The SabrixConnection for Oracle seamlessly connects the Sabrix Application Suite
to Oracle E-Business Suite applications, providing a complete, consolidated
transaction tax management solution for Oracle customers that require the
determination, calculation, and reporting of U.S. sales and use tax and international
value-added tax.
Sabrix Inc. Overview
Sabrix is the leading provider of consolidated transaction tax management software and
services, enabling tax and IT professionals to manage sales, use, and value-added tax with
consistent accuracy, control, and efficiency. Sabrixs transaction service-oriented architecture
provides a consistent way to determine, calculate, and record any transaction-related tax to
manage compliance and optimize cash flows for a single application or on a global scale.
Founded in 2000, Sabrix is based in California, with additional operations in North America
and Europe.
Integration Overview
Corporations using Oracle Receivables 11i and Oracle Order Management 11i can integrate
with the Sabrix solution to benefit from fast and accurate sales, use, and value-added tax results
along with a complete audit and compliance database from which both standard and custom
reports as well as returns can be generated.

The Sabrix solution requires no manual tax decisions during transaction processing.
The Sabrix solutions automatic tax determination capabilities deliver a level of tax
accuracy unsurpassed in the industry.
Sabrixs automatic tax determination provides corporate tax departments with the
means to significantly improve transaction tax accuracy and reduce compliance costs
by:
o Eliminating tax decisions by sales and accounting personnel. No manual
jurisdiction code or tax code assignments are required during transaction
processing. This ensures both tax accuracy and appropriate accounting/GL
posting.
o Eliminating the overhead costs of maintaining address jurisdiction codes
within the Oracle applications. No periodic updates are required to keep
jurisdiction codes synchronized with the shifting jurisdiction definitions
provided by tax authorities.

Integration Details
Through the Oracle PartnerNetwork
Applications Integration Initiative, partners
with validated integrations are able to
provide customers with standards-based,
vanilla product integrations, tested and
validated by Oracle. Customers benefit
from improved risk management and
smoother upgrade capability, leading to a
lower total cost of ownership and greater
overall satisfaction.

The SabrixConnection for Oracle Sales integrates with the tax interface that is available in
Oracle Order Management and Oracle Receivables. When these modules encounter a business
process that requires a call to an external tax engine, the SabrixConnection is called and initiates
the communication through a simple HTTP call to the Sabrix connection server Java component
running on the application server. The connection server retrieves the required data via Java
Database Connectivity and then constructs and passes the XML transaction to the Sabrix tax

engine, which determines and calculates tax, and returns the transaction tax result. The
connection server then restructures the resulting XML data back to PL/SQL and passes
control back to the SabrixConnection, which delivers the result to Oracle E-Business Suite.
The SabrixConnection for Oracle Purchasing integrates with Oracle E-Business Suite by
calling the Sabrix connection server Java component running on the application server. The
connection server retrieves the required data via Java Database Connectivity and then
constructs and passes the XML transaction to the Sabrix tax engine, which determines and
calculates tax, and returns the transaction tax result. It uses the same connection server
process to send and receive information to and from the Sabrix tax engine.
