From January 2025, Polish entrepreneurs will have to face a
with a new legal obligation - the introduction of the Single Control File for corporate income tax, or JPK CIT.
In the article, we will look at what the CIT JPK is, what its consequences will be for entrepreneurs, and what measures are worth taking to properly prepare for the upcoming changes.
Through careful analysis and extrapolation of report file sizes, we were able to keep the amount of reported data at a reasonable level. This process included a detailed analysis of the types of data recorded and their growth patterns over time. Our approach required a deep understanding not only of the technical aspects of report generation, but also of the business needs these reports were intended to meet.
W dzisiejszym dynamicznym środowisku biznesowym, jednym z kluczowych narzędzi, które zrewolucjonizowało sposób,
w jaki przedsiębiorcy raportują swoje dane finansowe i księgowe, jest Jednolity Plik Kontrolny (JPK). Jego wprowadzenie stanowiło odpowiedź na potrzeby efektywniejszej kontroli podatkowej, a także walki z oszustwami podatkowymi, zwłaszcza w zakresie podatku VAT.
SAP software is a widely used technology around the world, utilized by various businesses, huge corporations, and even small companies. SAP has clients in over 180 countries. It's pretty pricey software because it comes with a range of costs, including fees for named user licenses.
Regardless of the size of the company, document flow is the foundation of effective and efficient management. The effectiveness of decision-making and daily operations depends on how documents are shared. An Electronic Document Workflow is a tool that organizes and streamlines the document management process within a company.
The only task of IES is to extract data from documents and transmit them back to SAP, which in practice means a reduction in data entry work and automation of the process. Unlike previous OCR systems dedicated to VIM (we are talking about ICC - Invoice Capture Center and BCC - Business Capture Center), IES is a solution based primarily on a patented Machine Learning mechanism, self-improving during document processing. The mechanism learns during validation or after the SAP approval process is over.
Answering the question posed in this way, the answer is simple - no.
But incomplete, because simply no system will ever be secure. On the other hand, it is not that we cannot strive for safety - quite the contrary. It all comes down to risk management, risk acceptance, but most importantly risk awareness. So what are the biggest challenges in SAP security?
Due to the lack of widespread good solutions in this area, document flow processes are evolving very slowly. Moreover, they often stem from internal attempts to improve the process.
Nevertheless, awareness of the need in the area of better document control is definitely growing. It is dictated not only by changing business requirements, but above all by the need to free up, if only time resources to redirect them
into the most relevant places for the development of the organization.
SAP software is a frequently used technology all over the world, used by various businesses and corporations, small or larger companies. However, the purchase and implementation of SAP software involves huge expenses for SAP software licenses. Locking accounts or deleting them doesn't always help reduce costs and fix problems during SAP's annual license audit. Why is this the case and can we fix the situations?
Today we would like to highlight a very important issue in the area of SAP authorization security. In addition to one-off role and SOD reorganization projects, issues such as maintaining the authorization concept developed on the project and the administrative-process order in roles are equally important. How do we prevent "turn-offs" of our post-project assumptions and avoid role clutter? One solution is to introduce cyclic checks. They will ensure that we are not only mentally comfortable, but also properly prepared before the visit of an external audit.
The years 2022 and 2023 were revolutionary for invoice exchange also in Poland. This is all due to a new regulation that introduced the National e-Invoice System (KSeF). What is KSeF? It's a central government system designed to facilitate the electronic exchange of invoices between business entities.
Today, companies are growing faster than ever thanks to IT. Servers, networks, operating systems, databases, etc. While it's possible, it's hard to imagine an enterprise without the support of devices and software. And just as in the past paper documents were physically protected from destruction, prying eyes, so today we are backing up and introducing methods of access and authentication to digital data. There are many such places with data, they are scattered, different from each other, access to them is done in different ways.
At the conference on SAP Security - Tips for Security, I shared with you the knowledge I've gained from both SoD and authorizations reorganization projects and daily tasks in Managed Services. For those of you who could not attend the conference, we have prepared a brief summary.
SAP is secure in itself. However, it is up to the customer's actions to take care of data security issues. In this particular context, it is impossible to ignore the inventory benefits of dedicated SAP Security tools.
Backups are an exact copy of our organization's most important data. Such backups should be kept off the affected system - so that a potential failure or attack does not deprive us of access to all our data.
You may already know that as of SAP 7.40 SP8, you can use SAP security policies (SECPOL) to define user-specific security parameters, as opposed to system profile values.
SAP HANA is an in-memory high-speed data access concept. It allows the analysis of large, often unaggregated, amounts of data, in a much faster way than in other databases. Data handling in SAP HANA is very different from what we know from SAP NetWeaver. It has its own system for managing users and authorizations.
Business Doesn't Like Chaos and Hates Uncertainty
Roles, permissions, and authorizations in SAP are a vast topic that we've discussed several times before.
We talked about the dangers that arise from a lack of a clear permissions concept, poorly managed processes for granting them, and the associated risks for organizations. Today, in this new reality for many businesses, the topic is even more "hot."
It is worth noting that in the case of reorganization of authorizations, it is also possible to apply the so-called "creeping project", that is, we fix and seal the system step by step. This is a good option when we have few human resources, time and money for a big reorganization project.
SAL will ensure the security of the system only if it is properly configured (SM19/RSAU_CONFIG) AND looked after (SM20/RSAU_READ_LOG), and if access to it is strictly limited and controlled. Both the Basis department and security key users (auditors) have something to say at the configuration.
What are SAP notes? Generalizing, we can say that they are small updates to the software - they contain corrections to the code, include a description of the problem, etc. Their second role is support, which does not contain corrections/updates but documents a specific problem, often in broad terms.
How do you prepare for it with SAST and what benefits does it bring to the organization? Any thought on increasing security in an organization that takes the form of a plan or at least a discussion is worthy of consideration.
SAST's Super User Management module offers a feature that allows users to work without SAP_ALL or other critical authorizations on the production system.
It is estimated that by 2020, about 30% companies globally will start using S4/HANA in production (in 2018, only 2% of all companies were using S4). I will discuss two areas that should be addressed if we are to raise (or maintain a high) security level of the target system - authorization and technical level.

