Run audit pbc list management on autopilot inside Sovos.

Sovos Sales Tax Analyst Indirect Tax

The Problem

Audit season means a 200-line PBC list, endless auditor follow-ups, and the controller acting as a courier between Indirect Tax operators and the audit team.

What We Build in Sovos

AI manages the PBC list, pulls each requested schedule from Avalara, answers auditor follow-ups from the workpapers, and logs every deliverable — audit fees drop and the controller gets their week back. Purpose-built for teams running Sovos — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

Sovos Integration Approach

Audit your Sovos configuration

2

Build on the Sovos API or agent

Integration happens inside Sovos — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.

3

Human-in-the-loop handoff

Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Sovos with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
