TEC150, is proud to announce the launch of our first Celonis App, GST Compliance Monitor
Until today, tax requirements have been manually monitored, resulting in limited visibility and leading to frequent non-compliances as well as potential large fines for companies.
The TEC150 GST Compliance Monitor helps clients to improve overall regulatory compliance and enable reporting timeliness via
Early detection of issues and identify root causes
Proactive process intervention and clear path for escalation
Providing a transparent and proactive monitoring of potential violations.
The Background
In the course of the Celonis Projects we have executed, we have had many great suggestions from clients to expand the capability. One of these was around GST.
SAP provides a standard mechanism for calculating the amount of GST, which is great. However clients are still struggling to comply with GST requirements due to the following pain points and challenges;
Difficulty in identifying non-compliance or potential breach of tax claims e.g. under- or over-claiming invalid tax credits
No end to end visibility of the process as data can be stored in different systems
Intensive manual work leading to human errors and inefficiency in the process, and therefore late regulatory filings
GST Entity Validation data is not available in the ERP but rather is accessible in the government portal
The TEC150 approach integrates both SAP GST data and ATO registration data, and has the following advantages over traditional approaches;
Eliminates the need to create developments within SAP which is costly and time-consuming (create new reports and logic checks)
Provides control checks that cannot be performed in SAP for GST compliance
Provides Controls and checks conducted from a business process (i.e. process mining) perspective, not from a code development perspective (within SAP)
Provides the ability to assess all the (tax) impacted processes in a single app
