26 Italian IVA Activities

This chapter contains these topics:

26.1 About IVA Activities

Generally, the tax activities for Italy are the same as those for other countries. The IVA tax calculations (VAT calculations), automatic accounting instructions, general ledger accounting, and so on are the same.

Activities for Italy and those for other countries differ because Italian tax authorities require annual tax reporting for suppliers, customers, and customs authorities. The differences are described in detail later in this chapter and summarized below.

  • You must build the Annual IVA file (F00900). This file summarizes the detailed tax information in the Tax Work file (F0018) and is necessary for the annual IVA reports.

  • Optional. You can add and change information in F00900 with the Annual IVA File Revision screen.

  • Optional. You can add and change information for tapes with the Address Book Additional Information screen. You can submit either tapes or preprinted IVA forms to the tax authorities on an annual basis.

26.2 Annual IVA File Build (P00911)

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 Italian IVA Processing

From the Italian IVA Processing menu (G00213), choose Annual IVA File Build or Annual IVA File Revisions

This DREAM Writer program uses information from the Tax Work file (F0018) and summarizes it by supplier, customer, and customs authority. For each supplier, customer, and customs authority, the program does the following:

  • Creates a record with the total number of invoices or vouchers, the total tax amount, total taxable, and total non-taxable. For suppliers, the program also includes the total non-taxable "8 comma 2."

  • Uses user defined codes (system 00, type IV) to differentiate types of information. It assigns 1 to customer records, 2 to supplier records, and 5 to customs authority records.

26.2.1 Processing Options

The first processing option controls whether you process customer transactions or supplier and customs authority transactions. If you need to process all transactions, run this program twice - once for customers and once for suppliers and customs authorities.

The second option controls whether you clear previous transactions from F00900. Generally, you will clear the file when you begin a new fiscal year. If you run this program several times in a fiscal year, do not clear the file. The program adds amounts to the previous amounts in F00900.

26.3 Annual IVA File Revisions (P00900)

You can use the Annual IVA File Revision program to view, add, change, and delete information in the Annual IVA file (F00900).

If you convert to the JD Edwards World software in the middle of a year, you can use the Annual IVA File Revision program to manually enter/update tax information in F00900.

After you make the revisions, you can perform standard processing.

26.4.2 Creating File for Tape

This DREAM writer program has five processing options. They identify the current year for processing, address book information, and supplier (or customer) master information. For example, they indicate which line in the address book is used for the continuation of the name and address, the person/corporate code, and tape density. Tape density can be 800, 1600, or 6250 BPI.

26.4.3 Coping File to Tape

After you create a file, you can copy the file to the tape. This screen has two fields. One identifies tape density and the second identifies the tape drive. The tape density you specify on this screen must match the density you specified earlier when you created the file.

Note:

Before you use this screen, insert a tape in the tape drive.

26.5 A/P Year-End Report

Each year, Italian companies print IVA supplier totals on the Supplier IVA Form (P00917). The information on this form must be summarized. This summary must include the tax identification number of the supplier. When two customers have the same tax identification number, that is, when a parent company has several subsidiaries, you must enter all addresses on the same supplier record.

Other required information on the summary includes:

  • The supplier name (address book line #1 or the parent and the address book line from P.O. #2)

  • The street (address book line from P.O. #3)

  • The postal code

  • The city (the last non-blank address book line)

  • The province

  • The tax identification number

  • The total taxable amount of vouchers for the current year

  • The total taxable amount of vouchers for the previous year

  • The total tax amount of vouchers for the current year

  • The total tax amount of vouchers for the previous year

  • The total non-taxable amount of vouchers for the current year

  • The total non-taxable amount of vouchers for the previous year
