Usage

External Transactions Page

BNK_RCN_TRAN_UPDT

Enter external transaction information and VAT information.

See also Reconciling Externally Generated Transactions and the External Transactions Page.

Treasury VAT Processing Page

TRV_VAT_TRAN_SEC

Specify VAT transaction details for an external transaction.

Using the External Transactions page, you can add VAT-applicable external transactions, and specify VAT options for those transactions on the Treasury VAT Processing page. To access this page, you must complete the following fields on the External Transactions page:

  • Bank ID

  • Account # (account number)

  • Transaction amount

  • Transaction code

  • Transaction date

  • Transaction reference ID

  • Accounting template ID

See External Transactions Page.

When you click the VAT link, the system verifies that the business unit is VAT enabled, the Tran Code (transaction code) is Fee, and a VAT applicable accounting template is selected. (The system determines the default business unit and bank branch information for VAT by the specified bank account number, and uses this information to populate the Business Unit field on the External Transactions page.) The Treasury VAT Processing page displays only if these conditions are met.

The Treasury VAT Processing page displays VAT Defaults in descending order of impact. When you change multiple VAT defaults and click the Adjust Affected VAT Defaults button, specific fields will or will not be adjusted. You should work top-down, clicking Adjust Affected VAT Defaults at the appropriate time(s) to avoid adjustments to VAT Defaults that you overrode but not did not memorize.

For example, if you override Supplier Registration Country and click Adjust Affected VAT Defaults, the system adjusts all VAT Defaults except Supplier Registration Country and Supplier Registration ID. Then you override Place of Supply Driver and click Adjust Affected VAT Defaults again. The system adjusts all VAT Defaults except Service Type, Place of Supply Driver, Supplier Registration Country, and Supplier Registration ID.

Use the Treasury VAT Processing page (TRV_VAT_TRAN_SEC) to specify VAT transaction details for an external transaction.

Note: You can edit fields on this page only if the accounting entry has not been reconciled.

Field or Control

Description

IBAN

Displays the international bank account number (IBAN) in addition to the local, domestic bank account number when the country has been set up to display the IBAN on the IBAN Formats Page.

Expanding and Collapsing Sections

To manage your VAT data more efficiently, you can expand and collapse sections on this VAT page.

Field or Control

Description

Expand All Sections

Click the expand button to scroll to and access every section on the page. You can also expand one or more sections by clicking the arrow next to the section's name.

Collapse All Sections

Click to collapse all sections displaying only the header information. If you expand one or more sections, you can click the arrow next to the section's name to collapse the section.

Drivers

Field or Control

Description

Physical Nature

Displays Services, as all Treasury VAT processing is only performed on services.

Bank Location Country

Displays the country in which the bank is located. The default value is the country that you specified for the bank branch location. This is analogous to the Ship From country.

Registrations

Field or Control

Description

Reporting Country

Displays the VAT registration country of the beneficiary (buyer) of the service. The VAT defaulting routine retrieves the country value from the VAT entity, as either the service country, the business unit location country, or the country set as the home country.

Defaulting State

Specify a state within the Reporting Country. If the Reporting Country tracks VAT by state, then VAT default values may be defined at the state level.

Bank Registration Country

Displays the VAT registration country of the provider (seller) of the service—the registration country of the bank branch. The default value comes from the bank branch.

Bank Registration ID

Displays both the country code and VAT registration number.

The two-character country code for the VAT registration country is display only. In addition to the three-character code (for example, Bank's Country) this two-character code is often required as part of the actual registration ID.

The system derives the default VAT registration ID number from the applicable bank branch. You can override this number. However, PeopleCode validation routines ensure the number is valid according to country-specific checksum algorithms.

Exception Type

Select from the following:

  • Exonerated: Select if the VAT entity is permanently excused from paying VAT.

  • None:

  • Suspended: Select if the VAT entity is temporarily excused from paying VAT.

Certificate ID

Enter the VAT certificate ID number issued by certain governments to show proof of an exception.

VAT Controls

Field or Control

Description

Calculation Type

Indicates whether the amount that you enter on a transaction is Inclusive (default value) of the VAT or Exclusive. If Exclusive is selected, the system calculates the VAT charge and adds it to the transaction amount. However, if the calculation type is Exclusive, and if you change the VAT amount on the detail transaction, the system changes the transaction amount according to the calculation type. The system retrieves the field value using the VAT default hierarchy, but you can override it.

