Global tax software leader Sovos announced today that its Tax Determination for US Sales and Use Tax .0.0.1 solution has achieved SAP certification as integrated with SAP S/4HANA® Cloud, as part of the “Co-Innovated with SAP” program. Sovos Global Tax Determination helps customers determine automated, accurate rates for every transaction and in every jurisdiction. By combining value-added tax, goods and services tax, excise tax, and sales and use tax determination support in a single solution, Sovos helps safeguard businesses from error-triggered audits as determination rules change.
Governments around the world are embracing digital transformation to enforce the collection of transactional taxes, putting pressure on companies to get tax right the first time. By putting tax compliance software in the digital financial technology core, Sovos helps businesses that use SAP solutions keep their own digital transformation initiatives moving with a solution built for modern tax compliance.
The “Co-Innovated with SAP” program is designed to help partners through the development lifecycle that culminates in an SAP-certified and tested solution against SAP product standards. It is an end-to-end program of guided services offered by the Partner Innovation Lifecycle Services organization that helps partners take their products to market in close alignment with other SAP teams (product management, solution management, development and field), thereby providing the guidance and support to help ensure a competitive solution in the marketplace. Additionally, the SAP Partner Innovation Lifecycle Services organization has certified that Sovos Global Tax Determination .0.0.1 solution integrates with SAP S/4HANA Cloud using standard integration technologies.
