Submit a VAT return to the Altinn web service

  • [アーティクル]

When you successfully obtained an access token for Altinn, your Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance environment is ready to interoperate with the Altinn web service to submit VAT returns.

The processing for a VAT return that is submitted to Altinn consists of many steps. For a full description of the submission process, see the API page.

Electronic messaging (EM) functionality is used to support the process of generating a VAT return and submitting it directly to Altinn from Finance. When you import a package of data entities that includes a predefined EM setup into your legal entity, all the actions that are required to submit VAT returns to Altinn are imported. The following illustration shows a simplified schema of the EM processing that is delivered with the NO VAT return – Altinn setup file.

Schema of the EM processing that is delivered with the NO VAT return – Altinn setup file.

Not all the relationships between the actions defined in NO VAT return processing are included into the diagram.

To simplify the process of submitting VAT returns, most of actions are aggregated into inseparable sequences. When the first action in a sequence is initiated, the system automatically runs all the actions in that sequence. Therefore, the process is significantly simplified, and the required steps are reduced to the following list:

  1. Create a message.
  2. Collect sales tax payments.
  3. Mark the message as ready to generate the VAT return.
  4. Preview the VAT return in Microsoft Excel.
  5. Generate the VAT return.
  6. Validate the VAT return in the Tax Administration web service.
  7. Submit the VAT return.
  8. Download attachments.

If the business validation that the Tax Administration performs is passed, this action updates the status to NO VAT Return validation passed successfully. If errors are identified during the business validation, this action updates the status to NO VAT Error VAT return validation, applies an Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) transformation to the valideringsresultat.xml file, and attaches the transformed file to the action log for the record. You can then review it further as the valideringsresultat_transformed.html file attached to the action log for the NO VAT Import validation response action.

If no errors were identified in the submitted VAT return, the status is updated to NO VAT SUCCESSFUL VAT return submission to the Tax Administr.
