Although already in force since January 1, 2020, many retailers have postponed the issue of KassenSichV until the last minute of the deadline extension (March 2021). Now the question arises: How did it go with the chosen IT solutions? Not always optimally, that much should be said in advance.

In addition, the standardized provision of data in the DSFinV-K Format.
This results in a huge amount of data that cannot just be safely shoved somewhere where it can collect dust peacefully. The data must also be retrievable in the event of an external audit by the tax authorities! If you take a quick look at how many receipts are generated each month in the stores of a discounter, for example, you can imagine that it adds up to quite a lot.
