The Tax Engine – Vertex O Series

Why Vertex O Series?§ Ensuring upstream coding quality and consistency§ Moving away from: Manual Processes– ERPs/Finance Systems/eComm platforms embedded with little or no tax content– Tax rate (and TaxCode) need to be set-up and maintained– Selection of TaxCodes in ERPs Risk of error, lack of consistency; turnover of staff; training/manuals/flow-charts, etc.Shared Service Centres/outsourcing of AP functions Lack of local knowledgePaid to process AP invoices§ External Pressures Greater scrutiny [internal and external]– SOX, SAO, horizontal monitoring, co-operative compliance– Process, process, process– Visibility and opennessFollow us at #VertexExchange27
