Projects you will build
e-Invoicing configuration

Statutory reporting run
Configure a VAT report definition, run it with validation, produce a correction run and assemble submission evidence.
Tools you will use
- eDocument cockpit
- The daily working screen for submissions, statuses and rejections.
- eDocument type configuration
- Source determination, mapping and interface assignment.
- Integration Suite communication
- The integration layer that reaches tax authorities and networks.

Certification

What learners say
Rejection handling as a full project is exactly right. On a live mandate that is the entire job for the first month.
The clearance versus reporting model distinction is the thing our business never understood. Now I can explain it in one slide.
Deadline driven work means clients pay properly. This has been the most commercially useful course I have taken.
