"NetSuite OneWorld's expanded worldwide tax and compliance capabilities are a direct response to the needs of our fast growing global customer base," said Craig Sullivan, Vice President and General Manager, International for NetSuite. "NetSuite OneWorld makes previously complex, error-prone and time-consuming compliance activities simple, reducing the burden on businesses when performing real-time, localized tax calculation and mandatory periodic tax reporting wherever in the world your business may be."

Companies already enjoying success with NetSuite OneWorld's expanded international support include:

• Lomographische AG (www.lomography.com), an Austrian camera manufacturer which supports creative and experimental analogue film photography. Lomographische uses NetSuite OneWorld to support its offices in Europe and Asia, benefiting from NetSuite's recent international taxation and regulatory support in its home country and key offices. "NetSuite provides our subsidiary operations with the flexibility and autonomy they require to run as part of a global company," said Igor Sarkanovic, ERP Manager at Lomographische. "The availability of the tax reports in both English as well as the native language promotes internal user adoption, as well as providing the information in a format ready for global consumption."
• VADition (www.vadition.com), a value adding distributor of Web 2.0 infrastructure technologies designed to help more companies succeed as social enterprises. Based in Hampshire, UK with offices throughout the EMEA region, NetSuite's new support for the Netherlands has delivered instant benefits. "The new International Tax report facilities in NetSuite saves us about three hours work per month. It has eliminated manual processes combining different and several other reports," said Jacqueline Smits, Operations Manager of VADition Benelux BV. "The new report is generated with a few clicks and looks exactly like the Dutch filing report that is required by the tax agency."
• Perficio Consulting Ltd (www.perficioconsulting.com), is a NetSuite solution provider based in the Czech Republic. "The new NetSuite tax reporting functionality for the Czech Republic speeds up the implementation time and effort and makes the business day considerably easier for our clients, leading to huge time savings and improved productivity across the team.

"We are excited about the localized tax reporting features that NetSuite now brings to the Philippines. It is an absolute time saver for us and for our clients," said Martin Evangelista, CloudTech's Managing Director. "In other solutions we have implemented before, we had to prepare these types of reports manually from outside the financial system, or customers would have to pay expensive customization fees to get this kind of localized functionality. With NetSuite, these tax reports are now easy to generate—and it's nice they already follow the format expected by the Philippine Bureau of Internal Revenue."
• SQL*Wizard (http://www.sqlwizard.com),  a Philippines-based  provider of database administration and management services and business intelligence solutions, moved to NetSuite to better prepare for growth and expansion and to escape being tied down by inefficient and time-consuming processes associated with their on-premise systems. With NetSuite, the company not only streamlined sales, customer service and financial accounting processes, but also administrative processes that includes tax compliance reporting. SQL*Wizard can easily generate the required local tax reports from within the system—something that was not possible in the systems they used before. "NetSuite's tax reporting functionality enables our finance group to regularly generate the required monthly and quarterly reports without having to work overtime," according to Dinah Salonga, SQL*Wizard's Managing Director. "Not only does this help improve company efficiency, but I'm sure this helps employee morale as well."
