Usage Of Alternative Tax Identifiers

In the SIEVERS E-Rechnung setup, you can select alternatives to the normal VAT ID if your situation requires it.

By default, VAT Reg. No. Usage is set to Company information*. This will cause the VAT ID from the company information to be used when creating e-invoices. Furthermore you can select here

  • Seller Tax Identifier and
  • Tax Representative.

Depending on the selection, you must fill in one of the other fields.

For Sellers tax identifier, fill in the corresponding field with the identifier or a reference to the registered tax status.

If you have selected Tax representative, you must enter the VAT ID of the tax representative in the corresponding field. In addition, the Our account no. field in the accounts receivable cards must be filled. This is due to the fact that the unique identification usually runs through the VAT ID. If this is missing, there must be another way of unique identification. This function is performed by the account number. For more information on the subject, search for the keyword BR-CO-26. This is a condition for the use of E-Rechnung.
