36.1 About European Union Tax Reports

JD Edwards World uses to two primary reports for EU tax reporting:

  • The EU Sales Listing report

  • The Intrastat Reports

The EU Sales Listing report lists the customer by VAT number, country of destination, and the total amount in local currency.

The Intrastat Reports are statistical reports that list details about product dispatches and arrivals among EU countries.

36.1.1 Before you Begin

Before you generate the EU Sales Listing report or Intrastat reports, verify the following:

36.2 EU Sales Listing (P0018S)

Navigation

From the Master Directory menu (G), type 29

From the General Systems menu (G00), choose Tax Processing & Reporting

From the Tax Processing & Reporting menu (G0021), choose EU VAT Processing

From the EU VAT Processing menu (G00211), choose EU Sales Listing

The report lists the customer by VAT number, country of destination, and the total amount in local currency.

Some countries require you to submit the EU Sales Listing report quarterly if your company exceeds the threshold of intra-community trade as defined by each country's tax authority.

  • You must submit the report if you are registered for VAT in an EU country and you:

  • Make supplies of goods to a person registered for VAT in another EU country

  • Send goods to a person registered for VAT in another EU country for process

  • Return goods after processing them to a person registered for VAT in another EU country

  • Transfer your goods from your EU country to another EU country in the course of your business.

Note:

Ensure that each customer has a VAT registration number and a country code. The processing options in the post program are set to automatically update the Tax Work file (F0018).

From the General Systems menu (G00), choose Tax Processing & Reporting

From the Tax Processing & Reporting menu (G0021), choose EU VAT Processing

From the EU VAT Processing menu (G00211), choose any of the following: EU Intrastat Report, Belgian Format Intrastat, French Format Intrastat, German Format Intrastat, or U.K. Format Intrastat or Austrian Format Intrastat

The Intrastat Reports are statistical reports that list details about product dispatches and arrivals among EU countries. The reports list information in the Tax Work file (F0018) and Extra Tax File Adjustments file (F0018T).

You submit these reports to the customs authorities on a monthly basis if your company exceeds the intra-community trade limits set in your country.

Although the information that is required to appear on the Intrastat report is common for most all European Union members, report formats vary from country to country. JD Edwards World base software includes Intrastat report formats for the following countries:

  • Belgium

  • France

  • Germany

  • United Kingdom

  • Austria

To print an Intrastat report for a country with different country-specific format requirements, such as Italy, you must create a custom World Writer report or use a specialized software package.

The reports list information in the Tax Work file (F0018) and Extra Tax File Adjustments file (F0018T).

Note:

You can extract information for the reports from existing databases and move it to the Extra Tax File Adjustments file (F0018T) using two batch programs: The Update Extra Tax File-Sales updates F0018T with information from the Sales Order Detail file (F4211) and The Update Extra Tax File-Purchases updates F0018T with information from the Purchase Order Receiver file (F43121). You can manually enter information on the Direct Extra Tax File Adjustment screen.

Note: You maintain commodity codes on the Branch/Plant Item Information screen (on menu A411). From that screen, press F5 to access the Branch/Plant Class Codes screen and view the commodity codes.

Country Orig or Destn (Country of Origin or Destination/Dispatch) User defined code (system 00, type CN) that identifies the EU country where goods originated. For sales orders, this is the country code linked to the ship-to address. For purchase orders, this is the country code linked to the address of the supplier and is from the Purchase Order Receiver file (F43121).

You specify information for this field in the processing options. Some codes (system 41, type S1 to S5) are for sales orders. Others (system 41, type P1 to P5) are for purchase orders.
Cond of Tran (Conditions of Transport) User defined code (system 42, type FR) that identifies freight information. The Description-2 field, positions 1 to 3, identifies the conditions of transport and how freight is to be paid. For more information, see Section 13.3, "Modify Commodity Codes for EU") and Section 13.8, "Example for Conditions of Transport and Modes of Transport."

Values in local currency Number that identifies the value of the transaction in local currency. This is the invoice price excluding VAT.

For dispatches and sales, this is the price of the item multiplied by the quantity. The unit of measure is also considered for this calculation. For example, the item may be priced by the case but you sold one item. The system calculates the correct taxable value for the sales order line.

For purchasing, this information is from the Match Voucher to Open Receipt screen where the value of the arrival is registered. Conversion to local currency of foreign currency values is at the transaction rate.

Statistical Value Number that identifies the value of the dispatch or arrival that estimates the freight and insurance costs incurred in that country. In France, for example, the statistical value of a dispatch is the cost of freight and insurance up to the port of exit of the country. This is usually a nominal value. This field is required for some countries.

You specify this information with the Direct Extra Tax File Adjustment screen described in the chapter Chapter 25, "European Union Activities." The batch programs do not upload this information from the Sales Order and Procurement Management systems.
