EC VAT
If you trade within the European Union there are complex VAT rules you have to comply with regarding the importing and exporting of goods. These rules can be hard to follow and failure to comply can result in financial penalties. To help you, these complex rules are automatically built into Opera II EC VAT to make it easier for you to trade in Europe.
You can define and maintain the information to produce the EC Sales List (ESL) and Supplementary Declarations (SD), including country codes, modes of transport, terms of delivery, commodity codes and nature of transaction codes for Intrastat purposes. The EC Sales List can also generate an XML upload file for submission via the HMRC website.
If you are using foreign currency accounts, appropriate VAT rate codes for EC sales and purchases can also be set up. This module will then collect the information needed to produce the returns for trading with EU member countries.
