To set up EC customers
If you haven't already read the Dealing with VAT Overview, see Using Accounting Plus for Intra-EC Trade for more information.
- In the Cards Command Centre, select Cards List. The Cards List window appears.
- Click New. The Card Information window appears. At the bottom left hand side of the screen there is a box labelled EC Customer. Check this box for EC customers to whom you supply goods. These cards will be used to generate the EC Sales List report.
- If you only supply this customer with services, do not mark them as an EC customer. Service-only sales should not appear on the EC Sales List. Please note that the VAT reports are based on VAT codes, not EC Customer status. If you don't mark a card as an EC Customer it won't affect your VAT reports.
- Click the Selling Details tab to enter the credit terms information. Enter the EC VAT registration number; this will appear on the EC Sales List report. You may also enter the default VAT code, which should be one that has been set up as an "EC Sale," and select the "Use Customer's VAT Code" checkbox.
