Improving Tax Filing Workflows with BSI

SAP organizations are often saddled with manual and outdated workflows. In addition to draining time away from finance and accounting teams, these processes introduce a higher risk for errors and potential audit issues down the line.

All too often, companies rely on these manual workflows to keep pace with changing tax regulations. These changes can make it difficult for companies to understand their tax burdens and plan for the future as well as jeopardizing their compliance initiatives.

Not only do these changes in payroll tax rules change often, but they also grow more complex. SAPinsider research has shown that growing complexity in compliance management, governance, and regulations is the top concern affecting the way that organizations handle their tax management strategies.

Meeting the Market

Recently, Business Software, Inc. (BSI) hosted its Payroll Tax & Regulatory Horizon webinar, highlighting state and local changes to tax requirements for the fourth quarter of 2024. BSI’s Steve Denison highlighted some of the many forthcoming regulatory and legislative updates and changes that companies must contend with.

Companies must understand how evolving regulatory and legislative dynamics can affect them and determine solutions to address those challenges. Leading companies take the time to understand these obstacles and how best to address them.

What This Means for SAPinsiders

With tax regulation changes growing more frequent and more complex, SAP organizations are beginning to realize that they cannot continue to track these updates manually. This runs the risk of missing an important change that can lead to significant penalties and financial complications into the future.

Many SAP organizations are turning to partners like BSI to help them automatically ensure that their payroll tax calculations are accurate. BSI offers its TaxFactory tool, which comes with the unique Tax Locator feature. This allows users to automatically locate employees and ensure that their payroll system is up to date with all applicable regulations. This removes significant burdens from the payroll process and ensures accurate calculations.

As many organizations struggle to accommodate the rise of remote work, streamlining and automating payroll processes is more important than ever. Companies must find solutions that allow them to accurately calculate their payroll and tax burdens, file taxes, and remain compliant with all applicable regulations.