ECM (Enterprise Content Management) systems, or information resource management systems, are becoming increasingly common in enterprises, and their users are increasing in proportion to the growing volume of content that enterprises handle. The mass digitization of documents, has not only made it possible to speed up hitherto analog processes, but has provided completely new possibilities for shaping them, which has significantly affected the efficiency of their processing.
In today’s digital age, collecting vast amounts of data has become common for organizations across various sectors. One frequently discussed issue is how to effectively manage this data to ensure smooth operations. This is where data archiving in the SAP system plays a key role.
OpenText™ Core Capture is a SaaS information capture application that uses continuous machine learning to automate intelligent file classification and data extraction. Core Capture combines standard capture features, such as optical character recognition (OCR), with powerful artificial intelligence technology to enable intelligent document processing and securely route information to the right users and systems.

The following post contains a synopsis of the work carried out for one of SAST's clients, the main core of which was the optimization of authorization and user access was also implemented remodeling of the authorization concept.
It is worth acknowledging that migration to S/4 HANA gives customers not only a new landscape and new functionalities, but also a new price list for SAP services and products.
Reducing IT costs is a constantly recurring aspect of budget planning for many organizations.
In the case of an SAP environment, licensing costs are often a particularly large contributor to overall IT costs.
Often, too, the organization regularly conducts a review of its licenses to find savings.
In today's tip, we discuss how to take the first step toward lowering SAP license costs.
Migrating to the SAP S/4HANA system is a step that more and more companies are taking to align their organization with the demands of the modern business world. However, before diving into this process, there's a crucial step that can lead to significant savings – optimizing your SAP licenses.

Managing a business nowadays is almost impossible without using advanced information technologies. One of the most popular tools in this category is the SAP ERP system. It significantly simplifies running a company and helps management make decisions, which in turn gives managers the ability to work efficiently.

Our approach required a deep understanding not only of the technical aspects of report generation, but also of the business needs these reports were intended to meet.
To accurately estimate the duration of the migration, we conducted intensive and multiple test migrations with sample documents. This hands-on approach allowed us to gather real data on transfer speeds and potential bottlenecks, providing a solid foundation for our estimates. This process was crucial for understanding the actual conditions under which the full migration will take place.
In a recent project, we carried out a comprehensive analysis of document versions in the source system, investigating their number, volume and number of versions per document. Our investigation revealed numerous documents with hundreds of versions, including instances with more than 800 versions per document. Often each version stored was several hundred megabytes in size, highlighting the significant data volume challenge we faced.
