Dear Community,

As know from ECC 6.0 there was the possibility to use the Business Connector wirh ERiC library to connect to the german financial department.
How this could be done in SAP S/4 HANA Cloud?

Can be checked in note:

There is a pdf attached which tells the reader the following:

Now back to my Topic/Question:

Hello Sascha,

as far as I know the interface between Elster and S4HC is planned but not yet exist. Current procedure is 1. Create an Advance Return for Tax on Sales/Purchases and download .xml file in S4HC

2. and then manually upload this file in Elster Software
