Organizing and managing a transaction-related dimension of tax-related
data allows for the generation of fact details to facilitate payment of taxes.
First, a transaction-related dimension of tax-related data is provided along with
a plurality of attributes for the transaction-related dimension. Such attributes
include a transaction line item determined based on a transaction identifier, a
transaction type, a tax type, a customer account identifier, a sold to location
geographic code, a ship to location geographic code, a contract number, a purchase
order number, a vendor account identifier, and a vendor zip code. Next, a plurality
of entries are received which are associated with the attributes of the transaction-related
dimension. A plurality of fact details are then generated using the entries of
a predetermined set of the attributes of the transaction-related dimension. Thereafter,
a set of aggregate fact details are generated based on the plurality of fact details.
These aggregate fact details are then outputted.
