SII – AEAT Response
To access the Spain Localization SuiteApp documentation in Spanish of Spain (español de España), see Spain Localization.
After you generate your SII report and manually submit it to the AEAT online portal, you are provided with a downloadable XML file as a response from AEAT regarding your submission. The Spain Localization SuiteApp provides you with a platform where you can upload this response and let the system interpret it for you.
After the upload, the reporting status of transactions in the report is visible in the SII Reporting Submission Status field on the SII Reporting subtab of the transaction record. For more information about fields on this subtab, see SII – Transaction Record Information.

SII – Uploading AEAT Response Files
The analysis of the AEAT response regarding your SII submissions is essential to interpreting your reports and being aware of potential required corrections and resubmissions. Note the following important instructions regarding the file upload:
-
You can only upload AEAT response files related to the subsidiaries and transactions assigned to your user account or a role.
If you are unsure which subsidiaries and transactions are assigned to you, contact your administrator. To avoid potential problems, it is best if the same user account or a role generates your SII reports and uploads their corresponding AEAT response files.
-
You should only upload XML files that contain one subsidiary and were generated by the AEAT.
-
Do not manually edit the XML files that you receive from AEAT. If you alter these files, the system may display an incorrect reporting status or fail to recognize NetSuite transactions.
-
You can only upload one XML response file at a time. After the upload, you will see the details of your transactions on one or both tabs on the page. For more information, see AEAT Submissions Information. Additionally, you will receive an email notification regarding your upload.
To upload your AEAT response file:
-
Go to Reports > Spain Reports > SII – AEAT Response.
-
On the SII – AEAT Response page, locate the Upload AEAT Response subtab.
-
Choose or drag-and-drop the XML file containing the AEAT response. You can upload only one XML at a time.
-
Click Update.
AEAT Submissions Information
After you upload your AEAT response XML files, the Spain Localization SuiteApp recognizes one of the following reporting status types:
-
Correct
-
Partially Correct
-
Rejected
-
Rejected After Resubmission
For more information, see SII Reporting Submission Status Types.
If your submission was marked Partially Correct, Rejected, or Rejected After Resubmission, it is listed in a table on the Invalid Submissions tab. In addition to the reporting status, the table details the report type and information about the transaction and customer/vendor related to your submission. For more information about the type of error in your submission, hover over the information icon next to the status type in the Reporting Status table column.
After you address the error message by making any necessary updates to your transactions, generate the SII report again. On the Country Tax Reports page:
-
Select Registration report types if AEAT marked your report as Rejected. Such report will also include transactions with the Pending Submission status, for which the SII was not yet reported.
-
Select Correction report types if AEAT marked your report as Partially Correct or Rejected After Resubmission, or if you manually changed the status of a transaction to Pending Correction.
For more information about VAT report generation, see Generating Spain VAT Reports in the Spain Localization SuiteApp.
If your submission was marked Correct, it is listed in a table on the Log History tab along with all other response submissions.
The reporting status of your transactions is also visible in the SII Reporting Submission Status field on the SII Reporting subtab of the transaction record. For more information about fields on this subtab, see SII – Transaction Record Information.
Both the Invalid Submissions and Log History tabs allow you to filter your response submissions based on the following parameters:
-
Subsidiary
This filter sources the Legal Name field of the subsidiary. If the legal name is not defined, the value is sourced from the Name field.
-
Submission Type
-
Reporting Status
-
Customer/Vendor
-
Transaction Number
The filtered results are then displayed in tables on these respective tabs.
Beware that if you edit transaction details, these updates will also be reflected in these tables. Such updates can result in disparities between details on the SII – AEAT Response page and details in the XML file.
