  • Tax codes
  • Document totals
  • Journals
  • Vouchers
  • Voucher lines
  • Sales invoices

Netherlands specifics

The XML Audit File Financieel (XAF File) is a standard to use to create an XML file. The XAF file contains information from the financial ledger and is required by the Dutch tax authority. The file contains core data, opening balances, and transactions that have occurred in a select period within the accounting year.

How Infor meets this requirement

The successful creation of transactions, such as orders, receipts, invoices, and payments must be journalized and posted. The required BODs are triggered to LSP.

To generate the audit files successfully, maintenance setup must be done in LSP.

Use this Localization Services Platform (LSP) setup to test this requirement:

  • For AE maintenance identifiers, specify Tax Registration Identification.
    Field Test setup
    Company index NL+ 9 digits + B + 2 digits, for example, NL999999999B99
    Country identification number 9 digits, for example, 123456789
  • For statutory auiditing translation maintenance
    Field Test setup
    Period translations mapping Period 01 to 12
    VAT code mapping 0% Tax and Tax 21%

See the Infor Localization Services Platform User Guide.

The XAF eAuditing format is supported in FSM–Localization integration.
