Copies of journals of received and billed invoices. About changes in the rules of accounting journal. The agent must also consider

An invoice is a document that most enterprises and organizations encounter every day. The main operations of the company, such as the purchase of goods, payment for services, setting the amount payable to the customer, are made out by invoices. The law provides that every invoice must be recorded in a journal. What does the journal for registering bills and invoices look like, who should fill it out, what is the order of certification of the journal - we will talk about this and much more today in our article.

Invoice Log: General Information

To reflect the information on the invoices with which the organization works, an invoice registration journal has been created. In this document flow element, it is necessary to register both invoices received by the company from suppliers and contractors, and issued directly by the organization for goods sold and / or services rendered. Obligations to fill out the journal were made at the legislative level by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1137 of 12/26/11.

Who is required to register accounts in the journal?

Until 01/01/15, absolutely all organizations working with invoices had obligations to fill out the journal, regardless of the nature of the activity. Due to changes in legislation, from 01.01.15 only some categories of business entities should fill out the journal. So, you must enter the data on invoices in the journal if:

  • You are an intermediary and act on your own behalf, but in the interests of the customer according to the contract. For example, you are one of the parties to the commission agreement or agency agreement (agent or agent);
  • Your activity is related to transportation services, namely, you provide expeditionary services with the involvement of third parties, but you do not directly provide these services;
  • You organize the construction of real estate on your own land (act as a developer). Construction work is not carried out independently, but with the involvement of contractors.

Obligations for registration of settlement documents have both a legal entity and an individual entrepreneur. Entering information in the journal should also be entrepreneurs and organizations, regardless of the chosen tax system.

Example No. 1

LLC SkladProm buys vegetables and fruits for JSC Ovoshchebaza No. 1 for subsequent sale. The legal relationship between SkladProm and Ovoshchebaza No. 1 is drawn up by a commission agreement, according to which SkladProm acts as a commission agent.

"SkladProm" enters information on invoices into the journal and submits its fiscal service quarterly. "Vegetable base number 1" has no obligation to fill out this document, therefore, the registry does not keep.

We should also talk about organizations that sell goods at retail and act as commissioners in mediation agreements. Should such firms fill out a journal? The fiscal service gave clear explanations regarding this issue: since retail stores give out cash or merchandise checks to customers, rather than invoices, when selling, documents do not need to be registered in the journal. In addition, the ordinary buyer does not deduct VAT, so it is not advisable for the INFS to control the amount of VAT on sale.

Example No. 2.

Shkolnik LLC has its own chain of stores in which office supplies are sold at retail. Among the assortment of the store are pencils that “Schoolboy” implements on the basis of a commission agreement with JSC “Graphite”. Purchases in stores are made using cashier checks.

Based on the nature of the activity, we can conclude that "Schoolboy" and "Graphite" are exempted from the obligation to fill out an invoice journal. "Schoolboy" does not fill out the journal due to the fact that the sale of goods is made without invoices. “Graphite” is exempted from entering information in the journal due to the fact that in a mediation agreement it acts as a principal and not as a commission agent.

Which accounts are subject to registration?

So, your organization belongs to the category that is required to register accounts in the journal. In this case, you must enter in the journal:

  • Information on invoices that you, as an intermediary (agent), issue to buyers and customers;
  • Data on invoices issued by buyers of goods previously sold by you as an intermediary;
  • Information about the accounts that you as a commission agent receive from sellers of goods (service providers);
  • Data on invoices issued by you (intermediary) to customers for purchased goods (services).

Some organizations only log outgoing invoices. For example, if a financial institution or insurance company acts as a commission agent in an intermediary agreement, then it is not required to consider incoming accounts. Also, those business entities that are not VAT payers do not fill out part 2 of the journal (incoming accounts).

The design of the invoice journal

If you fill out a journal of invoices, then it must be executed in the form and in the manner approved by law. The journal form is divided into two main sections (incoming and outgoing accounts), the information in it is filled in accordance with these sections. The document form contains the following basic information:

  • data about you as a taxpayer (company name or full name IP, TIN, KPP code);
  • period for which the journal is submitted (quarter number, year);
  • invoice information: date, number, buyer / seller, amount with VAT allocated, transaction code according to the classifier, currency code;
  • if the account is adjustment, then this is reflected in a separate column (the amount of adjustment is indicated);
  • signature of the official (head of the organization or other authorized person, individual entrepreneur).

