Electronic tax audits/eAudit readiness

Digital workflows for the tax audit

The electronic tax audit (euBP) has long been more than just a digital cost driver for companies: It is a legal obligation in accordance with GoBD and a central element of a modern tax and compliance strategy. By using specialised software and data-supported workflows, audit requests can be efficiently tracked, data can be provided transparently and risks can be identified at an early stage. Companies benefit from greater speed, improved data security and robust dashboards for all stakeholders.
