1. Key Challenges1. Data quality issues can
affect tax results in Direct Rate Method
2. Tax Codes migrate unde the Regime to Rate structure can be hard to reconcile
3. PL/SQL tax calculation extensions not supported
4. Tax Groups may not upgrade
5. Operating Unit based tax calculations is limited
2. Transition to Regime Determination is a risk
1. Multiple Tax engines 1. Some 3rd Party tax engines
also have to be upgraded to newer versions
2. Latin tax Engine, China Golden tax still need to be supported
2. Data Quality1. Customer and Supplier tax
information to drives defaulting
2. All Tax is Location Based in R12 and relies on a more structur
3. Education – users need to be educated on how the tax engine works and the often new tax naming convention