Rounding Rule

Specify the rule you want to use:

  • Nat Rnd (natural rounding): Amounts are rounded normally (up or down) to the precision specified for the currency code. For example, for a currency defined with two decimal places, 157.4659 would round up to 157.47, but 157.4649 would round down to 157.46.

  • Up: Rounds up and limits the rounding precision to one additional decimal place. For example, for a currency defined with two decimal places, 157.4610 would round up to 157.47, but 157.4609 rounds to 157.46.

  • Down: Rounds down.

The VAT rounding rule you specify affects the currency numbers stored in the database as well as how currency numbers print on the reports. The VAT rounding rule affects only VAT amounts.

Allocate Non-Recoverable VAT

If selected, indicates that the system allocates nonrecoverable VAT using ChartField Inheritance logic.

Prorate Non-Recoverable VAT

If selected, indicates that the system records nonrecoverable VAT to an expense account.

Use Type

Defaults from the VAT defaulting hierarchy. You can override the values in this field. The field is mandatory when Applicability is set to Taxable.

Recovery Source

Options specified on the VAT Default Setup page at the business unit level determine if you can edit this field.

  • If the displayed value is Automatic, this VAT percentage is automatically calculated by the system. You can not override this value.

  • If Manual, you can edit the Recovery Percent field in the Calculations group box.

Rebate Source

Options specified on the VAT Default Setup page at the business unit level determine if you can edit this field.

  • If the displayed value is Automatic, this VAT percentage is automatically calculated by the system. You can not override this value.

  • If Manual, you can edit the Rebate Percent field in the Calculations group box.

See Treasury - VAT Options Page.

VAT Treatments

Field or Control

Description

Place of Supply Country

Displays the country that is the supplier of record for the service.

State

Select a state within the defined Place of Supply Country. If the Place of Supply Country tracks VAT by state, then VAT default values may be defined at the state level.

Treatment

VAT treatment determines which default values should be applied, and also controls, to some extent, the availability of some VAT-related fields.

See VAT Defaults.

Select from the following:

  • Domestic Service Purchase

  • EU Service Purchase

  • Outside Scope

  • Self-Assess Service Import

VAT Details

Field or Control

Description

Applicability

See Taxable Status and VAT Rates.

  • Exempt

  • Exonerated

  • N/A

  • Outside

  • Suspend

  • Taxable

  • VAT Only

VAT Code

Displays the default value derived from the appropriate VAT defaulting hierarchy depending on the defined Treatment and/or defined Applicability. You can override the values in this field. When you click the Recalculate button, the system uses the VAT defaulting hierarchy to update fields in the Calculations group box.

The default comes from the accounting template. You can edit this field.

Select this option to record and report one or more types of output VAT (Output, Output Intermediate, Output for Purchases) on transactions containing this VAT driver value.

Transaction Type

See VAT Reporting and Accounting.

See Reviewing VAT Field Descriptions by VAT Driver.

See Defining VAT Transaction Types.

Adjust or Reset VAT Defaults

Adjusting or resetting VAT defaults will only affect the fields within this VAT Defaults group box:

  • Adjust Affected VAT Defaults

    If you changed any fields on this page, these changes may impact VAT defaults on this page. For accuracy and consistency, click this button if you want the system to adjust the VAT defaults that are affected by your changes. All changes you have made to VAT Defaults on this page that affect other VAT Defaults on this page will be retained.

    Click the i (information) button to list the fields that will be adjusted.

    Note: PeopleSoft recommends that you always click the Adjust Affected VAT Defaults button after changing any defaults on the VAT page.

  • Levels

    The levels affected when you click the Reset All VAT Defaults button may be different depending the application you are working with and the type of VAT page you are working on.

    Select the level:

    • All lower levels

      Select this field value to reset all VAT defaults at lower levels for this page.

      Note: Reset completely redetermines the VAT defaults. This does not necessarily mean they will be reset to their original values. For example, the user may not have changed any VAT default values, but if a VAT driver field was changed, pressing Reset will redetermine all defaults based on the new driver value.

    • This and all lower levels

      Select this field value to reset all VAT defaults on this VAT page and at any lower levels of this page.

    • This level only

      Select this field value to reset all VAT defaults on this VAT page.

  • Reset All VAT Defaults

    Click this button if you want the system to reset the VAT defaults based the Levels value you selected. Any changes you have previously made to VAT defaults will be lost.
