How ONESOURCE Pagero’s two-step approach outperforms traditional mapping
The two-step approach transforms data integration by centralising and standardising processes, enabling organisations to achieve faster, more reliable, and easily scalable compliance and connectivity.
How ONESOURCE Pagero's two-step approach outperforms traditional mapping
The technical architecture of ONESOURCE Pagero delivers significant advantages over traditional mapping approaches:
Interoperability
Pagero internal format
Enables seamless communication across systems and jurisdictions via a standardised, unified format within the Pagero network
Traditional data mapping
Requires individual integrations for each system or tax authority, limiting flexibility and increasing the maintenance burden
Complexity and costs
Pagero internal format
Reduces complexity and cost by avoiding redundant mapping efforts — leverages centralised configuration and updates across all partners and countries
Traditional data mapping
High cost and complexity due to repeated mapping tasks and customised configurations for each source-target connection
Data quality and accuracy
Pagero internal format
Ensures consistent, validated, and enriched data using business rules applied centrally in the internal format, minimising the risk of errors and rejections
Traditional data mapping
Risk of errors and data inconsistencies in each mapping layer; validations are often missing or performed inconsistently across systems
Automation
Pagero internal format
Fully supports automation through machine-readable structure, central rule application — such as schematrons, and dynamic enrichment of business data
Traditional data mapping
Custom logic and manual scripting needed per mapping; limits automation and increases operational risk
Scalability
Pagero internal format
Scales efficiently — Pagero centrally applies regulatory changes, such as new mandates and validations, through schematrons and other rules, reducing the burden on customers
Traditional data mapping
Each regulatory change requires manual mapping adjustments per customer or system, leading to delays, cost, and compliance risk
Global compliance
Pagero internal format
Built-in support for global and local requirements, including e-archiving mandates — managed centrally through configuration across jurisdictions
Traditional data mapping
Local compliance — such as archiving rules — must be configured separately per system or customer, increasing risk and overhead
Speed to implementation
Pagero internal format
Accelerates onboarding and compliance through pre-defined formats, network profiles, and routing rules — no need to include electronic IDs in source files
Traditional data mapping
Longer lead times due to manual setup of routing, customer-specific logic, and reliance on source-file enrichment, like adding electronic IDs
Maintainability
Pagero internal format
Simplifies maintenance — changes are made once centrally in Pagero’s internal format and propagated across the network, ensuring consistency and rapid response to new requirements
Traditional data mapping
High maintenance burden; each change must be updated, tested, and deployed in every mapping and system, increasing chances of inconsistencies
