Purpose
The Sending Service is our solution for the automatic transmission of reports and documents to authorities.
It is an application consisting of a set of processes (called listeners) that periodically exchange files with authorities through a set of designated folders. Everything is configured via an administration interface.
This solution is useful if you have a large number of reports to submit or if the manual sending does not suit your needs.
Please be aware that, in this case you will have to provide the files yourself according to the authorities' file specifications.
This tool is compatible with most of the current operating systems (Windows / Unix / Linux) and is usually installed on a server on your side.
With a suitable network mapping, users can simply drop the file to be sent into the appropriate directory. It is then automatically encrypted and sent.
Prerequisites
- Internet access
- If you use a proxy, authorize outgoing calls to www.e-file.lu. Port 443 (HTTPS) must be open.
- Administrator rights to install the Sending Service on the computer (Windows Start button > Control Panel > User Accounts > Manage User Accounts).
*OS: Windows or Linux
- Processor: Pentium 2 GHz or equivalent
- 8 GB of RAM
- 1 GB of free space on hard disk drive if the files are downloaded by ftp. If files are locally stored, provide a free space of above 100 MB or a regular purges.
- 1 GB of free space on hard disk drive for logs. Regular purges are necessary as well.
- A Sending Service user , for example: aacSD, and its password, for example: formation, have to be available => e-file administrator.
- The e-file account of the Sending Service user has to be linked to groups/modules, for example FATCA reporting + profile "Sending Service".
- A valid keystore (keystore.ks) and its password must be available
- The Sending Service user has to be properly configured in the e-file user administration tool in order to be able to receive alerts (receipt of acknowledgement and feedback files).
