For reporting, the upload page explains the folder settings and the XML generation through Statutory Report Setup. For the VAT lifecycle, the prepayment, settlement and reinstatement pages cover unrealized VAT, transit VAT and the worksheets used to process them. Reinstatement also draws on settlement concepts such as manual VAT settlement and realized VAT amounts. The tax agent page covers VAT handling for vendors with tax agent roles.
