Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 and 2009 SP1 White Paper: Country-Specific Update for Germany

This white paper describes the country-specific update that was released for Germany in hotfix rollup 6 for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 and 2009 SP1.

German businesses that supply goods to other companies in the European Union (EU) must submit periodic reports to the German tax authorities that itemize their sales transactions. The EU sales list reports the value of goods sold to VAT-registered customers in other EU member countries. In accordance with German legislation, the EU sales list must be generated as an XML file and submitted on a monthly, bimonthly, quarterly, or yearly basis, depending on business volume. You can submit the report electronically and upload it to the Bundeszentralamt für Steuern (BZST) portal.

The following changes have been implemented in the EU sales list:

• Addition of monthly and bimonthly reporting periods
• Updated XML file structure
• Updated printed report
