Enables customization of VAT clause description based on document type and language context. - `OnAfterGetDocumentTypeAndLanguageCode(VATClause: Record "VAT Clause"; RecRelatedVariant: Variant; RecRef: RecordRef; var DocumentType: Enum "VAT Clause Document Type"; var LanguageCode: Code[10]; var Result: Boolean)` (integration): Integration event raised after determining document type and language code from related record context. Enables custom logic for document type and language determination based on record relationships. - `OnGetDescriptionByExtendedTextOnAfterGetTempExtTextLine(VATClause: Record "VAT Clause"; RecRelatedVariant: Variant; var ExtendedTextHeader: Record "Extended Text Header"; LanguageCode: Code[10]; DocDate: Date; var TempExtendedTextLine: Record "Extended Text Line" temporary; var Result: Text)` (integration): Integration event raised after retrieving extended text lines for VAT clause description customization. Enables modification of extended text content based on document context and requirements. - `OnGetDocumentTypeAndLanguageCode(VATClause: Record "VAT Clause"; RecRelatedVariant: Variant; var DocumentType: Enum "VAT Clause Document Type"; var LanguageCode: Code[10]; var IsHandled: Boolean)` (integration): Integration event raised when determining document type and language code from related record context. Enables custom document type and language code determination for unsupported record types. - subscribers: [Codeunit 6486 "Serv. VAT Specification Mgt."](../codeunit/6486.md) OnGetDocumentTypeAndLanguageCode - `OnFilterExtendedTextHeaderFromDoc(RecRelatedVariant: Variant; var ExtendedTextHeader: Record "Extended Text Header"; var IsHandled: Boolean; var LanguageCode: Code[10]; var DocDate: Date; RecordRef: RecordRef)` (integration): Integration event raised when filtering extended text headers based on document context. Enables custom extended text filtering logic for document-specific requirements. - `OnGetDescriptionByExtendedTextOnBeforeReadExtTextLines(var VATClause: Record "VAT Clause"; var RelatedRecordRef: RecordRef; var ExtendedTextHeader: Record "Extended Text Header"; var LanguageCode: Code[10]; var DocDate: Date; RecRelatedVariant: Variant)` (integration): Integration event raised before reading extended text lines for VAT clause description processing. Enables preprocessing of extended text parameters and customization of text retrieval logic. ## Procedures - `TranslateDescription(Language: Code[10])`: Translates VAT clause description to the specified language using translation table lookup. Updates the current record's description fields with translated text if available. - `GetDescriptionText(RecRelatedVariant: Variant): Text`: Retrieves the complete description text for the VAT clause based on the related document context. Attempts extended text lookup first, then document-type-specific descriptions, and finally standard translations. Plus 5 local procedures. ## Triggers OnDelete, OnInsert, OnModify, OnRename ## Relations - drill-down page [Page 747 "VAT Clauses"](../page/747.md) - lookup page [Page 747 "VAT Clauses"](../page/747.md) ## Referenced by 19 fields in 19 objects relate to this table (TableRelation or CalcFormula). - [Table 113 "Sales Invoice Line"](../table/113.md): VAT Clause Code - [Table 115 "Sales Cr.Memo Line"](../table/115.md): VAT Clause Code - [Table 279 "Extended Text Header"](../table/279.md): No. - [Table 280 "Extended Text Line"](../table/280.md): No. - [Table 290 "VAT Amount Line"](../table/290.md): VAT Clause Code - [Table 296 "Reminder Line"](../table/296.md): VAT Clause Code - [Table 298 "Issued Reminder Line"](../table/298.md): VAT Clause Code - [Table 303 "Finance Charge Memo Line"](../table/303.md): VAT Clause Code - [Table 305 "Issued Fin.

The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "table", object_name: "VAT Clause")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
