Opti.View – GoBD (GDPdU) data analysis and conversion

Opti.View is a powerful software programme for analysing GoBD (GDPdU) data.

When the tax inspector comes calling, they will request data relevant to the audit – usually retrospectively, covering a lengthy period. Fortunate indeed is the person who has a clear overview of this data. Whilst most ERP systems are capable of generating the data, this does not mean that it is transparent to users. Ultimately, this means that business owners often have no idea whatsoever as to the quality of the data the tax inspector is actually seeing. And that can potentially prove very costly and lucrative for the Federal Ministry of Finance will be.

Opti.View allows you to analyse this data. A closer analysis of the data reveals potential problems. The software is not only capable of generating data in compliance with legal requirements, but also of visualising the output data. Regardless of whether the data is in the GDPdU description standard or as Electronic balance sheet Structural data is available. This means you can check what the tax inspector will see. In addition, we have integrated the InfoZoom analysis tool into our solution.

When used in conjunction with the Opti.Dart product, Opti.View enables the direct analysis of SAP data without the need for the time-consuming creation of views within SAP itself.

What is InfoZoom?

The visual method developed at the Fraunhofer Institute makes all data understandable at a glance. For example, when analysing data covering the past three years, InfoZoom allows you, with just a few clicks, to filter out extreme values (such as maximum or minimum amounts) or inconsistencies from the data jungle, organise these entries and thus identify in no time at all where the tax auditor might uncover grounds for an investigation.

• The volume and type of data are irrelevant to the tool. The systematic organisation is derived automatically from the existing data.
• Users can navigate their database completely intuitively and independently. With just a few clicks, search criteria can be combined as required and relevant results identified on the spot.
• There are therefore no limits to these processes. This automatically gives you the opportunity to analyse the data from the perspective of Business Intelligence use.
