The European Union (EU) requires member states to provide the list of transactions with customers located in the EU:

• The list must be detailed at the customer level (VAT ID).

• You must separate sales by type. Types can differ by country, goods, services, and triangular, intra-community operations for the delivery of goods.

This list is often referred to as the EC sales list (ESL) or EC sales exclusive of VAT or a another designation such as VAT101 for the UK.

Within the ESL framework, you can:

• Define the set of values for the different sales types to be used by the invoicing company.

• Set up an export script to create a specific ESL.

• Define the list of tax codes that must be considered in the ESL extraction and to assign these codes to the relevant sales type.

• Enter the required parameters and extract the EC sales list.

• Identify errors and inconsistencies.

• Export the inquiry if a specific script has been associated with the extraction.
