Movement rules and natures

Use this function to link a Statistical rule and a Transaction nature to each movement type.

You can customize this setup by legislation, country and company group for physical and adjustment flows. You can also specify whether the stock value has to be included when the commercial value of the movement is equal to 0.

This setup is used to contextually load the relevant information in the documents associated with the distribution flows. This information can still be modified. It is also used when generating the Intrastat file for Free delivery, Back-to-back order delivery or Subcontract receipt movement lines: The setup information will overwrite the existing values from each entry header.

This function is preloaded with a set of parameters specific to a legislation and a given movement type. This set of parameters is described below.

Field descriptions

Block number 1

In creation mode, the legislation code is initialized by default via the user parameter LEGFIL - Legislation (selection filter) (SUP chapter, INT group). You can also use this parameter to fil ter the selection panel and only display the codes defined for this legislation and those defined for All legislations.
When a legislation code is applied, the setup can only be used by companies under this legislation.

General principles for legislation:

  • When a record exists for a legislation, for example French legislation (FRA), it can only be used in other files (setups, movement entry, etc.) containing the same legislation (FRA) or no legislation at all. It cannot be used in a record containing a different legislation.
  • When a record exists without legislation, or all the legislations, it can be used in other records regardless of their legislation.

NoteThis behavior is modifiedwhen a record has several legislations:

If a record (same code) exists for a legislation, for example FRA, and also without legislation, the behavior is as follows:

  • For a record with a legislation different from the legislation defined in the data (FRA in the example):
    Only the data set up without legislation can be used.
     
  • For a record containing an identical legislation (FRA in the example):
    Only the date set up with this legislation can be used, as long as it is active.
    The data set up without legislation cannot be used even if it is active, and the data set up with legislation is inactive.
     
  • For a record for which there is no legislation entered:
    Only the data set up without legislation can be used.
    The data with a legislation is not available for selection and cannot be used.
    However, if the data without legislation does not exist, all data containing a legislation is available for selection and can be used.

    NoteWhen using data available for several legislations that is set up with a group of companies, an additional control is carried out to maintain consistency within the  group of companies. It is a control between the legislation of the element (setup, flows, etc.) in which the data is used and the legislation of  group of companies entered on the  data and the reverse.
     
    Example: The Tax rate  setup element uses the Tax rule data.
If the Tax rate is linked to a legislation, the control ensures that the group of the Tax rule contains at least one company with the same legislation as the legislation of the Tax rate.
If the Tax rate is defined for a group has no legislation, the control ensures that the legislation of the Tax rule corresponds to at least one of the companies of the group entered on the Tax rate.

  Use this field to select the movement type to which the setup applies. This field is mandatory on creation.
You can select a Legislation, Country, and /or Company group specific to this setup and a given movement type. The key identifying the setup will be created based on this set of information.

By default, this check box is selected to indicate that the setup is active for this legislation.

Clear this box to disable the setup and no longer use it for this legislation. This is the case when a country withdraws fr om the European union, for example.

Legislation (field LEG)
Country (field CRY)

Entering a country code is used to limit the use of this setup to the companies attached to this country.

Group (field GRP)

The code of a group of companies is used to limit the use of this setup to the companies attached to this country.

By entering a company group, you can limit the scope to companies in the selected group only. When this data is used for another record or with a setup element also defined in the group, a control checks that the groups have at least one company in common when the groups are different.  

In addition, a consistency check is performed for the legislations of the companies in the selected group.
At least one of these companies must have the same legislation as the one entered in the Legislation field. If  not, a warning message displays.
