This chapter includes the following topic:

Important:

The Agenzia delle Entrate (Italian Tax Authority) occasionally changes the requirements for generating the yearly list and the black list reports. You should verify that you have the most current information about generating these reports before you run the process to generate these reports.

If you used the JD Edwards World software for Italy to process the yearly list and the black list reports prior to November, 2013, you should note:

  • These programs are no longer used:

    • Workfile Generation (P74Y0100)

    • Flat File Generation (P74Y0200)

    • Customer Report (P74Y0501)

    • Suppliers Report (P74Y0502)

    • Workfile Generation (P74Y0012)

    • Flat File Generation (P74Y0014)

  • The setup for contracts and contract relationships is not required for reporting beginning in November, 2013.

  • The values required in the Special Handling Code field of the Document Type - Annual Report (74Y/DT) UDC are changed. You must enter the changes for this UDC table before generating the reports.

    See Section 36.1.4, "Document Type (74Y/DT)"

  • The system uses UDC 74Y/IV instead of UDC 00/IV to determine the classification of tax rate/areas.

    See Section 36.1.5, "Vat Codes (74Y/IV)"

35.1 Italy Multi-Purpose VAT Communication

The Agenzia delle Entrate (Italian Tax Authorities) published regulations for the Multi-Purpose VAT Communication relevant transactions, which is also known as Nuovo Spesometro. The regulations require that you periodically report information on sales and purchase transactions to the Italian government.

You include the transaction information that you must report in these declarations, which you submit in an electronic file:

  • Yearly List (Spesometro)

  • Black List Declaration

  • San Marino Purchases Declaration

You use the Multi-Purpose VAT Communications to submit each of the declarations. In the JD Edwards World software for Italy, you run the IYL Elect. Communications -TXT Generator program (P74Y0047) to generate the Multi-Purpose VAT Communication. The program populates different sections for the communication based on which declaration you choose to generate. For example, if you choose to generate the Black List Declaration, the program generates the Multi-Purpose VAT Communication files and populates only the sections of multi-purpose communication that are required for reporting transactions for black list countries.

When you run the ITY Elect. Communications -TXT Generator program, the system populates the Electronic Italy Yearly List - WF - Summary (T74Y0047) and Electronic Italy Yearly List - WF - Detail files (T74Y0049). The system uses the data in these worktables to generate the IYL Electronic Communications - Summary and Detail (R74Y0049) audit report. You can use this reports to review your data before you generate the files that you need to submit for tax reporting. The process also prints a report (R74Y0049T), which includes the names of the members added to the TXT (File F74Y0050).

After you review the audit reports, you can set a processing option and run the ITY Elect. Communications -TXT Generator program again to generate records for a text file (F74Y0050). The text file is the Multi-Purpose VAT Communication that you must submit to the tax authorities. You then use your usual process to work with the text files and copy the files to the media that you use to submit the electronic files.

The electronic file is composed of the following record types:

Record Type Comments
A: Header Record This record type is mandatory and includes:
  • The identification of the submitter.

  • Declaration on multiple transmissions.

    If the file size exceeds the value that you enter in a processing option, the system splits the file and completes a field in the record type A to indicate the number of files.

B: First party and transmission information record This record type is mandatory and includes:
  • Identification and Tax Id of the Tax Payer – Company.

  • Type of Upload.

  • Communication Format (Summary or Detailed).

  • Sections Filled.

  • Reporting Year / Month.

C: Records containing transactions data transmitted in summary transmission mode The system populates the Electronic Italy Yearly List - WF - Summary (T74Y0047) and then sections and fields in record type C when you set the Detailed or Summarized processing option to generate summary records. The system populates different sections in record type C depending on whether you specify to generate the Yearly List (Spesometro) or Black List Declaration. See Section 35.1.1, "Sections in Record Type C"

Record type C and record type D are mutually exclusive. If you specify summary as the mode, then the system populates the sections in record type C and does not populate the sections in record type D. If you specify detailed as the transmission mode, then the system populates the sections in record type D and does not populate the sections in record type C.

If you set the Type of Upload processing option to generate a cancellation, the IYL Elec. Communications - TXT Generator program does not populate record type C.

D: Records containing transactions data transmitted in detailed transmission mode The system populates the Electronic Italy Yearly List - WF - Detail (T74Y0049) and then sections and fields in record type D when you set the Detailed or Summarized processing option to generate detail records. The system populates different sections in record type D depending on whether you specify to generate the San Marino Purchases Declaration or the Yearly List (Spesometro). See Section 35.1.2, "Sections in Record Type D"

Record type C and record type D are mutually exclusive. If you specify detailed as the mode, then the system populates the sections in record type D and does not populate the sections in record type C. If you specify summary as the transmission mode, then the system populates the sections in record type C and does not populate the sections in record type D

If you set the Type of Upload processing option to generate a cancellation, the IYL Elec. Communications - TXT Generator program does not populate record type D.

E: Counters record In addition to header information such as the responsible company's tax ID, this record includes counters for the records in each of the sections in record types C and D. This record is mandatory.
Z: Footer record This record includes the number of records in record type B, C, D, and E. This record is mandatory.

35.1.1 Sections in Record Type C
