- The Happy Path framework helps map and diagnose breakdowns in indirect tax operations, highlighting where automation can have the greatest impact.
- It visualizes the entire indirect tax lifecycle, from transaction to government reporting, identifying specific pain points and their business consequences.
- The framework consists of six stages: Tax ID validation, Tax determination, Local invoicing compliance, E-invoicing and real-time reporting, Tax returns and reporting, and (implied) further downstream processes.
- Using the Happy Path enables tax teams to assess each stage, prioritize improvements, and build a concrete case for automation to leadership.
