ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sovos, the always-on tax compliance company, announced the availability of its Indirect Tax Suite for SAP, the first of its kind, an end-to-end solution for indirect tax determination, e-invoicing, filing, and reporting. The indirect tax solutions work with any kind of SAP environment – ECC and S/4HANA (on-premise, private/public cloud). The Indirect Tax Suite is also fully aligned with SAP’s clean core strategy, ensuring businesses can maintain complete and continuous compliance across all tax and regulatory processes without compromising the integrity of their ERP systems. This approach reduces the complexity of tax compliance in their SAP environment, while supporting long-term system stability and scalability. It also helps businesses prepare and meet deadlines for future SAP upgrades — preventing tax challenges from hindering their implementations.
Additionally, as businesses across the globe transition to SAP S/4HANA, the demand for compliance solutions that integrate seamlessly with SAP’s Clean Core principles has never been greater. Sovos is uniquely positioned to meet this challenge, offering the most comprehensive and future-proof Indirect Tax Suite for SAP on the global market.
“With our deep expertise in tax compliance and decades-long partnership with SAP, Sovos has developed a platform unlike anything that exists in the market today. Our Indirect Tax Suite for SAP not only meets today's compliance needs, but is also fully prepared for the future of continuous transaction controls and e-invoicing,” said Steve Sprague, Chief Product & Strategy Officer at Sovos. “Also, our alignment with SAP’s Clean Core strategy means businesses can confidently transition to S/4HANA, knowing their tax compliance processes are secure, scalable, and future-ready.”
Unmatched Global Coverage and Indirect Tax Expertise
Sovos is the first ever and only provider offering a full suite of indirect tax solutions for SAP customers that cover everything from tax determination (for VAT, SUT, GST across the globe) to e-invoicing for meeting the requirements of continuous transaction controls (CTCs). Unlike other vendors who focus solely on tax determination, Sovos provides end-to-end tax compliance solutions tailored to meet the needs of multinational corporations operating in complex regulatory environments.
Covering countries and tax jurisdictions in North America, Latin America, EMEA and APAC, Sovos’ platform ensures compliance with local tax regulations, offering complete visibility into tax obligations and real-time monitoring across jurisdictions. As the market leader in indirect tax solutions, Sovos processes over 16 billion transactions annually, providing businesses with the confidence they need to scale and thrive in an ever-evolving tax landscape.
Preparing for the Future with Clean Core Certification
As SAP transitions from ECC to S/4HANA, the importance of keeping the core ERP free from custom modifications is paramount. By adopting clean core principles, businesses can lower their total cost of ownership, reduce technical debt, and simplify future upgrades. Sovos' solutions are designed to operate within this framework, offering a seamless integration with SAP’s core while utilizing cloud-based extensions to deliver unmatched flexibility.
“By 2025, Sovos plans to make significant progress in terms of its clean core readiness to ensure a seamless transition for its customers keeping them fully compliant with SAP’s best practices and equipped to handle the complexities of global tax compliance,” added Sprague. “We believe that tax compliance should be a catalyst for growth, not a burden, and our platform is designed to make that a reality.”
