VAT Reporting issue Germany

HI Everyone,

I have a German customer with company code 2000 the VAT reporting is quarterly. SAP gives monthly declarations. And on top none of the steps are available to execute the transaction. SAP gives immediately 'submitted to government'

Please kindly advise

Hi @Keemlarrys @SFerrand ,

Its bit hard to understand your question, however, what i understood will try to answer.
Sap determines the reporting frequency (monthly, quarterly, yearly) from the company code’s tax configuration. If it's set to monthly, it will always generate a monthly report — even if the business requirement is quarterly.

Go to T-code OBY6, check the 'VAT Return Period', change from M (monthly) to Q.

I hope this answer your question.
If you find my response helpful, kindly award a Kudos as small gesture which motivates me to serve you better.
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
Divyesh
