Countries
General information about code lists can be found in the Code Lists chapter.
This is one of the fundamental code lists. It is populated at the time of installation. Its primary use is when trading with foreign partners in company addresses. This code list is used in documents in the "VAT Country" field. When creating a document, this field is automatically populated with the country you selected when setting up your company.
You can open the list from the "Tools" menu under "Code Lists -> Rates".
The top toolbar of the table contains a number of buttons whose functions are described in the dedicated chapter "Program Controls".

"Administration" Tab
The "Administration" tab contains information about the time validity and visibility of a given record in the code list (list). The validity of a record is specified as a range of calendar years. Within the specified range of years the record is valid; outside of those years the record is not valid and will not be displayed in the code list at all. By restricting validity, you ensure that users are not slowed down by having to scroll through records that are no longer in use during routine work with the code list.
Because time validity is tied to calendar years, it does not correspond to fiscal accounting periods.
Valid from: The calendar year in which the record's validity begins.
Valid to: The calendar year in which the record's validity ends.
If you require the record to have unlimited validity, do not change the preset value of "0" in the Valid from field and "9999" in the Valid to field. The record will then be usable in all calendar years and will appear in the list for every calendar year.
If you set both the Valid from and Valid to fields to "2016", the record will only be usable in the year 2016, meaning it will only be visible in the list during that year (see accounting period in the sidebar navigation header).
