On August 5, 2022, the internal technical instructions were updated, and new corrections were made to the Electronic Invoice System-SEF.

The new changes to the SEF include:

  • The possibility of automatic registration of companies in SEF – All companies that are not budget users and are not already registered in SEF will be able to register automatically thanks to the implementation of the new mechanism for automatic registration.
  • The possibility to filter by date when searching for individual and summary VAT records – The ability to filter results by date for API calls to search for Individual and Aggregate VAT records is added.
  • The possibility of recording transactions in foreign currency – It is possible to create a document in foreign currency. When selecting a foreign currency, the user must also enter the dinar exchange rate for that currency so that the system will recalculate and display the basis and VAT in dinars.

In addition to the new changes, certain corrections to the SEF were also made:

  • the mark “Calculate VAT in RSD” was removed from the PDF document;
  • when a user of public funds is added to contacts, JBKJS is no longer entered in the field provided for the personal identification number;
  • it is impossible to change the status of the document from “Error when sending” to “Draft”;
  • added an error message for using special characters in comments that are not accepted by CRF;
  • it is possible to update data on the business entity from the competent institution even in cases where some of the data does not exist in the competent institution;
  • it is no longer possible to enter a number with more than two decimal places in the field for entering a discount at the item level;
  • typo correction in the message that notifies that the download of the document will start;
  • the “Service ID” field has been removed;
  • the “Model by number” field is limited to 2 characters and only accepts numbers. The aforementioned change is shown on page 215 of the Internal Technical Instruction;
  • the error that appeared after replacing the “Basis for VAT exemption/exemption” after updating the draft document was removed.
