VAT declaration
Use this function to extract and display the values for the German advance turn over tax return. The output of the calculated data can be printed or exported to the X3 ELSTER Client for online submission.
The data selection depends on the company or group of companies and the date range. The data is extracted from the main legal ledger, which must be in Euros.
The date range can only be a calendar month, a calendar quarter, or a calendar year. Generating the statement for a calendar year is only for internal reconciliation purposes, and it is not an official declaration time range.
