Create VAT report

After the completion of each tax period you need to create a VAT report in Visma eEkonomi Smart.

When the report is finished, you can create a file and upload it to Skatteverket via skatteverket.se.

  1. Select Accounting - VAT reports.
  2. Select New VAT report.
  3. Select VAT period if it is not pre-selected.

The values for the current period are then retrieved from the accounting. You can see which transactions are included in the amounts of the various fields by clicking on the icon to the right of the respective field.

The program checks for any deviating dates and amounts. If any deviations are found, you will see a message. When you click on the link in the message a list of all the journal entries that you need to verify opens. You can read about how to check deviations in the topic VAT report deviations.

  1. Select Post to ledger if there are no deviations to check.

Once completed, you will get a notification with the created ledger entry number.

When your VAT is posted to the ledger you get a notification with ledger entry number for the VAT period. It is now possible to create a file for electronic submission to Skatteverket. Would you rather create the file at a later time, the file is created from Accounting - VAT reports, by clicking the report and choosing Actions - Create file.

When you create the file, the file will be saved locally on your computer. Which browser you are using and your settings determine where the file will be saved, but usually it is saved in a "downloaded files" folder. The file has the format eSKD.

You can also print a VAT report by opening the report from the menu option Accounting - VAT report and selecting Create PDF.
