Using transit departure templates

You can use a template in a transit departure. Templates can be assigned content on the header or item level of transit declarations.

How to apply a template:

  1. At the header level: Go to Customs − Switzerland − Transit departures (CH) and click on New from template.
  2. At the item level: Open the relevant item and click on New from template on the Items sheet.
  3. From the Transit departure templates window, select a template, then click Apply.
  1. A new transit declaration or item opens. The field values have already been copied from the template.

Please refer to section Creating and editing transit departure templates for more information on creating and editing templates. To learn how to apply templates automatically, see Defining template selectors.

Restricting the selection of templates (“Matching templates”)

You can limit the selection of templates to those matching the open declaration or its items. It’s possible that a certain template was created for a certain e-customs system, for example, or for the defined declarant/exporter.

  1. Open a declaration (or item) and proceed as described above to apply a template.
  2. In the window that opens, check the Matching templates box and click on Search.
  3. Only templates that match the selected declaration are displayed.
  4. Select a template from the list. Click Apply to confirm.

Matching templates are configured through template selectors. You can open the template selector for a matching template by right-clicking on the matching template and selecting Show matching templ. selector. Refer as well to Defining template selectors.