All invoices must be recorded in chronological order.

There are two formats for the invoice journal - electronic and paper. Due to the fact that you are required to submit a journal electronically to the Federal Tax Service bodies on a quarterly basis, it is just as expedient to keep it. If you have a small organization or individual entrepreneur and you keep a journal on paper, you can continue to do this, but the invoice data still needs to be transferred to electronic form for subsequent transmission to the Federal Tax Service via telecommunication channels.

Form filling procedure

As you can see, there is a general mechanism for filling out the invoice journal. But the procedure for entering information differs depending on the nature of the activity.

The table below provides a summary of the procedure for entering information into the journal in the event that you are a commission agent in a mediation agreement.

Certification and delivery of the invoice journal at the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate

According to the results of the reporting quarter, the completed journal must be certified by the signature of the head or another person authorized to sign such documents according to the power of attorney. If you are registered as an IP, then you sign the journal yourself, and also enter information on the details of registration of the IP. If the document is in electronic form, then the signature is also imposed in electronic format (in the form of electronic digital signature).

After signing the journal and certifying it with a seal, the document must be transferred to the Federal Tax Service through telecommunications through a special operator.

For those who are required to file a tax journal, the deadline for submitting the document is set until the 20th day of the next quarter (for the 3rd quarter of 2016 - until 10.20.16). Violation of the reporting deadlines provides for a fine of 10,000 rubles.

The documents used in VAT calculations are not limited to invoices, a purchase book and a sales book. As part of such documents, the Journal of accounting for received and issued invoices is also named. We will talk about this magazine in our material.

Who makes up the magazine

A single journal essentially combines 2 journals: a journal for recording received invoices and a journal for recording issued invoices. In the journal form, these sections are referred to as:

  • Part 1 “Billed Invoices”;
  • Part 2 “Received Invoices”.

Certain persons are required to keep this journal when issuing or receiving invoices, it does not matter whether these persons are VAT taxpayers, persons exempted from the duties of VAT taxpayer, or persons who are not VAT taxpayers.

So, people should keep a journal in relation to the following business activities:

  • activities in the interests of another person on the basis of commission agreements, agency agreements, which provide for the sale or purchase of goods (works, services) on behalf of the commission agent (agent);
  • activity on the basis of transport expedition agreements (in determining their income as remuneration in the performance of these agreements);
  • performance of the functions of the builder.

It is important to consider that the journal does not register invoices issued for the amount of income in the form of remuneration for the above agreements.

The rules for maintaining a journal and its form are established by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 26, 2011 No. 1137.

2016 Invoicing Journal: Who Leads and When

It is logical that those who are obliged to keep it must submit the journal to their IFTS. Accordingly, if you do not have the obligation to keep a register of invoices, then you need to submit to the tax only your VAT returns with the books of purchases and sales included in it.

If the responsibility for maintaining the journal by tax law is assigned to you, then you must submit the journal in electronic form via telecommunication channels no later than the 20th day of the month following the expired quarter.

In this case, the general rule on the postponement of the deadline applies: if the date of delivery of the magazine coincides with a weekend or non-working holiday, the deadline is extended until the next business day following such day (

The rules prescribe the storage of the magazine by the enterprise for a four-year period, together with all primary documents that serve as confirmation of the deduction of VAT.

Key Points

Who is required to register

The question of who is handing over the accounting journal was regulated by changes in legislation that entered into force at the beginning of 2019.

If earlier filling was the responsibility of each enterprise, regardless of its type of activity, provided that it works with invoices, now only this should be done:

  • intermediaries acting on their own behalf, but in the interests of the customer with whom an appropriate contract has been concluded;
  • leading activities related to transportation services;
  • those who act as developers in their own land.

Registration should be carried out by individual entrepreneurs and legal entities. persons, regardless of which tax system they use.

Cancellation and changes to the rules

In April 2019, changes in the legislation governing tax and accounting took place to make the accounting process simpler.

