method GetVatTransactionType

Description

Gets the default transaction type based on the input parameters.
At least Country IDs or codes should be specified.
As the method compares Country IDs plus EU indicators it is better to specify also these indicators if you know them Otherwise the method will retrieve them for given counties itself.

Parameters

icVatInOut	input	character	Indicates Input/Output VAT
iiOwnVatCountryId	input	integer	Own country ID
icOwnVatCountryCode	input	character	Own Vat Country Code
ilOwnVatCountryIsEU	input	logical	Indicates EU country
icStartVatCountryCode	input	character	Starting point (country) of the Vat transaction
ilStartVatCountryIsEU	input	logical	Indicates EU country
icEndVatCountryCode	input	character	Ending point (country) of the Vat transaction
ilEndVatCountryIsEU	input	logical	Indicates EU country
ocVatTransactionType	output	character	Vat transaction type corresponding to the given input parameters
oiReturnStatus	output	integer	Return status of the method.
