Turning Transformation into Tax Advantage with Vertex
Oracle customers migrating to Oracle Cloud ERP and OCI often hit tax and compliance roadblocks—from planning, lift-and-shift to OCI (e.g., Oracle E-Business Suite), modernization, to post-go-live optimization. Watch ERP Today's "Turning Transformation into Tax Advantage with Vertex" webinar, where Marc Duclos and experts tackle the “tax moment” in migrations: where risks emerge in design, data, testing, or go-live; when tax should shape processes, data models, integrations, and controls; and day-one success criteria like accuracy, auditability, visibility, speed. Learn to align tax automation with your roadmap by scoping countries, tax types, volume, controls, reporting, and mandates—so tax isn’t a blocker or afterthought. Get Vertex integration best practices for lift-and-shift vs. ERP modernization (connectivity, data mapping, error handling), avoid gotchas like timing and testing, and explore post-migration priorities: e-invoicing mandates, analytics (margin impact, audit heatmaps), AI anomaly detection (duplicates, exemptions), plus live Q&A on data issues and future-proofing. Watch now to learn how to: - Pinpoint tax risks across migration phases and influence decisions early (process, data, integrations, controls). - Define day-one cloud tax success (accuracy, auditability, visibility, speed) and beat blockers like data quality, governance. - Integrate Vertex without IT burden in lift-and-shift to OCI or Cloud ERP modernization. - Validate tax confidence (edge cases, audit trails) and monitor for continuous compliance. - Prep for e-invoicing, AI detection, scenario modeling, and tax analytics dashboards.
