#### Setting Up UDCs for Belgian Tax Processing

Set the VAT Report Code (74B/TA) for Belgian tax processing.

VAT Report Code (74B/TA)

You must set up UDC 74B/TA with the correct legal codes to configure the Set up TAX Rate Area / Document Type program (P74B500). Typical Belgian tax codes are contained in the Codes field.

The Codes column is a numeric two-position field. The Description 01 column lists the category of the value added tax (VAT) being reported and contains standard Belgian categories. The Description 02 column contains the type of VAT.

Your VAT Report Code (74B/TA) UDC table should be set up like this:

Codes | Description 01 | Description 02
00 | Zero tax | Outgoing
01 | 6 pct. tax | Outgoing
02 | 12 pct tax | Outgoing
03 | 21 pct. tax | Outgoing
45 | VAT paid by co-contractor | Outgoing
46 | Free from VAT: Intracomm. goods | Outgoing
47 | Free from VAT: non EU Export | Outgoing
48 | Credit Notes for code 46 | Outgoing
49 | Credit Notes for A, B and C | Outgoing
54 | VAT Payable on A | VAT payable
55 | Intracomm. goods and services | VAT payable
56 | Co-contractor goods and services | VAT payable
57 | Non EU import, VAT domestic | VAT payable
59 | VAT recoverable | VAT recoverable
61 | Corr.: total VAT payable | VAT payable
62 | Corr.: total VAT recoverable | VAT recoverable
63 | VAT on credit notes received | VAT payable
64 | VAT on credit notes send | VAT recoverable
81 | Goods and Services | Incoming
82 | Services and Other | Incoming
83 | Goods for internal use | Incoming
84 | Credit Notes for 86 | Incoming
85 | Other Credit Notes | Incoming
86 | Intracomm. Goods and Services | Incoming
87 | Services on real estate | Incoming
98 | Not in VAT Report | Outgoing
99 | Not in VAT Report | Incoming

#### Setting Up UDCs for Accounts Payable

Set Category Code 7 to process accounts payable payments for Belgium.

Category Code 07 (01/07)

Set up values in UDC table 01/07 to identify foreign payment reporting categories for the Belgian authorities. When entering supplier master records, enter the code in the Category Code 7 field so that Belgian payments are processed correctly.

For example, you might set up these codes:

- 090: Export credits

- 09: International business credits

Verify all codes with the Belgian authorities before entering them.

### Setting Up Payment Formats for Belgium

This section provides an overview of payment formats for Belgium and discusses how to:

- Set processing options for Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Foreign (R04572L2).

- Set processing options for Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Domestic/EURO (R04572L3).

#### Understanding Payment Formats for Belgium

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software supports these country-specific automatic payment formats for Belgium:

Format | Description
Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Foreign (R04572L2) | This payment format is based on the current Belgian banker association standard and enables clients to write electronic funds transfers (EFTs) to foreign suppliers. This format supports the International Bank Account Number (IBAN); the output records contain the IBAN number and other related IBAN information if you set up IBAN information for your company and your supplier.
Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Domestic/EURO (R04572L3) | The Belgian domestic-compliant and euro-compliant payment format. This payment format is based on the current Belgian banker association standard. This format enables clients to write EFT to domestic suppliers.

Using the Foreign Payment Format

The Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Foreign payment format is used for payments to foreign suppliers. When you run the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Foreign program, the system produces a cover page in the standard printed format.

The system also generates a standard bank formatted output file in these tables:

Table | Description
A/P Payment Tape (F04572OW) | The standard EFT table in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne payment processing cycle.
Text Processor Header (F007101) | The header record for the Text File Processor program (P007101).
Text Processor Detail Table (F007111) | The detail record for the Text File Processor program (P007101).

Note. You can use either the A/P Payment Tape table (F04572OW) or Text Processor tables to extract payment details from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system.

The cover page includes:

Information | Description
Principal | The name and address of the company that is remitting the payment.
Registration Number | The file ID for the A/P Payment Tape table (F04572OW).
Ordering Customer's Account Number | The bank transit number that is associated with the company account that is being used for payment. This information is found in the Bank Transit Master table (F0030) that is associated with that account.
Name of Medium File | The name of the report that creates the file.
Creation Date | The date when the file is created.
Number of Data Records | The number of data records created in the A/P Payment Tape table (F04572OW).
Number of Payment Orders | The number of separate payments that are included in the file.
Total of Amounts | The total amount of the payments added together.

When you run the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Foreign program, the payment attachment program that is associated with this payment group produces a standard payment attachment. As with standard payment processing, the payment attachment contains the invoice numbers that are included in the payment.

Considerations for the Foreign Payment Format

To correctly populate the bank's address in the output file from the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Foreign program, you must complete either of these fields:

- SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications) Code on the Set Up Bank Accounts by Address form.

- Address Number on the Set Up Bank Transit Address form.

When you complete the SWIFT Code field, the SWIFT Code and the supplier's account number create a unique bank/bank account number combination in the bank file. When you complete the Address Number field for the bank, the bank's mailing address and the supplier's account number create a unique bank address/bank account number combination in the bank file.

