We are not yet at the certification stage in Germany but this will come
as well in the years to come. The first requirement is to have this
reports in good shape. Secondly there is law underway that requires
secure and per person logon to the cashiers (in effect by 2020). We
will have a strategy meeting with one of our customers today. It is
very likely that we will focus on the POS / Cashiers first. So i am
gonna write a short spec on what we need and review at least v10 POS to
see whether it is are already compliant with the standard or what is
still missing.

Well yes and no. You know tax authorities never sleep especially in
Northern Europe on their ways to enforce law to render business conduct
ever more cumbersome. Having said so, they require not only the main
taxation systems (in most cases for SME in Germany this will be Datev)
but also ALL auxiliary systems to comply with the standards. This
requirement was in effect and could be derived from a law called GdPDU
since 2001 but got a review and enforcement with the newly issues law
called GoBD that is in effect since 01/2015 with now excuses since
01/2017

As always one (especially our focus group) cannot to all in one,
because this would effectively mean shutting down ordinary business to
focus on complying with law. But what is very important is to start out
with the most important requirements on that list. And that is what we
gonna pursue with our customers in the weeks, month and even years to
come.

Unfortunately this requires to asses ALL systems that contain business
relevant data (i.e. E-Mail, DMS, ERP as well as all interfaces), so
plenty of work to be done here.

Kind regards

Frederik
