September 29 – September 30 | Washington, D.C.
Hosted by the National Association of State Bar Tax Sections
MEETING SESSION
Sales Tax Automation for Lawyers
Friday, September 29, 8:30 pm – 9:30 pm
After all the planning is done, the right tax must be collected and the numbers must end up on a sales tax form. This panel will explore the mysterious world of sales tax software automation from the perspective most beneficial to attorneys/advisors who typically don’t get involved in the automation process. The panelists will cover the broader scope of the sales tax compliance ecosystem, and the specific challenges involved in implementing a sales tax engine, including actual system configuration such as nexus, tax code selection, entity setup, and exemption certificate upload. The panelists will also discuss best practices managing a tool that many, mistakenly, retreat as a set-it-and-forget-it system.
Alexander Korzhen, TaxOps and Chair of NASBTS, will moderate this session with panelists Christine Pope, CEO at TaxValet.
MEETING SESSION
Tax Section Boot Camp
Friday, September 29, 3:30 pm – 5:00 pm
