Import Electronic reporting (ER) configurations from Regulatory Configuration Services (RCS)

Important

Regulatory Configuration Service (RCS) will be deprecated. All new RCS provisioning is stopped as of 10.0.39 GA. If provisioning is required, please register a support ticket. We will be providing tools and required support for migration from RCS to the Globalization Studio workspace. We plan to fully shut down RCS by August 1, 2024. For more information about migration to Globalization Studio workspace, see Regulatory Configuration Service merge to the Globalization Studio workspace

You can use Regulatory Configuration Services (RCS) to design Electronic reporting (ER) configurations. The ER tool provides access to the list of configurations that have been configured in each instance of RCS that has been provisioned for your company. You can use this feature to import configurations that you configured in an RCS instance into the current instance. After configurations are imported, they can be used to handle incoming documents or generate outgoing electronic documents.

To learn more about this feature, complete the example in this article. Alternatively, download and play the ER Import configurations from RCS task guide, which is part of the 7.5.4.3 Acquire/Develop IT service/solution components (10677) business process. It walks you through the process of importing ER configurations from an RCS instance into the current instance.

Example: Import an ER configuration from RCS

This example shows how a user in the System Administrator or Electronic Reporting Developer role can import a new version of an ER configuration from RCS. In this example, you select the desired version of the ER configuration that has been configured in an RCS instance, and you import that version into the current instance for a sample company that is named Litware, Inc. These steps can be completed in any company, because ER configurations are shared among companies.

To complete the steps in this example, you must first complete the steps in Create configuration providers and mark them as active. You must also have access to an RCS instance that contains at least one ER configuration that has a status of either Completed or Shared.

  1. Go to Organization administration > Workspaces > Electronic reporting.
  2. On the Localization configurations page, in the Configuration providers section, make sure that the configuration provider for the Litware, Inc. sample company is listed, and that it's marked as Active. If you don't see this configuration provider, follow the steps in Create configuration providers and mark them as active.
  3. If no RCS environment has been provisioned for your company, in the External Links section, select Regulatory services – Configuration. Then follow the instructions to provision an RCS environment.
  4. In the Related links section, select Electronic reporting parameters.
  5. On the Electronic reporting parameters page, select the RCS tab.
  6. Use the URLs on this tab to access the RCS environment has been provisioned for your company.
  7. Close the Electronic reporting parameters page.

  1. On the Localization configurations page, select the Litware, Inc. configuration provider in the list.
  2. Select Repositories.

  4. Select RCS as the configuration repository type, and then select Create repository.
  5. In the RCS environment display name field, select the desired RCS instance. Note that you can have several instances.
  6. Select OK.
