Generating the Denmark Standard Audit File for Tax (SAF-T) Financial
The Denmark SAF-T is a standard file format for exporting various types of accounting and tax data in XML format.
To generate the Denmark SAF-T, your role must be assigned Country Tax Reports permission. For more information, see Roles and Permissions in Tax Reporting Framework.
If you have the Full Multi-Book Accounting feature enabled, you can generate the Denmark SAF-T XML file in a generic book or specific journal book, aligned with the reports specifications.
All transaction numbers must be unique to ensure that SAF-T reports transactions correctly. For more information about numbering, see Reset Initial Transaction and Document Numbering Sequences and Setting Up Auto-Generated Numbering.
Non-posting and statistical account type accounts are not exported and used in the report. For more information about these account types, see Non-Posting Account Registers and Using Statistical Accounts.
The Danish Tax Agency (Skattestyrelsen) defined certain constraints on data fields. To prevent data rejection, ensure all fields comply with their specifications before submitting your report. For more details, refer to: Danish SAF-T format for Cash Register data, version 1.2
