Issue

Many SAP standard reports commonly used for Tax Reporting purposes in SAP ECC have run out of SAP support and have been replaced with reports in the Document and Reporting Compliance (DRC) framework available in S/4 HANA. The usage of SAP DRC in S/4 HANA has implications on licensing requirements as well as other project considerations such as training needs and business process change and shall therefore be assessed further as part of this KDD.

Recommendation

Background & Context

SAP DRC in S/4 HANA for statutory reporting purposes is a powerful tool that facilitates monitoring, preparation and submission of numerous statutory reports to government and fiscal authorities but many of its functionalities require additional licensing.

Syensqo is currently using various tax applications for compliance, reporting and lodging purposes. While some of these applications allow for seamless integration with SAP as the source system, the business is still relying on support reports from the underlying SAP transactional accounting system especially in countries where no automated solution is in place for tax reporting and submissions.
