Management Assistant for SOVA Master File 2018
SOVA Master File 2018 published
The German Federal Statistical Office published the new list of valid commodity codes (SOVA master file) for 2018 on 2 November 2017. As such, companies must implement all the many required changes by the beginning of the new year. The Mercoline SOVA Assistant can help you avoid the last-minute rush by conducting this process in advance, so all you have to do is activate the data at the start of January 2018.
Each year in early November, the German Federal Statistical Office publishes the current list of valid commodity codes. This year, the SOVA master file initiates changes in more than 40 commodity codes, for example through the deletion, new entry or merging of commodity codes. The changes indicated by the SOVA master file must be implemented in the SAP system punctually for the beginning of 2018. Otherwise, users face issues with ATLAS customs declarations or foreign trade statistics notification. It’s important to note that changed commodity codes are no longer covered by approvals.
