Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The primary problem solved is e-invoicing in Mexico and India. Secondary use case is to support VAT/GST compliance - although primarily to extract data, full return prep is managed by an outsourcer.

Pros

  • Integration with SAP - one solution/click thru.
  • Breadth of solution.
  • Reporting capabilities.

Cons

  • Better documentation of edge cases.
  • less reliance on third parties for e-invoicing final mile (MX and India for example).
  • Greater support - akin to Pagero, Edicom, etc., for final mile tax authority connectivity.

Return on Investment

  • Positive impact is the centralization of e-invoicing on a single platform (previously split across multiple vendors/providers).
  • Reporting standardization and simplification for internal users.
  • Enhancing Mexico's fringe cases has been complex due to limited documentation, which has limited the ability to meet these needs in a timely manner.

  • Fairly straightforward to configure.
