SAP Direct Tax Management
What is SAP Direct Tax Management?
SAP Direct Tax Management is an AI-enabled application based on SAP Profitability and Performance Management Cloud. It helps you manage direct tax processes in one connected workflow.
Save time with unified direct tax management.
Harmonize tax data with a shared tax facts table that supports consistent inputs, results, and downstream calculations.
Connect tax workflows across operational transfer pricing, IFRS tax accounting, and BEPS Pillar 2.0.
Automate calculations and reporting for transfer pricing, IFRS tax accounting, ETR analysis, safe harbor, and top-up tax.
Use natural language to ask questions, run calculations, trigger workflows, and generate reports.
