Subject: RE: [ubl-dev] DeliveryPeriod vs InvoicePeriod
Thanks Kees, There is a but … The definition of the InvoicePeriod is different of what my ‘RealizedDeliveryPeriod’ is. You can put any invoiceperiod dates on an invoice and it doesn’t have anything to do with the deliveries that are being made (past or future). As a consultant I can give my contractor multiple invoices on the period ‘may’. The same goes for payments upfront where delivery is scheduled sometime in the future; what would be the invoiceperiod in that case? And what if that amount gets combined with something that already has been delivered? Does that change the invoiceperiod dates? For me the invoiceperiod means nothing, they are just some dates which may or may not be overridden or complemented with other invoices. That is why Dutch tax states that it is the moment of delivery (or agreement to deliver, for future stuff) is the date that serves as the base for when the invoice needs to be sent and the VAT has to be calculated. Sure I can abuse the invoiceperiod as my ‘RealizedDeliverPeriod’, but it’s abuse nevertheless. Thanks for correcting my overlooking the line/invoiceperiod in 2.1. Cheers, Roland Van: Duvekot, Kees [mailto:kduvekot@Wehkamp.nl] Roland, Van: Roland Hommes - Rhocon [roland@rhocon.nl] I have a semantic issue that you may have dealt with before. On an invoice I’m not really interested in the InvoicePeriod (the period that is covered by the invoice as a whole). What I’m interested in is the realized delivery period which can occur on Invoice AND/OR on Line and cover a startDate and EndDate. This plays a particular role when dealing with telecom providers. The invoice covers two lines: one for the subscription which is paid upfront and a line covering the calls and internet consumption made during the month or period before the invoice is being sent. So I’m having a problem with the meaning of InvoicePeriod: I’d rather have ‘RealizedDeliveryPeriod’ and, I need this period to appear on line level which is not the case in both 2.0 and 2.1. Custom Invoice time? Or is there a better solution? Thanks, Roland Logius/NL |
