Meet Local File deadlines and ensure compliance with ATO requirements

The Australian Local File requires specific transfer pricing and business information, such as local business strategy to be prepared and reported by Significant Global Entities (SGEs). Reporting is via a standard format that needs to be electronically lodged via Standard Business Reporting (SBR) methods.

The data formatting, packaging and transmission complexities associated with Australian Local File requirements makes an automated software solution a necessity.
