Have started testing first release of Kazakhstani add- on.
Last time I worked with add-on, but Russian one, was years and years ago, that was my first ever full- lifecycle implementation experience, for financial institution, we were the first ones to implement SAP for financial intermediaries in Kazakhstan. If I am not wrong, it was 2004 or 2005, when the project started.
So speaking of add- ons, my first experience wasn't quite productive, at the end of the day, they've decided not to use Russian add -on, cause that one was very raw, no one knew exactly how to work with it, and most important, we didn't know how to adapt it to local legal requirements.
And then I did, as I always do, actually- I just go to ABAP department and tell them 'I want this to be this way' and that's it :) Everybody were happy, no one really did care, how the system works, just show the output, that convince everybody- regular accountants, people accountable for financial statements, auditors, managers, executives and etc.
But today situation is changing, in a good way, I would say.
So they've released first version of add- on accustomed according to Kazakhstani legal requirements. What I've seen so far, is Financial ,let's say, pre- customization stuff.
Surely, using that add- on will significantly reduce the amount of time you normally spend on configurations. But from my point of view, it is way too raw still.
For instances, where am I supposed to activate country specific fields for fixed assets. Surely will have to troubleshoot next week. Activating tab layout for tax time- dependent fields is not working. Most of the tables are referring to tables and views from Russian add- on, that would be just great, if SAP people could at least mention this link in their help files. Check this when you're trying to do basic configurations for transport tax. It took me 1.5 days to do all the configurations and filling all the tables out, just to make transport tax report work. If I would do it, the way I used to, i.e. by using ABAP coding, it would take me a week, or five days in best case scenario, just to develop two forms for transport tax- current payments and final declaration. So results are quite impressive, I would say. And it will ,definitely, change the whole concept of implementing SAP solutions. But let's see how it is going to be.. I am a bit skeptical still, I really want my skepticism to be ruined, so fingers crossed. Property tax configurations are pretty similar- go through all of the tables related to taxation- districts, regions, OKATO codes, assign OKATO codes to districst, define tax rates, and MAIN thing- ACTIVATE country- specific fields, which is an issue.
Next I need to test VAT invoice print form.
To activate the Kazakhstani add -on, go to IMG SPRO and pick the 'Activate business extension' and there you have it, enjoy! :)
