Create a Hash Signature for Value Added Tax Audit SOAP Message for Angola

See more OpenSSL Examples

Demonstrates how to create a hash signature that is required in Value Added Tax Audit Files in Angola, Africa.

It is the following two instructions that should be used to create a hash value to be put into a <hash></hash> field in SOAP XML file containing the tax data for the VAT authorities:

openssl dgst -shal -sign private.pem -outRegisto1.shal Registo1.txt

then

openssl enc -base64 - in Registo1.shal -out Registo1.b64 -A
