responsa She’erith Yoseph and brother-in-law of the Ram”a). The author of Sepher Ha’Agudah (d. 1348), was a disciple of R. Isaac of Dueren and served as rabbi in Cologne, Worms and Frankfurt. See EJ, Vol. II, cols. 585-6.
