SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION Data Elements SAFT_INV_SEL_SRC_KK Extraction Rule Definition Specifies which source documents are to be extracted for the SAF-T files based on the following criteria: Documents with or without official document number and/or Documents with or without digital signature By selecting Exclude, you explicitly specify that for the defined posting period, the combination of document types origin keys defined in the rule should not considered for the generation of SAF-T files. Use The selection done in this field, along with the other rule conditions defined by you in the customizing, will be stored in temporary tables. This data will be the source for the generation of the SAF-T files for the Portuguese authorities. SAFT_EXT_PROCTYP_KK Process type (used only for customer extension) Definition Specifies a unique name for a function module.
Report Documentation RFKKPTSAFT SAFT: Source Document Extraction Purpose You use this report to store in temporary tables the data of FI-CA source documents relevant for the generation of SAF-T files for the Portuguese authorities. The report XML File Creation (Portugal) (RSAFT_PT_XML) accesses the information stored in these tables to generate the SAF-T files in XML format. Prerequisites You have defined the rules to select the relevant source documents for a given posting period in the Customizing activity Define Extraction Rules of Source Documents for SAF-T Files Output After you run the report, the data that matches the selection you have done is stored in the temporary tables and can be accessed by the report XML File Creation (Portugal) (RSAFT_PT_XML) for further processing. Activities You must define for which application area, company code, and posting period you want to run the report to.
Customizing View Cluster VCFKKSAFTINV_RULE Define Extraction Rules of Source Documents for SAF-T Files Use In this Customizing activity, you can define rules to select the source documents to be listed in the Standard Audit File for Tax Purposes (SAF-T-PT) XML file that is generated for the Portuguese authorities. Requirements You have done the customizing in Enter Data for Tax Codes Activities You can define as many rules as necessary for a given company code by selecting different combinations of document type forms, origin keys, and posting dates, as well as specifying if the documents are issued with or without official document numbering and/or must be digitally signed.

For instance, in case the definition of the official document number for your documents is alphanumeric, you assign a function module that selects only the numeric part of the official document number and forwards it to SAF-T file.
APPLICATION HELP Creating SAFT-PT Files with DART In Portugal, you are required to create a standard data export file called Standard Audit File for Tax Purposes (SAFT-PT) to store all tax-relevant data in XML format and submit the file to the tax authorities for tax auditing purposes when required. To create the XML files, you follow the standard procedure of the Data Retention Tool (DART) and the process described below. Note You must use DART, version 2.4 or higher. End of the note.

You can download the file to your local workstation and submit it to the tax authorities when required. Due to the large data volume, the procedure of creating the XML file can consume a large amount of memory, especially on 32 bit platforms, and memory problems may arise during the program execution. If the system is unable to create one standard data export file, you must create several files first by splitting data as described in Processing of Large Data Volume. You need to submit the XML file to the tax authorities for tax auditing purposes, when they request them. Prerequisites You have made settings as described in Customizing for SAFT-PT File Creation with DART In addition, you have implemented the necessary coding in function module PT_USER_EXIT_DART on the SAP Easy Access screen, by choosing Tools ABAP Workbench Development Function Builder.

SAFT-PT: XML File Creation You use this report to create an XML file from each flat file the data retention tool (DART) tool generated as a result of the data extraction. You can use this report for all company codes with small to large amount of data. Prerequisites You have extracted the tax-relevant data with DART as described in Creating SAFT-PT Files with DART. Features Selection In the DART Data group box, enter the required data about the flat file from which you want to generate the XML file. In the Master Data: Products group box, specify the plants for which you want to generate the XML file. In the XML File Data group box, enter the header data of the XML file as required, and in the File Name field, enter the name of the target file. Note The system validates if the file path entered by the user aligns with the file system configurations authenticated for the report. The file system configuration includes a logical file name (FI_SAFT_XML_FILE_NAME) and a logical file path (FI_SAFT_FILE_PATH), associated with the report. You should maintain the physical file path that you need to use in this report, against the logical file path FI_SAFT_FILE_PATH using transaction FILE. End of the note. You can create the XML file per sales office by specifying the corresponding sales office in the Sales Office field.
