Setting Up Accounting Book Numbers for ECD Files

If you've sent ECD files to the SPED system before, set up the accounting book number of your most recent submission in NetSuite. When you generate new ECD files, the system automatically increments the book number and includes it in the file.

Tax authorities in Brazil may refer to the accounting book number as the número de ordem do instrumento de escrituração.

To set up an accounting book number for ECD files:

  1. Go to Setup > Brazil Reports > Accounting Book Number for ECD > New.

    The system opens a new accounting book number for ECD record.

  2. In the Subsidiary field, select the subsidiary associated with the accounting book number you're setting up.

    The subsidiary must be a parent subsidiary.

  3. In the Book Number field, enter the number assigned to the last accounting book you submitted to the SPED system.

    NetSuite uses this number as the starting point for future ECD file submissions.

  4. In the Year field, enter the year you submitted the accounting book.

    You can enter a year between 2000 and 2099.

  5. Click Save.
