Maybe we should have a heart-to-heart talk with the Brazilian SEFAZ, because they’re doing it again: mandating! The concept of Eventos is mandated to be implemented for Oil and Gas companies. But maybe we should forgive SEFAZ, because they’re doing it for the right reasons. Creating controls preventing transportation fraud as well as NF-e cancellations after the delivery of goods. Production Environment must be live for fuel distribution companies on March 1st, 2013 and for gas stations and resale companies on July 1st, 2013.
And now what?
What do oil & gas companies have to do? In short: the receiver of a NF-e or CT-e, a transportation invoice, will send an acknowledgement to the government for each document received. Functionality that your solution needs to have in order to comply with the full Eventos process includes:
- Inbound Nota Fiscal validation engine
- One Monitor to watch over the entire “process orchestration”
- Deep ERP integration to trigger and monitor the “Eventos” creation
- Ability to download the XML from the SEFAZ after the Acknowledgement Eventos is sent to the government
- Ability to coordinate the MIGO transaction in SAP
