Question about oil

Well the thing is i had my oil changed at 5000km, just to be sure.

I went to a shop an bought castrol 0w30 oil because this is what bmw uses. Then i went to a bmw service place they changed the oil and everything is fine. But the oil i bought was castrol 0w30 longlife2 volkswagen special approval, and it does not meet the standards bmw set for their oils. I asked about this in the shop were i bought the oil and they said there is no diffrence between slx for vw and slx for bmw. So what should i do? The oil i basically the same slx both 0w30 just that the other one has vw special approval which i put in my car.
