Creating Inbound Deliveries for Electronic Invoice Generation for Brazil
To access the Brazil Localization SuiteApp documentation in Brazilian Portuguese (Português do Brasil), see Brazil Localization.
Inbound delivery transactions involve shipped goods returning to the company as inbound items in the inventory. Examples of inbound deliveries include:
-
Free samples
-
Goods sent for repair
-
Goods sent for industrialization
In Brazil, you must register every inbound delivery transaction on electronic invoices. Generating and certifying an electronic invoice notifies the tax authority about the delivery.
The default e-document category for inbound delivery transactions is electronic invoice for goods.
Inbound deliveries created before November 13, 2024 are now retired inbound delivery transactions. You can't create new retired inbound deliveries. You can still edit a retired inbound delivery and generate and certify e-documents from the retired transactions.
To access inbound deliveries created before November 13, 2024, go to Transactions > Purchases > Retired Inbound Delivery.
