GloBE Reporting Just Got Easier with Oracle
The global minimum tax, known as Pillar Two of the OECD's Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project, has introduced significant challenges for multinational enterprises (MNEs).
Oracle has been steadily updating its Tax Reporting Cloud Service to help companies meet the challenges related to GloBE reporting.
While circumstances are specific to each company, a common challenge they all have is around data collection and jurisdiction compliance.
- GloBE requires the collection and analysis of vast amounts of data from various sources. Oracle TRC provides native data integration capabilities, including pre-built connectors to common ERP systems and enhanced data validation rules to ensure accuracy.
- Determining the effective tax rate (ETR) and top-up tax under GloBE involves complex calculations. Oracle is providing automated calculations, reducing manual effort and the risk of errors.
- GloBE reporting requires specific templates and disclosures. Over the past 2 years, Oracle is providing enhanced reporting capabilities, including pre-built reports aligned with the latest OECD guidance and customisable dashboards for better data visualisation and analysis.
- GloBE rules can vary across jurisdictions. Oracle highly customisable tax automation rules provide the ability to address country-specific requirements, ensuring compliance with local regulations.
Benefits of Using Oracle Tax Reporting for GloBE:
- Centralised Data Management: Consolidate all your GloBE-relevant data in a single platform for easier access and analysis.
- Automated Calculations: Reduce manual effort and minimise errors in complex ETR and top-up tax calculations.
- Improved Accuracy and Compliance: Ensure accurate reporting and compliance with the latest GloBE rules and regulations.
- Increased Efficiency: Streamline your GloBE reporting process and free up valuable time for other tasks.
- Reduced Risk: Minimise the risk of penalties and reputational damage associated with non-compliance.
Oracle Tax Reporting continues to evolve to meet the complex demands of GloBE reporting. By leveraging these new features, MNEs can streamline their compliance processes, reduce risk, and gain valuable insights from their data.

General EPM Strategy FAQs
Why should a company use EPM Automate instead of custom scripting
EPM Automate allows for robust, bi-directional data orchestration between Oracle EPM and source ERPs (like NetSuite or Fusion) using native capabilities. It is highly scalable, easier to maintain during Oracle's monthly updates, and avoids the fragility of heavy custom coding.
Can Oracle Cloud EPM integrate with multiple different ERPs simultaneously?
Yes. Through strategic data pipeline architecture, Oracle EPM can ingest, consolidate, and even write-back finalized data to multiple disparate ERPs concurrently, acting as the single source of truth for the enterprise.
How does Oracle FCCS handle Minority Interest (NCI) and CTA?
While standard FCCS provides out-of-the-box functionality, complex global enterprises often require advanced configuration to isolate and calculate Minority Interest (NCI) and Cumulative Translation Adjustments (CTA) accurately at the top consolidated hierarchy without relying on manual journals.
Can you bypass the out-of-the-box Goodwill calculation in Oracle FCCS?
Yes. By utilizing advanced native configuration and custom consolidation rules, you can bypass standard Goodwill Input/Offset functionality to meet highly specific, non-standard acquisition accounting requirements.
How many daily transactions can Oracle ARCS process?
Oracle ARCS is built for enterprise scale. With proper architecture in the Transaction Matching engine, ARCS can easily process and auto-match hundreds of thousands of daily banking transactions, representing billions of dollars in value.
What is the difference between Transaction Matching and Reconciliation Compliance in ARCS?
Transaction Matching automates the high-volume, line-by-line matching of data (like daily bank feeds or ACH). Reconciliation Compliance is used to govern the period-end justification of broader balance sheet account balances.
Does Oracle TRC handle Country-by-Country Reporting (CbCR)?
Yes. Oracle Tax Reporting Cloud (TRC) provides built-in frameworks to automate Country-by-Country Reporting, ensuring multinational organizations remain compliant with global BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) regulations.
How does Oracle TRC integrate with FCCS?
TRC and FCCS share the same platform architecture, allowing for seamless data flow. Finalized pre-tax consolidated data from FCCS feeds directly into TRC for tax provisioning, ensuring perfect alignment between the finance and tax departments.
