Data Selection

You can run the UK SEMDEC Interface program (R0018I4) for a single declaring company, or you can consolidate multiple companies to declare their information under a single company's VAT registration number.

Use data selection to list the company or companies for which you are declaring Intrastat information. If you list more than one company in the data selection, the system consolidates the statistical information for these companies on the report.

If you list only one company in the data selection, that company's name appears in the header of the report as the reporting company. If you list multiple companies in the data selection, you must enter the address book number of the declaring company in the processing options of the UK SEMDEC Interface program. If you list multiple companies in the data selection but do not complete the processing option, the system prints the name, address, and VAT registration number of company 00000 in the header of the report.

You must use matching data selection for Company on UK SEMDEC Interface and SEMDEC Interface - Intra EU Trade Statistics (R0018I41) programs. You should also use data selection on UK SEMDEC Interface to select sales transaction only. You do not need to include corresponding data selection for sales transactions on SEMDEC Interface - Intra EU Trade Statistics.
