Custom services

An information system solution for handling customs matters should meet both the needs of companies active within the EU who must observe Intrastat data reporting duty, as well as the needs of companies who trade with non-EU countries and are thus subject to customs procedures.

In the area of customs, the Helios system is a tool for the comprehensive preparation of the customs process. It simplifies the preparation of monthly reports and customs declarations and can manage record-keeping for all types of tax and bonded warehouses or Inward Processing. Secure electronic communication with the "Portal of Public Administration" website is a standard feature.

Main areas of business affected by customs issues:

• Logistics and distribution
• Manufacture and subsequent export of goods
• Other business activities extending beyond Czech borders

Main company requirements for customs software:

• Intrastat
• Customs cases
• Simplified procedures
• NCTS
• ECS
• Bonded warehouse
• Tax warehouse
• Invoicing preparation
• Warranty documents
• Electronic signature

Advantages of Helios systeme solutions

How our system is better than IDES:

• possibility of continuous recording of business operations
• simple corrections of entered values
• consolidation of similar business transactions into one row of the monthly statement
• overview of record-keeping of documents for revised reports (credit notes and delinquent invoices)
• automatic creation of scheduled and revised reports from documents in progress
• process statements for a selective number of reporting units
• user-configured export of all entered data to Excel, text file or XML
• easy collection of data from company branches and their merger into company-wide statements
• possibility of entering non-mandatory data such as invoice number, license plate numbers, suppliers or customers
• possibility of connecting CMR to business operation "send"
• print statement prescribed by offi cial decree on clean A4 paper
• future outlook (Helios Customs will continue to be developed and improved, DES will be discontinued)

An absolutely unique feature in this software category are the options for configuring rights. Each user can be assigned absolutely individual access rights to each part of the program.

Helios offers reliability

For processing NCTS and ECS, it is extremely important that the declarant's program be reliable and error-free. According to official statistics from the General Directorate of Customs, the Helios Customs program (formerly called Customs IQ) is clearly the most used and most reliable declarant program in NCTS. Erroneous submissions among our users averaged two declarations out of a hundred, while the rate for competitors' programs is twice as high or more. Erroneous submissions cause financial losses in the form of drivers' waiting time, late delivery of goods to customers, etc.

Other reasons for choosing Helios systems as your solution

The Helios system's standards are the only to offer full integration of certified declarant software into the company's company-wide financial systems. If clients wish, they can thus fully integrate their customs procedures with other company agendas such as accounting, invoicing, warehousing (including bonded warehouses), transportation, manufacturing and freight. Our professional consultants and partners will gladly provide you with detailed information about this options as well as other information in the area of customs.

Helios is an open solution

Helios can work with other systems currently using IDES and which do not allow for switching to secure communication with the portal of public administration. You can thus continue to use your old software while using Helios as an intermediary for communication with the public administration portal.

Helios is modular

Customs is just one of several areas which businesses encounter during their activities. Almost all of them can be addressed using one of the Helios system's modules. Depending on your company's specific needs, you can choose from the following modules:

• Finance
• Commerce
• CRM
• Human Resources
• Management Reporting
• Manufacturing
• Transportation
• Forwarding
• Customs Software
• Agriculture
• Service
• Project Management
