[Bug 876200] Re: [base_vat] Basic VAT check when country specific check not defined in the module

 

Hello Vishal,

I'm using version 6.0.3

What I mean is, if you enter country code + vat number for a country
which does not include a specific validation module, the application
will issue the error message "The Vat does not seems to be correct. You
should have entered something like this : Country Code + Vat Number",
and won't allow the VAT to be entered.

If the country code is not entered, the application issues the error
message "The VAT is invalid, It should begin with the country code".

For example, enter AR03023023, for Argentina VAT. The system won't allow
to enter this VAT.

Title:
  [base_vat] Basic VAT check when country specific check not defined in
  the module

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The module base_vat does not consider all VAT countries worldwide.

  In case that a country specific validation is not defined in the
  base_vat module, only a basic country check should be performed, but
  otherwise should allow the VAT code to be introduced.

  The basic check should be as per
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VAT_identification_number#VAT_numbers_by_countries:

  The full identifier starts with an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code
  (except for Greece which uses the non-standard country code EL) and
  then has between 5 and 12 characters. These 5 to 12 characters are
  numeric in most countries but in some countries they may contain
  letters.
