To prepare the electronic VAT and European Sales Listing declaration
This functionality is specific for Portugal.
To prepare the combined tax and sales listing declaration, take the following steps:
- 
               
In the Zusammenfassende Meldung verarbeiten (tccom7270m000) session, simulate generation of the sales listing. Enter the following details:
- Select the Simulation check box
 - Clear the Beträge mit Wechselkursen des Erklärenden neu berechnen check box
 - Leave the Bezeichnung field empty
 
You must leave the Bezeichnung field empty because otherwise, LN recalculates the sales listing amounts, which can cause a mismatch with the net amounts declared for intra-community sales in the VAT declaration part. This can result in a blocking error.
 - In the Steuererklärungsvorlage (tfgld1620m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click to start the USt-Erklärung (tfgld1625m000) session.
 - On the appropriate menu of the USt-Erklärung (tfgld1625m000) session, click . LN automatically adds the VAT declaration lines to the VAT declaration.
 - In the USt-Erklärung (tfgld1625m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click to create a non-final VAT declaration ASCII file. The ASCII file is displayed in a Microsoft Notepad window. Save the file, and then open the same file in the Portuguese VAT declaration HTML application (IVA.html).
 - If the VAT declaration HTML application detects errors in the manually entered fields, you can correct these on the USt-Positionen nach Steuererklärungsvorlage (tfgld1121m000) of the Steuererklärungsvorlage (tfgld1620m000) session. You can correct errors in VAT numbers on the sales listing in the Zusammenfassende Meldung (VK-Liste) (tccom7570m000) session.
