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:

  1. In the Procesar listado intracomunitario (tccom7270m000) session, simulate generation of the sales listing. Enter the following details:

    • Select the Simular check box
    • Clear the Recalcular importes con tipos de cambio del declarante check box
    • Leave the Descripción field empty

    You must leave the Descripción 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.

  2. In the Maestro de declaración de impuestos (tfgld1620m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click Declaraciones de impuestos to start the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session.
  3. On the appropriate menu of the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session, click Seleccionar líneas de declaración de impuestos. LN automatically adds the VAT declaration lines to the VAT declaration.
  4. In the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click Mostrar archivo XML 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).
  5. If the VAT declaration HTML application detects errors in the manually entered fields, you can correct these on the Posiciones de impuestos por maestro de declaración de impuestos (tfgld1121m000) of the Maestro de declaración de impuestos (tfgld1620m000) session. You can correct errors in VAT numbers on the sales listing in the Listado de ventas (tccom7570m000) session.
  6. Repeat Steps 3 to 5 until the HTML application does not detect any blocking errors.
  7. To approve the VAT declaration, in the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click Aprobar.
  8. To transfer the VAT declaration, in the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click Transferir declaración de impuestos.
  9. To submit the VAT declaration, in the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click Enviar declaración de impuestos.
  10. Submit the created ASCII file to the tax authorities. You must have entered the file name and the path in the tax declaration master header in the Maestro de declaración de impuestos (tfgld1620m000) session.
  11. To reprint the VAT/ESL declaration without recalculating the declared amounts, in the Declaración de impuestos (tfgld1625m000) session, on the appropriate menu, click Mostrar archivo XML.
