Use

In this activity, you can define the codes that classify the nature of the goods acquired and services supplied, for each trip country.

You need the codes, as well as other data, for the refund of tax on sales/purchases or value added tax (VAT) that your employees have paid while on business trips abroad. For EU member states, the use of these codes is governed by the COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 2008/9/EC of 12 February 2008 that stipulates detailed rules for the refund of value added tax, Article 9, paragraph 1.

We recommend that you set the Description of VAT Refund Code indicator for goods acquired and services supplied that have code Other (010). If you set this indicator, when the system checks the completeness of the trip receipt it looks to see if the VAT details of the receipt contain an additional description of the goods acquired or services supplied. This additional description is stipulated in the specified EU directive.

In the Customizing activity Define Country-Dependent Default Values for Expense Types, you can define the codes as default values for each country and expense type.

Requirements

Recommendation

We recommend that you set the end date of the validity period for the entries to the date 12/31/9999 for the following reasons:

  • The end date can not be changed later on.
  • This way no constraints are imposed on setting time limits.

Standard settings

The current codes are defined for the current EU member states in the standard system.
