Printing and Intrastat (POP settings)

Use these settings if you need to produce Intrastat declarations for EC VAT purposes.

Here you specify:

• Whether you want to include purchase orders and returns on your Intrastat declaration.

• The default Terms of Delivery.

  You must provide additional delivery terms on your Intrastat declaration if you exceed the delivery terms threshold.

  For more information about the delivery terms threshold, see the UKTradeInfo website.

• The default Nature of Transaction Code (NoTC).

  This indicates the type of transaction which is being declared on the Intrastat. For example; straightforward sales or acquisitions, goods sent for processing or free of charge goods.

  For more information about the Nature of Transaction codes, see the UKTradeInfo website.

• Whether Intrastat entries are based on their despatch/receipt date or the invoice date (UK only).

  In the UK you can choose when to include transaction on your Intrastat declaration; on despatch/receipt of goods or the date VAT was applied.

  You cannot change this once you have generated your Intrastat entries.

  In Ireland, a company must declare goods based upon when VAT became chargeable on the goods.

• The Mode of Transport (Ireland only)

  If you generate an Irish declaration you also need to select a code for the mode of transport. These codes must be applied in accordance with Irish Revenue Commissioners rules.

Select Automatically print copy orders to print copies of your purchase orders.

• Copies are printed automatically for orders that are not on holdThe 'on hold' status indicates that an account or an order has been queried. It is suspended to prevent any processing until the on hold status is removed ('off hold')..
• If you are using order authorisation, a copy of the order is printed when the order is authorised.
• If you are not using order authorisation, a copy of the order is printed once you save an order, whether it is a new order or an amended order.
• Copy orders are printed in accordance with your print setup.
