Remarks:
1. There is no specific field for any calculation base exclusions (unconditional discount, ICMS on acquisition). The exclusion adjustment must be made directly in the calculation base field.
2. Record used subsidiarily, for exceptional cases of documentation that should not be informed in the other records of the bookkeeping and where the ICMS was indicated.
Regarding the records F120 – Assets Incorporated to Fixed Assets – Credit-Generating Transactions based on Depreciation and Amortization Charges and F130 – Assets Incorporated to Fixed Assets – Credit-Generating Transactions based on Acquisition/Contribution Value, any values that should be excluded from the calculation base of these credits are always informed, respectively, in the fields “07 – PARC_OPER_NAO_BC_CRED – Portion of the Value of Depreciation/Amortization Charge to be excluded from the Credit calculation base” or “08 – PARC_OPER_NAO_BC_CRED – Portion of the Acquisition Value to be excluded from the Credit calculation base”.
