Why now

The custom tax logic in your ERP has an eviction notice.

1

The mandate

RISE with SAP and the clean-core principle are clear: custom code leaves the ERP. The tax logic your teams built into user exits, pricing routines, and Z-tables over two decades doesn't survive the move.

2

The gap

Native S/4HANA tax determination was never designed for the hard cases — commodity-dependent rates, customer-specific treatments, cross-border services, special regimes. That's why the custom code existed.

3

The new home

SETA AI moves that intelligence to SAP BTP: a deterministic engine with transparent, human-approved content — connected to S/4HANA through SAP-delivered integration, with zero modifications in your core.

How it connects

Integration is configuration, not a project.

Your S/4HANA already speaks our language: SETA connects through SAP's own delivered framework for external tax calculation — the mechanism SAP built for exactly this purpose.

1

Connect

A standard communication arrangement and a secure destination — set up in your S/4HANA configuration, not in code. Zero modifications, nothing installed in your core.

2

Call

Every determination is an HTTPS call secured with OAuth 2.0 and TLS encryption, answered in milliseconds. Pricing, billing, and accounting run exactly as standard.

3

Adopt at your pace

Route determination to SETA per country or company code while everything else runs unchanged. Coexistence, not a big-bang migration.

No middleware. No adapter layers. No integration project on your roadmap.
What SETA AI does

One engine. Three disciplines.

The outcome for your tax organization: accurate tax on every transaction, a fraction of the manual effort, and audit readiness by default — which is what actually lowers tax compliance risk.

Determines

One generic output code and one input code in SAP carry every treatment — standard, reduced, exempt, reverse charge. The engine returns the rate, the posting logic, the treatment identity, and the legal phrase for the invoice. No tax-code proliferation. No condition-record archaeology.

Drafts

The AI content factory classifies your products into the correct tax category and drafts entire country catalogs in minutes — every proposal grounded in cited legal sources, replacing weeks of manual research. And it learns from every correction your tax team makes, compounding country after country.

Governs

Every determination logged with its full reasoning trace. Change documents on every content table. Referential integrity guards. Validity-dated rates, so a rate change is content loaded in advance — not a transport project. When the auditor asks "why this treatment?", the answer is on record — not in a developer's head.

Proof

Not a concept. A working system.

On a standard SAP S/4HANA 2025 system, SETA AI today determines and posts the scenarios tax teams know as the hard ones: commodity-driven rates — different products, one generic tax code, each taxed at the standard or reduced rate because the engine classified its commodity code into the correct tax category; customer-specific treatments such as VAT groups; intra-EU supplies and cross-border B2B services carrying the correct foreign VAT registration on the invoice; drop-ship scenarios; and reverse-charge purchases. All through one pair of generic tax codes, with zero customization in SAP — the full flexibility of your old custom logic, with none of the custom code, and the reasoning behind every decision on record.
AI-proposed content with legal citations and confidence — nothing goes live without human approval.
