Intrastat journal entries are created based on the Country/ Region code of each transaction.

 

This table shows the countries and their codes and the associated Intrastat code. For European countries this Intrastat code is mandatory as traders within the EU are required to provide data in the Intrastat system.

The system takes into account the Country/ Region Code of the Customer/Vendor/ Contacts is foreign and from a country with an Intrastat code the physical movement of the product is recorded in the log.

The system also considers our company code defined in the company information. So Business Centra won’t report the domestic transactions.
