SAP ECC Configuration

This setting determines if your project connects to SAP ECC. In order for this to work, you must be using SAP ECC version 4.6c or newer.

These settings are not available in the Kofax hosted multi-tenant Azure environment.

The settings at the top of the form that are related to the connection to your SAP ECC system are applied immediately. This ensure that a change in password or IP address of the server does not cause problems with documents that are already in-progress.

All other settings are applied to new documents only. Documents that are already in-progress use the settings that were in-place when their processing began.

The following settings are available:

This represents the archive where the image resides in an early archiving scenario, or the image that needs archived in a late archiving scenario. (Default: Blank) If the archive ID varies dramatically depending on the document, rather than processing that document, the destination archive ID is mapped from the image filename via the Settings > Invoice Processing > Global Settings > Import Settings. If a destination archive retrieved from the filename can be obtained through the mapping in the Settings > Invoice Processing > Global Settings > Import Settings, it overrides this setting.	Only available when Connect To SAP ECC is selected.

Activate SAP ECC Archiving User Exit	If selected, Kofax AP Agility runs the code in the SAPArchiving user exit in order to archive the image via SAP ECC, instead of the standard system function. (Default: Cleared) A destination archive is needed for this to occur, either derived from the filename mapping in the Settings > Invoice Processing > Global Settings > Import Settings, or the value in the Destination Archive setting above. The Archive As PDF and SAP ECC Archiving Function settings above do not apply if the user exit is being used.	Only available when Connect To SAP ECC and Archive Via SAP ECC are selected.

Always Send Withholding Tax	If selected, withholding tax information is always be sent to SAP ECC via the BAPI call at the time or export, regardless if a withholding tax amount has been captured from the document. If more than one active withholding tax code exists on the vendor master, the document is parked. (Default: Cleared)	Only available when Connect To SAP ECC is selected.
Convert WBS Elements	If selected, Kofax AP Agility converts the external WBS element retrieved from the lookup, to the purchase order account assignment in SAP ECC, to the internal WBS element required for invoice posting. (Default: Cleared) The call to SAP ECC uses the RFC_READ_TABLE BAPI call, although this can be changed using the RFC Read Table Function setting above. This parameter is called once per WBS element that needs converted. Hence, for an invoice with multiple account assignments with multiple WBS elements, it will be called once per WBS element.	Only available when Connect To SAP ECC is selected.
Downpayment SGL Codes	This is a list of the single character SAP ECC special general ledger indicators that are used to denote a down-payment. The list does not need to be separated by any special characters. (Default: A)	Only available when Connect To SAP ECC is selected.