The main innovations are as follows:

  • keeping invoice ledgers is optional for VAT taxpayers;
  • the invoice form may not be signed by the entrepreneurs themselves, but by persons authorized to do so;
  • vAT on the sale of real estate is calculated at the time when the property is directly transferred to the new owner;
  • amendments were made to the rules regarding sum and exchange rate differences, which are combined by the general term "exchange rate differences";
  • the obligation of one-time accounting of expenses on inventory and work clothes was canceled;
  • a procedure has been established by which property received or transferred free of charge is taken into account in value (its market value may be written off as an expense);
  • excluded from tax accounting;
  • the question of including the loss from the assignment of the right to claim the debt in the category of expenses has been clarified (in 2019, the negative difference between the income received from the sale of the right to claim the debt and the price of the product / service is taken into account in the expenses on the date the purchase was made).

Shopping and sales books

Since August 2019, new forms of both the accounting journal and the books of acquisitions and sales are to be applied.

The following changes have occurred in the shopping book:

2nd column She appeared under the name "Operation Type Code".
3rd column Concerning the number and date of the seller’s invoice, the number of the customs declaration is now entered or the number with the date of the declaration regarding the import of goods and the payment of indirect taxes, depending on the country from which the goods are imported.
7th graph It involves the introduction of details of documents that serve as confirmation of the actual payment of VAT.
11th and 12th graphs It refers to the information and activities of intermediaries.
14th graph Designed for the name and code of the currency, the filling of which is required only in cases where the purchase of goods occurs in foreign currency. In all other situations, it is not filled, that is, it remains empty.

The sales book has not been without changes. In particular, it is no longer necessary to enter into it the corrective invoices, which are compiled by the seller, if there is an increase in the value of the shipped products within the tax period when the actual shipment took place.

In addition, the following columns were added to the form:


Requirements for filling out the invoice journal

The basic requirements to be followed when filling out the invoice journal are few. One of the main requirements concerns the mandatory presence of pagination of the document. In addition, it must certainly be stitched.

In the case of using computer programs, for example, 1C 8.3, for keeping a journal, the registers must certainly be displayed on paper with numbering and firmware.

A company that maintains an accounting journal has the right to determine for what period its formation will take place. Ignorance of this document does not provide for any other liability, except for a 50-ruble fine in accordance with article 126 of the Tax Code.

Legal Transactions

Commodity Commodity and Own

If the intermediary acts at the same time both as a commission agent (agent) and a supplier, then the buyer is billed for the full amount of goods. Moreover, in the role of a seller, the intermediary indicates himself directly, despite the fact that there is also a principal's goods there.

The invoice goes through the registration process in the sales book, as well as the intermediary’s magazine and the customer’s purchase book. After that, the account data is sent to the principal so that he can re-arrange the document already as an intermediary.

This re-issued invoice only reflects the goods whose owner is the principal. Registration is required in the principal’s sales book and reseller’s magazine.

For the principal (principal)

When purchasing goods by an intermediary personally for the principal, invoicing by the supplier is done in the name of the intermediary. Registration must be made in the mediation journal, in its acquisitions book and the vendor’s sales book.

Summary Variations

It is allowed to place an intermediary in the name of the principal of the consolidated invoice with the inclusion of goods purchased from various suppliers. In the same way, a principal may issue a consolidated invoice including goods sold to several customers.

In the case of the sale of goods belonging to the principal to a plurality of customers, separate accounts are issued in the name of each of them, which are entered in the corresponding purchase books.

After this, the principal receives data from the intermediary regarding all sales made, and the principal, in turn, issues a general invoice for the volume of goods sold. This general account is registered in the intermediary’s magazine and the principal’s sales book.

When a mediator purchases goods to a principal, they are given invoices from suppliers. These issued documents are subject to registration in the magazine and sales books of suppliers. After that, the general invoice for the goods purchased from all sellers is issued to the principal from the intermediary. Registration of this aggregate account is carried out in the intermediary's journal and the principal's acquisitions book.

There are times when an intermediary in one day receives prepayment from a number of buyers for the future delivery of goods that belong to the principal. In this case, the responsibility of the intermediary is to issue separate invoices for advance payments to each of the clients. Account data must be registered in the journal and purchase books of these customers.

In the future, the principal receives a message from the intermediary regarding all advances, and the principal issues a general invoice for advances, recorded in the intermediary’s journal and the principal’s sales book.


Other situations and solutions

Nuances for commission agents

If the commission agents carry out the purchase of any goods on their behalf for the committees, then the conclusion of the agreement occurs between the commission agents and sellers. When providing an invoice for the purchase of products on its own behalf on the basis of invoices from sellers, a sample of the form of a commission agent should be stored in a journal.

Important points to be considered by the broker:

  • for remuneration received by him, forms should be provided to the committees (both on the remuneration and on the goods);
  • accounts accepted from sellers are not subject to registration in the book of acquisitions;
  • an invoice issued by the commission agent in the name of the committees is reflected solely in relation to the amounts used as compensation for it;
  • accounts must be registered, drawn up by the committees according to the information received from the commissioners.

Mediation

Among the intermediary's main responsibilities is the execution of operations on their own behalf for the money provided by the guarantors, as well as the implementation of actions not only for the money of the guarantors, but also on their behalf. The second option involves issuing an invoice either on behalf of the guarantors to the client, or on behalf of the supplier to the guarantors.

The implementation of such operations requires a guarantee or agency agreement. However, there is no need to comply with the rules regarding the preparation of invoices and their storage.

Operations can be carried out on behalf of intermediaries if orders are executed in accordance with commission agreements, agency contracts, which provide for agents to perform actions on their own.

Simplified scheme

Enterprises operating on the simplified tax system, in some cases, must issue invoices and, as a result, fill out the register.

According to the decree of July 2019, this is required when the products are purchased from a foreign company located abroad but selling products in the Russian Federation, as well as when property is included in state and municipal funds.

Over the course of a 5-day period, the company operating under the “simplified system” issues an invoice to itself and makes its registration in the journal.

Correction of documents after delivery

The current legislation does not prescribe the obligation to submit a revised accounting journal if it was submitted to the Federal Tax Service, after which shortcomings were discovered in it. Nevertheless, it’s more advisable to correct the errors and send the edited version to the IFTS.

To make changes to the document, you must first cancel the incorrect account. This is done by reflecting the commodity price and tax amount with a minus sign and registering the correct version of the invoice with a plus sign.

Suppose, an intermediary was purchased for a customer for a product, and subsequently it was discovered in his accounting department that the accounting book for the second quarter contains incorrect details of the invoice received from the seller. The magazine itself has already been sent to the tax office.

In this case, the accountant in the 1st part of the journal invalidates the entry, and the total indicators are indicated with a minus sign. The next line is filled in the same way as canceled and the 12th column is corrected, in which the correct account number is indicated. Cost indicators are accompanied by a minus sign.

In the second part of the journal, the wrong entry is also canceled, but the 4th column is already corrected, in which the account number is corrected. At the same time, cost indicators are indicated with a plus sign, which serves as confirmation of their reliability.

Attention!

On August 22, 2017, the Government of the Russian Federation Decree No. 981 of August 19, 2017 appeared on the official publication portal, which adjusted the rules for filling out (maintaining) the documents used in calculating VAT. Decree No. 981 shall enter into force one month after the date of publication and not earlier than the first day of the next tax period for VAT, in other words, from October of the current year. The materials “Invoices: new rules” and “New rules for filling out books of purchases and sales” will help you familiarize yourself with the main points of the new rules.

Let's learn the new rules together. We suggest starting (in continuation of the previous topic) with a journal of maintaining invoices and the procedure for filling it out (Appendix 3 to Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 26, 2011 No. 1137).

Invoice Journal Form: Minor Changes

From October, the form of the accounting journal will take a slightly different look. The number of columns, their location will be the same, but the names of some of them change. In particular, columns 10 - 12 of part 1 will be referred to as “Information from invoices received from sellers”, and column 12 will contain a reference to adjustment invoices.

The journal also specified the place for the signature of an authorized person who signs in the journal of invoices for an individual entrepreneur.

Who is the magazine?

First of all, it is noteworthy that now the rules clearly define the circle of persons obliged to keep a record book. As now, the journal is kept on paper or in electronic form and only in the case of issuing and (or) receiving invoices when conducting business in the interests of another person on the basis of commission (subcommission) agreements, agency (sub-agent) agreements providing for the sale and (or) acquisition of goods (works, services), property rights(hereinafter - TRUIP) on behalf of the commission agent (subcommissioner), agent (subagent), on the basis of transport expedition agreements, in the performance of the functions of the builder(paragraph 1 of the rules).

