Download - A Closer Look At Vat
Why not take a clos er look at VAT and get the most from your ERP system?
Indirect taxes, and VAT in particular, play a key role in all business processes. Whether companies are implementing or upgrading an ERP system, or modifying their business model, ensuring that all VATrelated aspects of the ERP system are in order will have substantial benefits across the organisation.
You may incur significant fines and/or miss out on tax benefits if the system’s VAT functions are not in compliance with the law, report taxes incorrectly, do not capture changes in your business model, are inefficient from a risk management or administrative perspective, or are not used properly to enhance the effectiveness of your tax function.
PricewaterhouseCoopers helps make sure your ERP system is configured so it works for, not against, your business. The comprehensive support we offer when you implement a new system, or review an existing one, ensures you have the right VAT functionality in place and the knowhow to make the most of it.
