Voluntary e-invoicing : There are taxpayers for whom e-invoicing is voluntary as of April 2020 (based on annual turnover thresholds). We could therefore still have vendor invoices without any e-invoicesto auto-populate the GSTN data. In other words, vendor GST reconciliation would still be relevant for organizations having such vendors in the Accounts Payable cycle.
Since there is a need for GST Returns / reconciliation solution even beyond the e-invoice rollout, integration of applications would be even more important. Are there any outward supplies done without e-invoice? If the supply comes under the revised provisions of Rule 48 (Manner of issuing invoice) under the CGST Rules, Part A (Chapter VI), such an invoice is invalid. From an audit perspective, reports linking all relevant invoices with a valid e-invoice would be important.
We believe in empowering the business users in such a way that they can do e-invoice generation without worrying at all about the technical details (data validation, transformation, schema validation, JSON conversion, authentications, encryption, API calls etc.).
'E-invoicing' or 'electronic invoicing' is a system in which B2B invoices are authenticated electronically by GSTN/IRP portal of Government of India.

For SAP customers moving to S/4HANA, adopting a "Clean Core" strategy is key to long-term success. In this post, we introduce the Clean Core concept – keeping the SAP S/4HANA digital core clean by performing custom developments on the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) – and explain why this approach preserves upgradability and system stability.
