Electronic document consistency check, requires DRC license

Tax authorities around the world have been continuously increasing the complexity of legal mandates. In some
jurisdictions, they have been moving toward continuous transactions controls. This has led to businesses
having to send business transactional documents before the transactions take place.

In this context, we offer “SAP Document and Reporting Compliance” to enable and automate compliance with
SAP S/4HANA. In the latest 2023 release, we have added a set of new apps to check consistency of electronic
documents. These apps help you verify whether your electronic documents (also known as eDocument) stored
in the SAP system are consistent with those stored in the tax authority’s system to prevent any compliance
issue at period end.

Automated Supervision of Closing Tasks with Account Balance Validation

During the financial close process, you need to validate data quality to ensure the accuracy, completeness and
compliance of balance sheet and profit and loss accounts. This new feature within SAP S/4HANA helps you
with exactly that by letting you easily define and execute account balance validation rules on various financial
positions and other dimensions such as cost object, profit center or segment.

Furthermore, you can automate validations by plugging in SAP S/4HANA Cloud for advanced financial
closing (an application on SAP Business Technology Platform). Combined with it, validations will be started
automatically based on either a fixed date/time or based on a certain status of predecessor tasks. For example,
you can run preventive validations prior to a closing task to avoid execution errors in a closing job.
Alternatively, you can run validations after certain closing tasks are performed. Or you can also do milestone
validations. By adding these rules to your closing task list, you orchestrate your tasks based on the results
gaining further control and improving the quality of your close – without adding extra manual tasks to your
close. You’ll only be notified when any of them fails and needs your attention.