Important! Oracle recommends that you complete the SWIFT Code field and leave the Address Number field blank. If you complete both fields, the system uses the value in the SWIFT Code field.

The Domestic Belgium Payment Format

The Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Domestic/EURO (R04572L3) payment format is used for payments to domestic suppliers. When you run the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Belgium Domestic/EURO program, it generates a cover page and a reference list in the standard printed format.

The system also generates a standard bank formatted output file in these tables:

Table | Description
A/P Payment Tape (F04572OW) | The standard EFT table in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne payment processing cycle.
Text Processor Header (F007101) | The header record for the Text File Processor program (P007101).
Text Processor Detail Table (F007111) | The detail record for the Text File Processor program (P007101).

Note. You can use either the A/P Payment Tape table (F04572OW) or Text Processor tables to extract payment details from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system.

The reference list includes:

Detail | Description
Registration Number | This number identifies the file in the A/P Payment Tape table (F04572OW).
Payment From | This is the bank transit number that is associated with the company account that is being used for payment. This information is found in the Bank Transit Master table (F0030) that is associated with that monetary account.
Payment To | This line identifies the payee's bank account number.
Detail Section | This section includes the document type, document number, invoice number, invoice date, payment amount, and due date.

In addition to the reference list and cover page, an additional report is generated by the domestic payment program. The Bank Payment Detail Belgium program (R74GHP70), or Remittance letter, generates a hard copy of detail information that is included in the electronic file. It contains additional detail information about the electronic payment.

### (BEL) Setting Up Tax Rate Areas for Belgium

This section provides an overview of the setup for tax rate areas for Belgium and discusses how to set up tax rate areas and document types.

Setting Up Tax Rate Areas

#### Understanding the Setup for Tax Rate Areas for Belgium

You use the Set up Tax Rate Area Document Type (P74B500) program to set up the tax rates and areas for Belgium. You must set up the tax rate area and valid document types according to the type of VAT that is being reported. The data that you enter in this program is stored in the Monthly VAT (F74B100) table.

Tax rate areas must be set up according to accepted Belgian legal codes. Existing legal codes retrieve tax data from one of the two Code Tax/Amount fields in the Taxes (F0018) table.

Note. The Code Tax/Amount column is not part of the UDC table (74B/TA). It corresponds to the Set up TAX Rate Area / Document Type program (P74B500) and indicates which field in the F0018 table is used in the report.

This table shows examples of values in the VAT Report Code (76B/TA) UDC table and an additional column for the tax code used in the Set up Tax Rate Area Document Type program:

Code | Description 01 | Description 02 | Code Tax/Amount
00 | Zero tax | Outgoing | A
01 | 6 percent tax | Outgoing | A
02 | 12 percent | Outgoing | A
03 | 21 percent | Outgoing | A

#### Forms Used to Set Up Tax Rate Areas and Document Types for Belgium

Form Name | FormID | Navigation | Usage
Work with Tax Area & Document Type | W74B500A | Belgium Localization, (G74B), Set up Tax Rate Area / Document Type. | Review and select Belgian tax rate/area records.
Tax Area & Document Type Revisions | W74500B | Click Add on the Work with Tax Area & Document Type form. | Add and revise tax rate/area information for Belgium.

#### Setting Up Tax Rate Areas and Document Types

Access the Tax Area & Document Type Revisions form.

Tax Rate/Area | Enter a code that identifies a tax or geographic area that has common tax rates and tax authorities. The system validates the code that you enter against the F4008 table. The system uses the tax rate/area in conjunction with the tax explanation code and tax rules to calculate tax and GL distribution amounts when you create an invoice or voucher.
Document Type | Enter a UDC (00/DT) that identifies the origin and purpose of the transaction. The system reserves several prefixes for document types, such as vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets.
Sales Taxable | Enter an inventory item number. The system provides three separate item numbers plus an extensive cross-reference capability to other item numbers (see data item XRT) to accommodate substitute item numbers, replacements, bar codes, customer numbers, supplier numbers, and so forth. The item numbers are: Item Number (short) - An eight-digit, computer-assigned item number 2nd Item Number - The 25-digit, free-form, user-defined alphanumeric item number 3rd Item Number - Another 25-digit, free-form, user-defined alphanumeric item number
Invoice/Voucher | Enter a line in the Automatic Accounting Instructions table that is to be used for debit or credit entries when writing journal entries.
VAT Code | Enter a value that exists in the VAT Report Code (74B/TA ) UDC table to specify the VAT category.
Code Tax/Amount | Enter a value of A for the taxable amount or T for the tax amount. In Belgium, the type of VAT code determines where the VAT amount for this field comes from in the F0018 table. T values will direct the report to get the value from field AmtSalesTaxAuth1 (Alias TDSTA1) and AmtSalesTaxAuth2 (Alias TDSTA2). A values will direct the report to get the value from field AmountTaxable (Alias TDATXA).
