Automated Tax Registration Number Validation for Suppliers

Validate supplier tax registration numbers automatically against government agencies during the tax registration number creation process. Many tax authorities, government portals, and electronic invoicing service providers offer application programming interfaces to validate third-party registration numbers which are used to determine tax recoverability and report taxes.

Use the Tax Registration page to enter the tax registration number details. When you click Save, the tax registration is validated. The Tax Authority Validation Response section of the Tax Registration page displays the tax authority validation response.

The business benefit is to ensure supplier details are accurate and valid for payments, input tax recoverability, and tax reporting.

Steps to Enable

Create and enable a new lookup code ZX_37654331 for the existing ORA_ERP_CONTROLLED_CONFIG lookup type using the Manage Standard Lookups FSM task.
