         <ListIntro>For tax registration in a foreign country, the following rules
		  apply:</ListIntro>
         <ListItem>A financial company is the smallest entity that can have a
		  unique <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#000336" role="glossary">tax number</Link>. For every tax registration in a foreign
		  country, you must define a financial company.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>If you do not set up tax registration in a foreign country, the
		  financial department of an order is the same department as the administrative
		  department.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>ERP Enterprise only displays the financial department on the order headers if the
		  administrative department and the financial department of the order differ.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>You can only change the financial department on an order header
		  or order line manually.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>For the sender's address on external documents such as invoices
		  and communications to customers and suppliers, ERP Enterprise prints the address
		  of the administrative department.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>The financial postings of an order or invoice are made in the
		  financial company that has a tax number in the <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#000337" role="glossary">tax country</Link> of the order.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>You cannot change the tax country of an order if financial
		  postings exist in the financial company of the current financial department.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>For the integration transaction mapping, the administrative
		  department of orders and invoices is available as integration element. In the
		  financial company of the tax country, you can use this integration element to
		  distinguish the integration transactions by administrative department.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>The details of order-related and invoice-related financial
		  integration transactions include the financial department.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>ERP Enterprise does not automatically generate financial transactions between the financial
		  companies of the administrative department and the financial department of an
		  order. If such transactions are required, you must create manual journal
		  vouchers.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>For goods transfer, ERP Enterprise bases the generation of internal invoices
		  between, for example, the warehouse and the sales office, on the goods transfer
		  relationship between the warehouse and the <Emphasis>financial
		  department</Emphasis> of the order.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>To generate correct <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#Intrastat_tc" role="glossary">Intrastat declaration</Link> and <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#SalesListin_tc" role="glossary">sales listing</Link> data, the financial company with a tax
		  number in a foreign tax country must have an address in the foreign tax
		  country.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>If your organization's legal address for matters related to
		  business in the tax country differs from the address of the financial company
		  in the tax country, you can enter the legal address in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/tax/tctax4110m000" role="session">Financial Departments (tctax4110m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
