Purpose: The single market of the European Union reduces the transactions that are officially
recorded to imports and exports with countries outside of the EU. Nonetheless, the recording of
country-specific intra-European transactions is just as relevant for individual member states of
the European Union, to derive information about a countrys economic strength, foreign trade
activities, and trade. Countries can use this data, for example, to implement measures to
optimize its trade conditions.
As a result, every company is obliged to record the necessary statistical data. SAP Electronic
Compliance Reporting (SAP ECR) supports you with the statistics declarations that you have to
submit to the authorities for transactions involving trade between two member states of the EU.
Work list can create intrastat declarations based on your logistics processes in the feeder
system. Once you configure integration with the logistics system, the relevant business
transactions are transferred automatically to a work list in SAP ECR, from which you can create
the intrastat declarations.
Intrastat declaration use to submit binding information about shipments and goods receipts
between two countries in the European Union. You can either aggregate the goods movements
for a period and direction by statistical goods movement or record the items for each
transaction. You can use SAP ECR to create the declaration file to ensure that your trade
information meets the data format requirements of your statistics authorities
