Intrastat P/L

The Intrastat system is used to collect statistics on the physical trade in goods (i.e. the actual movement of goods) between the various member countries of the European Union (EU). If your business is situated in an EU country and its trade with companies in other EU countries is greater than the threshold value, it will be necessary to send an Intrastat report periodically to the relevant authorities.

This document lists the Items purchased from Suppliers in the EU Zone during the relevant period together with quantities and values. This information is taken from the fields on flip B of the relevant Purchase Invoices. When entering Purchase Invoices, make sure these fields are filled out correctly before approving them. If you have the Purchase Orders Value Pack and will be creating Purchase Invoices from Purchase Orders (using the 'Create Purchase Invoice' function on the Operations menu of the Purchase Order screen), make sure you have chosen the Consolidate by Items and Project or Transfer Each Row Separately options in the Purchase Invoice Settings setting. These will ensure the appropriate information is transferred from Purchase Orders to Purchase Invoices automatically.

You should design the Form to conform to official requirements.

You can also export this information to a text file using the 'Intrastat Purchase Invoices' Export function.
