The TEAMS Express family of ECM software products provides a cost-effective and vendor neutral platform for integrating sales tax and use tax exemption certificate management with any tax calculation engine or financial system. Cleveland, Ohio, October 7, 2008 - Businesses are losing customers, time and money by incorrectly charging sales tax. Validating sales or use tax-exempt status at the time of purchase can be difficult without easy access to current, complete and correct sales tax exemption certificates for the tax jurisdiction in question. Tax calculation engines and other financial systems just can't manage
all of the different forms and jurisdictions without help. In the past, integrating <a
href="http://www.issimage.com/teams%20express%20on%20demand.html">exemption certificate management</a> (ECM) systems has been difficult and expensive because every integration had to be significantly customized for each system and customer. The <a href="http://www.issimage.com/teams%20express%20on%20demand.html">TEAMS Express</a> family of ECM software products provides a cost-effective and vendor neutral platform for integrating exemption certificate management with any tax calculation engine or financial system.
TEAMS Express is built with Microsoft .Net technology and Web Services. This architecture provides an economical platform and tax engine independence that supports systems integrations of any sort.
