5 Work with Belgium VAT Reports

This chapter contains these topics:

5.1 Working with Belgium VAT Reports

The Minister of Finance in Belgium requires each company to present the following VAT reports:

  • 625 Monthly VAT

  • Intracommunity Statement n° 723

  • Yearly Clients List N° 725

You use the Generic VAT Reports program (P700001) to generate the required reports. You must set up a version of the report for each report that you use, and must set up processing options and spooled file export parameters for each version.

See "Generic VAT Reports" in the JD Edwards World Tax Reference Guide and Section 3.5, "Setting Up Report Versions,".

The system generates the reports in the XML format required by the government. You submit the XML files according to the government requirements.

Working with Belgium VAT reports consists of the following tasks:

  • Updating the XML Superdata Set.

    Run the processes to update all of your VAT transactions, such as processing invoices and receipts.

  • Generating the reports.

    Generate the 625 Monthly VAT report to produce a list of customers and a list of suppliers for your transactions that include VAT.

    Generate the Intracommunity Statement n° 723 to produce a report that includes VAT amounts for all customers who are located in EU member countries, except Belgium.

    Generate the Yearly Clients List N° 725 to produce a report that includes a list of your clients.

  • Reviewing and correcting records.

  • Reprocessing records if necessary.

From Generic VAT Reports Generation (G74B00), choose XML VAT Generic Report 625

The Belgian Tax Authorities require monthly VAT reports on the detail of the VAT amounts that are declared on all of the customer invoices, and for all invoices for suppliers. You generate one report for customers and another report for suppliers. All customers and suppliers must be included on the reports, including Belgian customers and suppliers, European Union (EU) member customers and suppliers, and non-EU customers and suppliers.

This image shows an example of the monthly 625 VAT report:

The system provides version ZJDE0001 in the Generic VAT Reports (P700001) for the Monthly 625 VAT report. You can use version ZJDE0001, or create a version that is based on the ZJDE0001 version.

5.2.1 Processing Options

You must set up the processing options in the Belgium VAT Report program (P700001BE) for the same version that you run for the Generic VAT Reports program (P700001). For example, if you create and run a version of the Generic VAT Reports program named VAT625, then you must create a version named VAT625 in the Belgium VAT Report program (P700001BE) and set up the processing options in the VAT625 version. When you execute the VAT625 version of the Generic VAT Report program, the system uses the processing options in the corresponding version (VAT625) of the Belgium VAT Report program. If you do not set up a corresponding version for the Belgium VAT Report program, then the system uses version ZJDE0001.

See Chapter 6, "VAT Requirements Processing Options".

Businesses can file the electronic declaration using the INTERVAT application available on the web site, http://www.minfin.fgov.be. The web site, managed and maintained by the Belgian Tax Authorities, enables businesses to either manually enter the required VAT data in a specific web page or to upload an XML file with the necessary information. If uploading an XML file, businesses must use the official XSD scheme published by the Belgian Tax Authorities that can be downloaded from the same web site.

The system provides version ZJDE0003 in the Generic VAT Reports (P700001) for the Yearly Clients List n° 725 report. You can use version ZJDE0003, or create a version that is based on the ZJDE0003 version.
