VAT EC Sales online submission errors
The EC Sales report in Netsuite is erroneous. It produces a CSV file that is formatted incorrectly for submission to the HMRC.
Basically, the CSV file is formed in "number" format - when it should be formed from Netsuite in "text" format.
The consequence is that "000" appears as "0" and a VAT number like "01234567" appears wrongly as "1234567" or even worse as a scientific number.
The upshot is that you cannot submit the form online from Netsuite without receiving a "failure" message and if you try to downlooad the CSV file and upload it as a "bulk upload" on the HMRC site - you will encounter many format errors meaning hours of manual corrections.
