Tax authorities may have rules governing whether an appeal can be accepted for processing. An appeal may be initially assessed to see whether it complies with these rules to determine if it should be rejected without commencing the review or evaluation process. The C1-Appeal business object includes a validation state to support this.
It is common for tax authorities to impose time limits on lodging an appeal. The base algorithm C1-AP-CHKATL provides an example of logic that validates an appeal's timeliness via a call to an Oracle Policy Automation rule. Refer to Configuring the Appeal Timeliness Rule for more details.
If issues are reported during validation, the C1-Appeal business object will transition to the Issues Detected state. The base algorithm C1-AP-CRTODO may be configured on the Issues Detected state to send a notification that the appeal is invalid. If the appeal passes validation, the business object enters the Ready For Review state.
The C1-Appeal business object allows an appeal to be manually transitioned to the Ready For Review state from the Issues Detected state if a user wishes to override the validation rules. Your implementation may choose to restrict this action to specific user groups using standard application service security configuration.
