What is EMCS
EMCS is an EU-wide computer system that’s used to record duty suspended movements of excise goods taking place within the EU.
How does this interact with Vision Warehousing
The EMCS discharge and the request for a new ARC are seemlessly seamlessly built into the existing processing with Vision Warehousing.
VW Goods Inwards
With the pre-advice header and then EMCS tab you are able to select the ARC for the inbound goods and then discharge the goods, should you need to modify the receipt then you can perform this directly from the VW goods inwards screen.
Further information can be found at
VW Goods Outwards
Withdrawals from the warehouse which require the generation of an ARC for the goods are performed automatically at the point of confirm picking or despatch, at this point the final registration number for of the vehicle needs to be entered.
The system will then obtain an ARC reference and automatically add it to the delivery note, the delivery note will not print without the ARC unless it has been force printed.
EMCS Menu
This menu is designed to provide you with an overview of all open and outstanding ARC’s which are on the EMCS system, during normal operations and where there are no issues this area does not need to be used however when there are issues you will need to enter here to resolve them.
The buttons are Split into three main sections
Goods Arriving
Goods Leaving
Others
Each of the buttons in the sections provides access to a form where you can find out more information.
For information on each of the buttons, the screens and the multitude of tabs related to the EMCS Data Interchange see the links in the tree view to the left of this page.

e-AAD (Arriving and Leaving)Use this screen to Search and Edit e-AAD Submissions and Responses to and from HMRC.
Scroll right to see more columns including the Duty Liability column. This field shows the duty value of the submission which is the amount that would have to be paid by the Transport Guarantor should the goods be lost in transit. You will see this tab when you click the e-AADs button and click search (providing it finds some e-AADs to display). There are also tabs within this tab These tabs (Requires Attention, Awaiting Submission, and All) are methods to quickly filter the results you see. For the most part, the fields and layout remain the same for each tab but there are a few fields that exist on one tab and not the others and by default, some of the buttons will become enabled or disabled (greyed out) depending on which tab is clicked. To keep the wiki simple as we can, we will list all fields regardless of which tab they show on and all buttons regardless of whether they are greyed out or not. Buttons to the Right of the Screen
