The BEST way to handle tax compliance

A CASE STUDY

The Company:
A supplier of fabricated steel equipment to large food service firms such as Starbucks, Subway, and Walmart.

The Challenge:
This supplier needed to find a better way to handle tax compliance. The supplier’s legacy tax software was incompatible with their ERP. This led to:

  • The required upgrade to the latest Infor ERP version without having a pre-built, certified, fully-functional connector
  • The reliance upon labor-intensive, error-prone manual processes
  • Inaccurate customer addresses
  • Uncertainty around product and service taxability, as well as nexus
  • Increased audit risk


The Solution:
Avalara offerings were a perfect match to solve all of their challenges.

  • Proven integration – Crossroads RMC’s certified connectors to Avalara are top-notch and time-proven
  • Improved employee utilization – Accounting staff can now focus on more valuable, revenue-generating activities
  • AvaTax reports changes in tax rules and nexus obligations, eliminating the need for manual monitoring
  • Avalara Consumer Use facilitates the time-consuming burden of use tax reporting
  • Avalara’s Managed Returns automates returns filing and payments

  • Reduced audit risk – With Avalara in use, auditors can focus on firms who don’t have a compliance plan in place
  • AvaTax delivers guaranteed-accurate address validation and tax rates
  • Returns ensures that all liabilities get paid on time, down to local jurisdictions
  • CertCapture safeguards against missing, out-of-date and inaccurate exemption certs

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

If it is necessary to pause sending and receiving of BOD messages on your IBM i during your month end process, it is best practice for the document flows that point to the IBM i to guarantee delivery of BOD messages. Once the month end process has been completed, you will need to Resume the ‘Receiving’ and ‘Sending’ Active Connection Points so your documents will continue to process.

Pausing Sending messages

To pause sending messages to ION:

  1. Select Connect > Active Connection Points.
  2. Select the connection point that must be paused for sending messages.
  3. In the Sending Paused column, click Pause. The page is automatically refreshed and the Sending Paused checkbox is selected. A Resume button becomes available. 

Sending of messages by this connection point is stopped....

The database in LX 8.4 has undergone a significant change from previous versions. The database has been created using SQL DDL language instead of the old DDS language. The newer format allows for LX to take better advantage of advances in IBM database technologies as they move forward. Additionally, LX will be better able to make changes to tables (aka files) in the future without causing very large MR explosions to replace all programs that use a specific table. To ease the impact of this significant change, the LX tables (aka physical files) have new names that are the same as the previous version file names but with a “P” at the end, for example IIM is now IIMP. The old file names now belong to SQL views that looks just like the tables. This change made it easier to upgrade all the LX programs without changing every reference to every file. Many of the logical files remain although some have been replaced by SQL indexes to improve performance.
