The drive to be agile

Both business and tax environments are going through extraordinary levels of change. From the digital economy to digital tax administrations, the impacts on tax functions are seen in increased requirements on reporting, transparency, business partnering and talent. The quantum and pace of change requires tax functions to be more agile - with technologies such as S/4 HANA a key and central component of their strategic response.

A transformative opportunity

S/4HANA provides new and unique opportunities to address the demands on tax that haven’t existed before. By optimising core SAP, by leveraging related ecosystem SAP applications for tax (such as SAP Profitability and Performance Management; SAP Global Trade Services; SAP Tax Compliance; Advance Compliance and Reporting; Tax Services and Document Compliance to name but a few) and by using EY leading expertise, the agile tax function needed yesterday can be realised today and continue to evolve tomorrow.
