DIY or Done-for-You? Rethinking Tax Compliance Strategy in SAPHow Tax Compliance Is Changing in SAP
Tax compliance in SAP is no longer just an IT decision. It’s a strategic risk decision.
As governments shift to real-time, transaction-level enforcement, SAP customers are being forced to rethink how tax compliance fits into their S/4HANA, Clean Core, and data governance strategies.
Many organizations are evaluating ERP-native approaches, while others are expanding their capabilities to account for authority-led, end-to-end compliance models designed to keep pace with continuous mandates. Each path comes with tradeoffs in cost, risk, scalability, and long-term agility.
In this session, Sovos tax and SAP experts explore how SAP customers should think about this decision, not from a product perspective, but from an enterprise architecture, risk, and operating model standpoint.
You’ll learn:
