Inventory Ownership and Custody Reporting for Brazil

The Brazil Reports SuiteApp allows you to effectively assess your inventory by generating an inventory ownership and custody report. This report is crucial for listing inventory items involved in inbound and outbound deliveries, alongside their respective ownership and custody statuses. Notably, this report is a prerequisite for generating the EFD ICMS IPI file, which is essential for compliance if you are handling such transactions.

To ensure accurate reporting, it is necessary to associate an inventory ownership and custody type with the relevant location of your transactions. Failing to do this could lead to discrepancies and compliance issues. Here’s more on how to manage this:
