You can manage your company data, business partners, and excise duty roles in the companies section of your master data.
- Please note the technical requirements for smooth message exchange in EMCS Filing: Each company in EMCS Filing may only be assigned one role.
The only exception is if a company is a tax warehouse keeper and has only one tax warehouse assigned. In this case, the company may be assigned both the 'Tax warehouse (consignor/consignee)' and 'Tax warehouse keeper' roles. For more information, see the AEB Help Centre: Creating a tax warehouse.
To create companies or modify existing company entries:
- Go to Office > Master Data > Companies.
- Use the New button to create a new company, or double click on an entry to amend it.
- Select the Company roles tab and click New to assign the required role.
- If a company has more than one role in the movement of goods subject to excise duty, create another company for this.
- Enter the relevant excise duty number in the Excise no. field on the EMCS tab.
- Click Save & close to save your entries.
If you no longer have a business relationship with individual companies, you can set the Inactive flag in the Details section of the Company tab. Do not delete the company entry so that related transactions remain traceable for later customs audits. However, the inactive company will no longer be offered for selection in EMCS transactions.
Upload via CSV file
You can also import your business partner details by uploading a CSV file. To do this, click on the Import button in the company overview and a new window will open.
The Help button provides a brief description of the required file format. Please note that all 24 columns must be present in the CSV file, but they can be empty.
