Correct payment and collection of sales and use taxes, especially for an organization that spans multiple states and taxing jurisdictions, can be a significant challenge for any business.

Complicating factors include the ever-increasing taxation of non-traditional items such as services, software and maintenance agreements to the proper tax calculations, credits or exemptions to claim on traditional items such as machinery, equipment and supplies. Other challenges facing tax planners include statutory tax refund provisions in lieu of up-front exemptions or the proper calculation of tax offsets to apply against sales or use tax audit assessments.
