Why can't I see the Zusammenfassende Meldung?

The ZM appears only when there is something to report

The Zusammenfassende Meldung, also known as the EC Sales List, appears in Norman only when there are EU intra-community transactions that need to be reported. Norman builds it from your transactions: if the period holds no matching transaction, no ZM is shown.

Check the required details

A transaction reaches the ZM only when all of this is true:

• It is revenue, not an expense.
• A customer is attached to it.
• The customer is set up as a business, not as a private person.
• The customer's country is in the EU and not Germany.
• A VAT ID is stored for the customer.
• The line is booked as goods or services.

Then re-save the affected customers and transactions. If all requirements are met, the ZM appears.

B2C and non-EU cases

Revenue from German customers, from private customers in the EU, and from customers outside the EU such as the United States does not belong in the ZM and does not produce one. Different VAT rules apply to those cases.
