Use National Service Fiscal Documents for Brazil

Work with the recently introduced national system for service fiscal documents in Brazil. This feature provides an option to users who would like to use the new national system.

The national tax authority processes the national service fiscal document centrally compared to the current service fiscal document where each city has its own processing and document layout.

To use this option, you must create a new city inscription tax registration using a new Tax Registration Status.

Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Manage Standard Lookups and search for the Lookup Type ZX_REGISTRATIONS_STATUS.
  2. Add a new Lookup Code NATIONAL_SERVICE.
  3. Save and Close.
  4. Navigate to Manage Tax Registrations.
  5. Add a new tax registration for a legal reporting unit.
  6. Enter the required data and select the Tax Registration Status that you created.
  7. Save and Close.
    Note: The regular service fiscal document and the national service fiscal document system will not coexist. You must set the end date for the existing tax registration before you add a new tax registration If you are already using the regular service fiscal document for the same city, check the migration date with the city tax authority.
  8. Create a document sequence and fiscal document generation control for the national service fiscal document.

Results:

The steps to create a national service fiscal document are the same as that of a regular service fiscal document. Here are some processing differences:

  • The national service fiscal document has only a single line hence all receivables transaction lines will be consolidated in a single line in the fiscal document extract along with respective taxes. By default, the fiscal document line description will inherit the first transaction line description, but you can provide a more meaningful description at the Update Fiscal Attributes UI or in the Import Outbound Fiscal Attributes FBDI.
  • The system generates a fiscal document key (DPS Key) after it generates the fiscal document.
  • The tax authority returns a service fiscal document key with the fiscal document number upon approval of the fiscal document.

The national service fiscal document cancellation process follows the same steps as that of a regular service fiscal document cancellation process.
