Purpose
With the Electronic Data Transmission to Authoritiesadministration report (FOT_B2A_ADMIN) you can electronically exchangedata with an authority (such as send tax-relevant data from financialaccounting to a tax authority) and log the exchange.
When you start the report, first select the reporting data that youcreated earlier with the report for advance return for tax on sa
les/purchases (RFUMSV00). You get an output list in which you can check,select and transfer the data to an authority. Once you have sent areturn, you can issue the transfer log of the transfer here.
If you want to create a VAT refund application, you must determine therelevant reporting data using the VAT Refund report (RFUMSRVG00) and addit to the reporting portfolio of the VAT refund. The reporting data isconsolidated periodically (once a month, for example).
