Situation
  • The VAT identification number (VAT) clearly identifies me as an entrepreneur or company within the meaning of the VAT Act within the European Union and thus enables me to trade goods and services within the EU. The existence of a correct VAT number is one of the prerequisites for the VAT exemption of a delivery. 
  • Furthermore, I am obliged by law to check the correctness of the information provided by my customers and suppliers. In doing so, not only the simple existence of a VAT must be checked, but also its correct spelling and validity.
Challenges
  • There is a risk of high additional tax payments if the VAT number is not available. 
  • Checking the accuracy of my customers' and suppliers' details is time-consuming. 
  • There is no function in the Sales Cloud or in Business byDesign that supports me in this query. 
  • An automatic bulk data run of inventory data is not possible. 
  • Access to the EU Commission database involves additional effort.
  • Exporting test results by means of a report is not possible.
