Description
Within the payee record, if there is a change to a payee’s VAT/GST registration, this can be identified when a validity period is added. However, a validity period update may also contain other changes that are unrelated to the VAT/GST registration change and so to make it more apparent of the date of when a payee was either registered or de-registered for VAT/GST, these fields have been added to the payee record.
...
The fields are optional for entry so as not to cause any validation errors for historical records.
