Thomson Reuters and SAP Partner for Automating Tax Reporting

Thomson Reuters, a global content and technology company, has expanded its partnership with SAP as it integrates ONESOURCE Sales & Use Tax Compliance with SAP Document and Reporting Compliance for SAP S/4HANA. The new integration supports businesses using SAP technologies with automating and filing sales and use tax returns in the United States directly from SAP Document and Reporting Compliance via a unified user experience, helping to streamline processes, save time, and support accuracy in tax reporting to minimize risk.

This follows earlier solutions integrations, including three Thomson Reuters ONESOURCE solutions certified as SAP Endorsed Apps: ONESOURCE Determination for SAP S/4HANA and SAP ERP (US/CA), ONESOURCE Determination (US) for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition, and ONESOURCE Tax Provision for SAP S/4HANA Cloud.

Ray Grove, Head of Corporate Tax and Trade at Thomson Reuters said: “By deepening our ONESOURCE integrations with SAP S/4HANA, we are delivering superior tax compliance solutions directly to customers where they are working – within their ERP system. For businesses using SAP technologies, we are bringing them the ability to utilize ONESOURCE Sales & Use Tax Compliance to file domestic statutory reports. This automates the preparation process, can free up their time, and helps ensure confident compliance with the latest U.S. regulations. Our work with SAP underscores our commitment to equipping customers with best-in-class tax compliance technology through our long-standing partnership.”

Elvira Wallis, SVP and Global Head of SAP Globalization added: “Continued collaboration between SAP and Thomson Reuters helps us to address the complex tax compliance needs of our customers operating in the United States. By providing companies with the ability to prepare tax returns in SAP Document and Reporting Compliance, powered by ONESOURCE Sales & Use Tax Compliance, SAP customers can benefit from a harmonized user experience, a more efficient return preparation process, and enhanced data transparency. This can make it easier to trace transactions back to the source within SAP S/4HANA, ultimately helping to solve key business compliance challenges.”
