Key Considerations for SAPinsiders  

Growing regulatory complexity is driving e-invoicing adoption. Recent indirect tax mandates, including value-added tax (VAT) and sales and use tax, call for organizations to adopt e-invoicing processes to facilitate real-time payment of tax obligations. Functionality, such as standardization and auto-population of invoice details in SAP e-invoicing, can help organizations remain compliant with changing tax mandates.

Consider redesigning invoicing processes to leverage SAP e-invoicing fully. This may include changes to how invoices are created, approved, and paid. It is essential to understand these requirements before starting the implementation and avoid mistakes.

Prioritize interoperability with SAP e-invoicing. One of the main benefits and latest trends of SAP e-invoicing is its interoperability with other SAP applications. This means that organizations can easily integrate their invoicing process with other applications across SAP S/4HANA Finance and ensure a seamless invoicing process.
