How is CbC reporting a data management challenge?

Typically, a company's financial accounting systems are set up to support publicly filed financial statements and management reporting. Rarely do they support tax reporting. As a result, CbC reporting will severely test the corporate tax departments' ability to collect, tie-out and present their financial and non-financial data in the format required by the CbC reporting template. To improve accuracy and provide a defensible audit trail, CbC reporting necessitates a reconciliation of the company’s published financial statements to its legal entity books and accounts in all currencies and in accounting standards; its local tax returns filed in each country with the filed CbC reporting template.
