The Cash Register Security Ordinance has mandated since 2020 that every electronic recording system must be equipped with a certified technical security device.TSE) must have. Every cash register transaction is thus immutably signed. The KassenSichV aims to prevent manipulation of cash register data and ensure tax auditability. Violations can lead to considerable penalties – from additional assessments to fines.
During a cash register audit, tax authority inspectors appear unregistered in operation and request access to cash register data, TSE logs, and receipt chains. Completeness, immutability, and DSFinV-K-compliant exports are checked. The check can cover a single day or a longer period. If discrepancies are found, this can lead to a regular audit with a significantly broader scope.
Three data access types are required: Z1 Immediate access to the recording system, Z2 (indirect access via an evaluation) and Z3 (Data carrier transfer, i.e., export of data for taking away). The data must be in DSFinV-K format, complete, and match the TSE signatures. Receipt4S® and POS Comply provide all three access methods directly from the system.
Receipt4S® is an SAP-certified solution for the archiving, auditing, and management of point-of-sale data — developed for SAP landscapes with high transaction volumes. The solution archives point-of-sale data in its original electronic format in a legally compliant manner, automatically checks for completeness and consistency, and makes all data available in DSFinV-K format for official access. Receipt4S® can be run both on-premise and in the cloud.
The decision depends on two factors: SAP implementation and company size. Receipt4S® is the choice for companies with an existing SAP landscape and a high volume of bills—deeply integrated, on-premise, or in the SAP cloud. POS Comply The Cloud-Bruder is for small and medium-sized businesses, even without an SAP system. Both meet the same compliance requirements (GoBD, KassenSichV), but differ in architecture and operating model.
Typical rollout: 6-12 weeks from order to productive use. For urgent audit reasons — such as announced tax audits or known cash register inspections — accelerated implementations are possible. We had customers who were productive in 4 weeks. With POS Comply, the cloud launch is typically faster because no on-premise installation is necessary.
Both solutions are POS-agnostic. For SAP Customer Checkout (CCO) Is there a pre-built deep integration? Other checkout systems — from classic ECR systems to modern POS platforms — are connected via standard interfaces. The only important thing is that the POS system can generate KassenSichV-compliant data; Receipt4S® or POS Comply then handle GoBD-compliant archiving and evaluation.
From October 1, 2025, TSE logs in the German Fiscal Cloud will be automatically deleted after 30 days. Those who have not established external, tamper-proof archiving will lose access to their own TSE data after this period and thus the legally compliant auditability. With Receipt4S®, TSE logs are backed up in your own tamper-proof archive before deletion, which corresponds to the statutory retention period of 10 years.
