In Brazil, the government requires that businesses maintain detailed information regarding all merchandise and associated taxes during the delivery process. The information accompanies shipments in the form of a document that is referred to as Nota Fiscal.
When you use JD Edwards World Sales Order Management system in Brazil, you must associate the applicable tax information with your sales orders and generate Nota Fiscal documents for the orders. In addition to including detailed tax and product information for the order, each Nota Fiscal document must be numbered within the numbering sequence assigned to the company by the Brazilian government.
