OECD Tax eAudit While SAF-T could be represented using different file formats, it should be created in a data format that meets the needs of the auditor, preferably one that is widely used around the globe. Revenue authorities acknowledge that standard formats facilitate audit automation processes. Annex 4 shows a representation of SAF-T in XML. The use of XML format also provides an opportunity for a path towards adoption of XBRL-GL.[1] It is entirely a matter for revenue authorities to develop their policies for implementation of SAF-T. However, revenue authorities should be aware of the on-going development of XBRL GL, which could offer a more holistic approach to audit. They should also be aware of international efforts to develop data standards for compliance needs under the formal OASIS Tax XML Committee.[2] In their implementation strategy for SAF-T, revenue authorities should consider data formats that permit audit automation today while minimizing potential costs to all stakeholders when moving to new global open standards for business and financial data such as XBRL GL. 21/09/2018 13th XBRL International Conference
