Setting Up One Stop Shop in ABRA Flexi

How to Set Up OSS from 1 July 2021

Written by Lenka Haringerová

As of July 1, 2021, the Mini One Stop Shop (MOSS) scheme is being replaced by the One Stop Shop (OSS) scheme. OSS configuration is available from version 2021.6 in the Business and Premium license tiers. We have also prepared a video tutorial for you.

Company Settings

The initial OSS configuration is found in the company settings under the Legislation tab. The following new fields have been added:

  • Special scheme of a single administrative point (MOSS, valid until 30.6.2021)

  • OSS – EU scheme – intended for e-shops (cross-border distance selling) and providers of cross-border services to end consumers

  • OSS – non-EU scheme – intended for senders of goods who are based outside the EU and ship goods with a value of up to €150

  • OSS – import scheme – intended for providers of cross-border services outside the EU to end consumers within the EU

MOSS users are automatically transitioned to OSS as of July 1, 2021. If you were registered under the MOSS scheme, both the first field (Special scheme of a single administrative point (MOSS, valid until 30.6.2021)) and the OSS scheme field will be checked.

Save the settings by clicking OK, then in the dialog box select "Create new settings valid from" and enter the date July 1, 2021.

VAT Country

Additional configuration is available on document types. The field VAT Country has been added to received inquiries, issued quotes, and received orders. When a country is set on the document type or directly on a document, and related documents are subsequently generated, the VAT country information is carried through to the final document.

Issued Invoice Type Settings

For issued invoices, you need to create a new document type in the menu Sales – Document Types – Issued Invoice Types. You can copy an existing document type and then reconfigure the following fields on the Posting tab:

VAT Country: if you want the VAT country to be pulled from the document type, fill in the VAT Country field (if you leave the field empty or do not check the "Prefer on documents" option, it will change based on the delivery country)

Posting template: a new posting template with the correct VAT fulfillment code must be configured

Prefer on documents: if this field is checked, the VAT country will be pulled from the invoice type rather than from the delivery country

Fulfillment Codes

The following new VAT fulfillment codes have been added in the Posting Templates menu:

OSS – EU services

OSS – EU goods

OSS – non-EU

OSS – import scheme

Fulfillment codes must be preconfigured according to the nature of the sale in order to ensure the correct VAT line is preset.

Issued Invoice

On the issued invoice, all fields will be populated according to the settings defined on the document type. If the VAT Country field is empty and Prefer on documents is not checked, the VAT country will be filled in based on the delivery country. The hierarchy is as follows:

1) customer's VAT country

2) if a different delivery address is specified, this field takes precedence over field 1)

3) if the destination is also different, this field takes precedence over both field 1) and field 2)

Warning! The VAT country is only changed for non-VAT payers who have the "VAT payer" field unchecked in the address book and do not have a VAT registration number filled in!!
