How to: Update VAT Transactions Data

  • Article

Before you create the first VAT transaction report, you should prepare the existing data by running the Update VAT Transaction Data report. You should also run this report if you have made changes to the setup based on new requirements from the tax authorities.

You can run the Update VAT Transaction Data report as a test before you change any data. When you have verified that the filters meet your expectations and the requirements of the tax authorities, you should run the report again to make the appropriate changes to data.

Warning

Before you run the Update VAT Transaction Data report, you should activate the change log in the Change Log Setup window. Also, you should enable logging for modifications to the Include in VAT Transac. Rep. field on the VAT Entry table.
