SAP S/4HANA Finance Think Tank: SAP Document Compliance and Managing Global Real-Time E-Invoicing Requirements

Think Tanks connect you with peers navigating the same challenges and opportunities as you. ASUG will facilitate an interactive peer-to-peer exchange where solutions are shared for topics specific to your role and interest.

SAP Document Compliance is a global solution to address local requirements mandating the submission of electronic documents to authorities or business partners. Our approach has standardized as much as possible while still maintaining the ability to address local mandates.  

The format for Wednesday, Aug. 12 at 2 p.m. CT will include: 

  • Brief welcome and kickoff from ASUG 

  • Hot-topic discussion led by Global Digital Compliance Engagement Lead Martin Lin from SAP Globalization Services 

  • The discussion will focus on: 

  • Challenges of an increase in global E-Invoicing worldwide 

  • What separates SAP Document Compliance from the traditional approaches by third-party providers 

  • What countries are scope for the solution 

  • Sharing of recent wins or successes, along with resources utilized 

Gain visibility into the challenges and successes other SAP customers are experiencing, and acquire new ideas for real-world solutions.

Think Tank Insights:

  • Industry standard for global e-invoicing is shifting – companies want to movie beyond just having tax information post transaction, and instead having e-invoices available in real time. 

  • SAP Document Compliance stands out from the traditional approaches by third-party providers because of access to an extensive library of documents preconfigured by SAP and maintained as tax laws change. 

  • Many countries use the “Peppol model”, requiring public sector documents to be delivered outside of email. SAP uses SAP Cloud solution to facilitate this model while maintaining automated features and assuring compliance. 

  • E-document cockpit allows user to submit, monitor, and manage invoices and documents. Users can also generate pdfs, schedule batch sends, and in some cases secure and sign documents as well.
