As the GST Bill is passed, SAP is currently working on the solution part of it. Once the solution is ready, it will be available on the service market place. Now till the solution is rolled out to the customers, the only below pre-requisites needs to be followed by them as mentioned.
- Customers are recommended to be at minimum support pack levels as per note 1175384 (Component is SAP_APPL) to obtain further support for legal changes in India Logistics and Indirect Taxes.
