Introduction

According to Legislative Decree no. 127/2015, art. 1 and Decree Law 78/2010, art. 21, all companies in Italy must transmit electronically in XML format, the Purchases and Sales Invoices Communication (DATIFATTURA) on a quarterly basis.

Basically, to meet this legal requirement in Dynamics AX, there was implemented an Invoices communication register functionality. More specifically, it is described in the following KB articles:

AX6.3

AX6.2

According to the requirements of Purchases and Sales Invoices Communication report, companies in Italy should transmit information about their issued and received invoices each calendar quarter for the previous calendar quarter. The report should include the detailed information about the sales tax transaction for each of the invoice. If a sales tax transaction of an invoice was posted with a kind of VAT exemption, then the nature of the exemption should be reported in a specific NATURA tag on the report.

According to the legal requirements, the following values of NATUAR are applicable:

VAT paid in another UE country/region

Overview

Initially, the Invoices communication register functionality supported generation of the Purchases and Sales invoice communication report calculating NATURA according to the following algorithm:

*****

For all the Customers and Vendors invoices:

If SalesTaxTransaction.ReverseCharge = "Yes" --> N6

Else if TaxType = "Standard" --> no tag

Else if TaxCountryRegionType = "EU" --> N7

Else if TaxType = "NotSubjectToVAT" --> N2

Else if TaxType = "Zero" --> N3

Else if TaxType = "Exempt"

       If SalesTaxTransaction.ExemptReason = "ExemptArt.15" --> N1

       Else -->N4

Otherwise -->N3

******

Thus, all the NATURA values were supported excepting N5 "Edge regime" value as the related business process was not previously supported in Dynamics AX.

Basing on partners' request in Dynamics AX, there was implemented an extension to support the related "Edge regime" process to get NATURA tag "N5" value to be reported correctly.

The updated algorithm is as following:

*******

For all the Customers and Vendors invoices:

If SalesTaxTransaction.ReverseCharge = "Yes" --> N6

Else if TaxCountryRegionType = "EU" --> N7

Else if TaxType = "NotSubjectToVAT" --> N2

Else if TaxType = "Zero" --> N3

Else if SalesTaxTransaction.Exempt = "Yes"

           If SalesTaxTransaction.ExemptReason = "ExemptArt.15" --> N1

           I f SalesTaxTransaction.ExemptReason = "EdgeRegime" --> N5

           Else -->N4

Else if TaxType = "Standard" --> no tag

Otherwise -->N3

*******

Setup and usage

Set up a specific Tax exempt codefor reflecting operation related to Edge regime: open General ledger>Setup>Sales tax>Sales tax exempt codes:

This image shows how to setup a specific tax exempt code.

Setup aSales tax codein a Sales tax groupsetting up this Tax exempt code:

Use the Sales tax group to reflect operations which are subject to NATURAreporting withN5value.

These tax transactions will be posted with a reference on Tax exempt codewhich includes an information about whichTax exempt reasonshould be reported for it.

The calculation of NATURA value will be done automatically on the Invoices communication report generation according to the algorithm presented above in the Overview part.
