Transaction Type Table

  • Article

Specifies information which all EU businesses must report for their trade with other EU countries/regions for Intrastat reporting.

You can use the Intrastat Jnl. Line window for this reporting. You can either put the entries in the window yourself, or you can have the program import them automatically by running the Get Item Ledger Entries batch job from the Intrastat journal windows. When you do this, the program imports only entries from the Item Ledger Entry window. If you have some G/L entries that should be included in the Intrastat report (for example purchase of office equipment for your own use from another EU country/region), you must put these entries in yourself.

The completed intrastat journal can either be written to a diskette or printed as a report.

In order for item entries to contain the necessary information when the program imports them to the intrastat journal line, you must have entered the information about the transaction type in the Transaction Types window.

Each country/region has a set of codes for transaction types that are defined in connection with Intrastat. For example, there might be codes for:

  • Ordinary purchase/sale.

  • Exchange of returned goods.

  • Exchange of non-returned goods.

It is a good idea to set up all the codes that are used in your country/region in the Transaction Types window. When you have set up the codes, enter them in the Transaction Type field on purchase and sales headers or in the same field on the individual purchase and sales lines as you fill out invoices.

If you want to use the Get Item Ledger Entries batch job, you must also fill in the Countries/Regions, Tariff Numbers, and Transport Methods windows.
