Specifies details about Intrastat reporting. All EU businesses must report their trade with other EU countries/regions.

You can either enter the entries in the window yourself, or you can have the program import them automatically by clicking Actions, Get Entries in the intrastat journal window. When you do this, the program imports only entries from the Item Ledger Entry table. 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 enter these entries yourself.

In order for item entries to contain the necessary information when the program imports them to the intrastat journal line, you must have entered that information in the following tables:

Note
You must fill in these tables before you begin to post.

Before you can use the Intrastat Journal window, you must decide which intrastat journal templates and batches you will use. You do this in the Intrastat Jnl. Template and Intrastat Jnl. Batch windows.

In the Intrastat Journal Templates, you can create several templates if you need several different forms. Because Intrastat is reported monthly, you must create 12 intrastat journals based on the same template. You set up the names of these 12 journals in the Intrastat Jnl. Batches window.

The Intrastat information is entered in the Intrastat Journal window. When you have retrieved the information to the intrastat journal lines, you can print a report or a file to the tax and customs authorities.
