VAT and SAP Summit: 25-27 November, London

Sovos
August 17, 2015

This summit will be held at the Kensington Close Hotel from 25th – 27th November. If you are involved in the indirect tax compliance process in SAP, we would like to extend to you an exclusive Invitation to join us at the conference at a 25% discounted rate. Some of the key learnings that you might benefit from:

  • As VAT departments do not usually have ownership of the data sources, how can you help ensure data is accurate and complete? This event will address how you can incorporate both structured and unstructured data into your system so you have improved visibility for your reporting and audits. Sovos Compliance is offering a specific learning lab on this topic “The Importance of Data Extraction in SAP for VAT Process Optimisation” on the 25th of November, which you can sign up for separately. This session will outline automation capabilities to reduce your information gathering process by up to 80% for a more efficient VAT process.
  • Mapping out complex VAT flows, including triangulation, and indirect exports. Gain insight into mastering the art of Intrastat reporting.
  • Establishing your VAT requirements to ensure effective reporting and compliance. With so many moving pieces, it can be difficult to communicate your requirements to IT, Finance, Procurement and the wider business. However unless you take the time to make your case to the key stakeholders, you will continue to fire-fight instead of driving continuous improvement. Learn how to establish and communicate your requirements to optimise the process.
  • Organisational design for process excellence. What operational models can best help VAT align with the business and be as effective and efficient as possible? This event will look at Centres of Excellence for VAT, VAT in Shared Services and offshoring the transactional elements of VAT.

To learn more about the event, please access the conference website.

If you would like to attend this conference, you can reach out to the Shared Services Link team at +44 (0)207 377 1907 and mention SOVOS2015 for your 25% discount.
