Raised on behalf of G2348461.

 

Hi,

We need to understand what is the source of the validation and what IFS is validating in RMB 'Validate Tax ID Number'.

Does the logic checks following things:
* VAT ID number 
* Company Name and legal form
* Address

Which data source is used for the validation?

How this validation works?

 

Best regards

Zuha

In Apps 9 this is connecting to the VIES tax registration and performing the check whether the VAT number is valid and it exists. Same as the link below, it does not check whether the VAT registration is applied to the correct supplier/customer record, it simply checks whether it’s a valid registration in the country specified.

Dear Ieva,

Can you please let us know whether there are any routing rules or any application messages relevant for this.

@Zuha Samsudeen Can you please share the setup of this validation. Basic data set up and configuration details.

Regards

Naadira

It’s not a configuration and is a live connection with a pre-defined source - there are no application messages, basic data or routing rules that you can amend as far as I’m aware.

 

If you test this with any valid VAT registration, it will come back saying that the registration is valid, but if you make one up that is not valid - the response will be that it’s not valid. 

 

This currently uses UK and EU VAT registration validation sources.
