Ensuring the reliability of statutory reports is essential for maintaining compliance and data accuracy. The DRC (Digital Reporting Compliance) report is a vital tool in meeting these requirements. This blog focuses on testing the DRC report with a supplier name containing exactly 40 characters, a common edge case that ensures data integrity and proper functionality.
Why Test with 40-Character Supplier Names?
A supplier name with 40 characters represents the upper limit for many SAP fields, making it an important test scenario to:
For running a DRC report we need to post an invoice for the specific country for which country we are running DRC and then we should run it.
Then we will get a document based on the development of DRC. There we could see the documents regarding withholding tax and the supplier name as well.
There we will be checking supplier names of 40 characters are taking or not. And also, we will get errors for some countries. If we get error due to40 characters, we’ll get that error as well. We will get to know which error is and we can resolve based on the information.
If we want to post an invoice, obviously we need a supplier / customer.
For creating supplier, we should go to BP t – code.
Give necessary details and click on save.
Now, we have to change BP role to Supplier (Fin. Accounting)
Add withholding tax type and code.
Click on save
Now, copy the supplier's name and go to FB60(Invoice posting)
Click on simulate
Actually, withholding tax amount would calculate. But here there is not tax rate for the specified tax type and code. And click on save.
After posting an invoice. We should run the DRC report at the front end.
For that we must go to front end system and open thus user i.e., AP_MANAGER_(COUNTRY_SPECIFIC)
After logging into the system, the Open run statutory reports app.
Give specific Report name and Report entity name and click on Go
After clicking on Go, we will get the reports need to be run based on Year or months as well
We should select recent year or month
From above, we should open the activity Withholding Tax Reporting
After that, click on run and give the values for Company codeand click on Run
We will get Status of In process right after clicking it.
Basically, we will get the document but due to some errors, we are getting status as Generated with errors
If we get generated successfully, we could see the documents. In those documents we could see the document and the supplier's name as 40 characters.
This is how we can test the DRC report with supplier as 40 characters maximum.