The journal (in the above situations) must be filled out both by taxpayers, including acting tax agents, and exempted from the duties of a VAT payer in calculating and paying tax, as well as by persons who are not VAT payers.

For freight forwarders   “your” clause (1.1) has been introduced into the rules, specifying under what circumstances it is charged with the obligation to keep a journal:

    when carrying out entrepreneurial activity on the basis of transport expedition agreements;

    in the case of acquiring TRU on its own behalf, the cost of which is not included in the expenses in accordance with the terms of the concluded agreements (that is, when determining the tax base in the manner established by Chap. 23, 25, 26.1 and 26.2 of the Tax Code)

    if the income includes income in the form of remuneration in the performance of these agreements.

By the way, about remuneration in the performance of intermediary agreements (transport expedition, as well as in the performance of the functions of a builder, commission (sub-commission), agent (sub-agent), providing for the implementation and (or) acquisition of TRUIP on behalf of the commission agent (sub-commissioner), agent (sub-agent)), more precisely, about invoices for such incomes: it was clarified that they were not recorded in the journal (paragraph 1.2 of the Rules for maintaining an accounting journal).

Who does not keep a journal?

The rules are supplemented by a norm (Clause 1.3), which defines cases in which it is not necessary to keep an accounting journal. They relate to commission agents (agents):

    upon the implementation of TRIIP by VAT non-payers or buyers relieved of taxpayer duties related to the calculation and payment of tax, which invoices (subject to the written consent of the parties to the transaction) are not drawn up (paragraph 1 of clause 3 of article 169 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation);

    when TRUIP is implemented by a foreign person who is not registered with the tax authorities in the Russian Federation (Clause 5, Article 161 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation).

Another case can be added here (it follows from the analysis of clauses 1.1 and 1.3): the forwarder, which includes the cost of labor and labor acquired in its own name, is also not required to keep invoice ledgers.

How to fill out a magazine?

General Provisions

The accounting journal is filled in by the continuous method: invoices (including corrected, corrective) compiled on paper or in electronic form are subject to a single registration. In part 1 (“Issued invoices”) of the journal, in this case, invoices drawn up for the expired are recorded; in part 2 (“Received invoices”) - invoices received, inter alia, after the expiration of the tax period in which the document was drawn up by the buyer, but before the deadline for submitting a tax return for this period (the 25th day following the quarter months) or the deadline for submitting the accounting journal in the cases provided for in paragraph 5.2 of Art. 174 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation (the 20th day of the month following the quarter).

If the principal (principal), the buyer (client, investor) (hereinafter referred to as a group of persons will be referred to by buyer ) did not receive from the commission agent (agent), forwarder, developer or customer performing the functions of the developer (hereinafter - intermediary ), the invoice in electronic form, it is allowed to prepare such an invoice in paper form by the intermediary. All indicators (unchanged) from the electronic invoice are transferred to this document. But you need to supplement the details of the paper invoice with the signature of the chief accountant of the organization or other authorized person.

In part 1 of the accounting journal in this case, the intermediary only records the invoice on paper.

Note:after the intermediary issues invoices on paper, re-issuance of the document in electronic form is not allowed.

And if it becomes necessary to make changes to the previously electronic invoice (including in connection with the change of the authorized person who signed the invoice), the buyer is sent on paper with the details corrected in accordance with the rules for composing invoices, and indicating in line 1a the serial number of the correction and the date of correction. If the intermediary issued to the buyer, and the buyer received only the invoice with the corrected details, in part 1 of the accounting journal the intermediary only records the invoice with the corrected details.

Fill out the block on received invoices

In part 1 of the journal in columns 10-12 (see paragraphs “k” paragraph 7 of the rules), the intermediary reflects information:

    from invoices (customs declarations, applications for the import of goods and payment of indirect taxes) received by the intermediary from the supplier;

    from invoices drawn up in the performance of duties of a tax agent when acquiring TRU from an alien who is not registered with the tax authority.

Column 11 is not always filled in this case. So, the data on the invoice drawn up by the tax agent when acquiring TRU from a foreign person who is not registered with the tax authority are not reflected here; on the customs declaration in respect of goods imported into the territory of the Russian Federation; upon application for the import of goods and payment of indirect taxes.

