Before you can use the Intrastat Journal, you must decide which Intrastat journal templates and batches you will use. You do this in the Intrastat Journal Templates and Intrastat Jnl. Batches windows.

Because Intrastat is reported monthly, you must create 12 Intrastat journals based on the same template. You set up the names of these 12 journals in the Intrastat Jnl. Batches window.

To set up Intrastat templates

  1. In the Search box, enter Intrastat Journal Templates, and then choose the related link.

  2. In the Intrastat Journal Templates window, create several templates if you need several different forms.

  3. Assign a Name and Description to each template.

To set up Intrastat batches

  1. Select the template for which you want to create batches. On the Navigate, in the Template group, choose Batches.

  2. Enter a Name and Description for each batch.

    Note
    We recommended that you set up a unique Intrastat Journal Batch for each month.

  3. On each batch line, set up the relevant information in the following fields.

    Field Description

    Statistics Period

    Enter the statistics period as a four-digit number, where the first two digits represent the year and the next two digits represent the month. For example, enter 1206 for June 2012.

    Currency Identifier

    Enter a code that identifies the currency of the Intrastat report. For example, you can enter EUR for euro and USD for US dollars.
