This SAP solution can be integrated into the SAP ECC and SAP S\/HANA system. The solution is compliant with the country-specific legal requirements of the available solutions worldwide, such as Italy, Spain, T\u00fcrkiye, Mexico, France and many more. All the electronic documents of the different countries can be found and managed in the eDocument Cockpit. From this point, you can access the documents, view the XML and\/or PDF file and send it to or receive it from the third party or government. Depending on the country, other actions are available. For France, the electronic invoices and electronic reports will be accessible in the eDocument Cockpit where further steps can be undertaken. This means that the solution can provide an end-to-end solution which automatically generates the required XML file based on the information from the created documents in SD or FI.<\/p><p>After sending the XML, it passes through document and reporting compliance cloud edition on to the tax authority platform of the government. Here the XML will be signed.<\/p><p>In France, SAP will connect to the PPF directly.
