 Fields in the Line Item Locate this document in the navigation structure

There are four fields in the line item which enable VAT on transactions within the European Single Market to be displayed correctly. These fields are currently only used for business transactions with customers. These are the fields:

  • Tax number

    This is the VAT registration number of the customer.

  • Reporting country

    This is the country to which the goods are delivered and therefore where the customer acquired a VAT registration number. This field is ready for input, so that the relevant VAT registration number can be called up automatically from the customer master record. The reporting country is, however, not stored in the document.

  • Delivering country

    This is the country from which the delivery is made; the system automatically takes the country of the company code as the delivering country. The contents of this field are not displayed in the document and cannot therefore be changed.

  • EU triangular deals

    This indicator is necessary so that triangular deals can be displayed separately in the EC sales list.