We fill in the "cost" block

The rules are clarified how in a given situation to fill in columns 14 and 15 of the journal of accounting for issued invoices (paragraphs “o” and “p” p. 7).

Situation

The document on the basis of which the relevant data are reflected

Journal of accounting of issued invoices (fragment)

Box 14 “The cost of TRUIP on the invoice - total”

Box 15 “Including the amount of VAT on the invoice”

Import of goods into the territory of the Russian Federation

Customs declaration*

The cost of goods reflected in accounting

The amount of VAT from the column “Amount”, reflected by the code of the type of customs payment 5010 columns 47 of the main and (or) additional sheets of the customs declaration

Application for the importation of goods and payment of indirect taxes **

The tax base indicated in column 15 of the application

The amount of VAT reflected in column 20 of the application

Implementation by the agent (agent) of TRUIP:

- own and under an agreement with one principal (principal)

Invoice drawn up on behalf of the agent (agent)

The cost of TRUIP from column 9 on the line “Total for payment” of the invoice

The amount of VAT in relation to TRIIP sold under the commission agreement (agency agreement)

- under an agreement with two or more committees (principals)

The cost of TRUIP from column 9 for each invoice issued by the principal (principal) to the commission agent (agent)

The amount of VAT from column 8 on the line “Total payable” for each invoice issued by the principal (principal) to the commission agent (agent)

Acquisition by an intermediary *** of TRUIP on its own behalf for two or more buyers ****

Reseller Invoice

The cost of TRUIP from column 9 of each invoice issued by sellers in the share presented to each buyer

The amount of VAT from column 8 of each invoice issued by suppliers in a share presented to each buyer

* Column 4 of the journal reflects the registration number of the customs declaration. If there are several such declarations, registration numbers are indicated by a separator (semicolon).

** Column 4 of the journal reflects the number and date of the application for the import of goods and payment of indirect taxes (if there are several such applications, the corresponding data is separated by a semicolon).

*** Recall that we are talking about commission agents (agents), freight forwarders, developers or customers performing the functions of a developer.

**** In this case, buyers are understood as committees (principals), buyers (customers, investors).

Note:a similar approach is prescribed in the rules for filling in column 4 “Number and date of invoice”, as well as the “value” block (column 14, 15) of part 2 “Received invoices” of the accounting journal.

Let us once again draw attention to situations where the intermediary fixes in one invoice both his TRUIP and those that he implements under the contract as an intermediary (paragraphs “o”, clause 11 of the rules). In the journal of accounting (received and issued invoices), only information about those TRUIPs that relate to intermediary activities should be fixed. (Until 10/01/2017, it was not clear how to act in such situations.)

If an intermediary acquires TRUIP from several suppliers

A new paragraph appeared in the rules - 7.1, explaining how to fill in columns 10 - 15 in the event of an intermediary acquiring TRUIP from two or more suppliers on its own behalf. When registering invoices, the indicated columns shall reflect in separate positions the corresponding data from invoices issued by suppliers (including when paying for upcoming deliveries). These columns 15 of part 1 of the accounting journal for each buyer in total must correspond to the total data reflected in column 8 on the line “Total for payment” of the invoice drawn up by the intermediary.

We make corrections to the log

From October, a clear algorithm will appear on how to act in case you need to make changes or corrections to the journal of invoices. The bottom line is that you need to adjust the journal in the period in which the invoice (corrective invoice) was registered before corrections were made to it (paragraph 12 of the rules). The action plan is as follows:

    in a new line you need to write the data of the invoice (including the adjustment one), which must be excluded from the journal (with negative numbers);

    in the next line you need to write down the data of the invoice (adjustment invoice) with the changes made (with positive numbers).

If an extra invoice was registered in the journal, you need to make an entry about this invoice with negative numerical values \u200b\u200bfor the tax period in which the indicated invoice was erroneously recorded (including the correct one).

If the registration of the document is simply forgotten, data records on such an invoice (including an adjustment one) are made in a new line of the accounting journal for the tax period in which the invoice (including an adjustment one) is drawn up.

The updated data of the accounting journal are used to make changes to the tax return when it detects errors (distortions) made in the current tax period in the current tax period.
