Use Case: Tax Compliance Management with KanBo Boards

Assuming responsibility for all operational and strategic tax issues of the MHP Group, both nationally and internationally is a big task. With KanBo, managing tax compliance for the MHP Group becomes a streamlined process that fosters collaboration and ensures everyone is on the same page. The following is an example of how the Tax Department can make use of KanBo Boards to manage their tasks and ensure compliance.

Create a KanBo Board for Tax Compliance Management

The first step is to create a board, specifically for Tax Compliance Management. The board will have several lists representing different stages in tax compliance, such as “Tax Planning,” “Tax Assessment,” and “Tax Reporting.” The Tax Department team members can then add cards to each list, representing the tasks required to complete the compliance process.

Create Cards for Compliance Tasks

Individual cards can be created for each of the compliance tasks needed to complete the process. These cards are assigned to team members responsible for completion. Cards can be color-coded to represent priority, deadlines, or any other relevant criteria.

Customize Cards with Microsoft Office Skills

With KanBo’s integration with Microsoft Office tools, team members can customize cards, add comments, attach files, links or even create documents in Microsoft Office format and upload them directly to the card. This functionality enables quicker, more efficient collaboration, and ensures that the necessary information is readily available to the team members.

Visualize Tasks with Kanban View

The Kanban view shows all the tasks organized by list. This view is perfect for a quick overview of the workload and progress of each task. Team members can use the drag and drop functionality of KanBo to move cards across lists, ensuring everyone knows the status of each task.

Collaborate Efficiently with MyBoard

By creating a personal workspace in MyBoard, Tax Department members can manage their individual workloads of tax compliance tasks. This workspace collects cards from boards and allows them to visualize a personal stream of work. A user can add or remove cards to and from it and even set up an automatic workflow to automate some of the tasks.

The above use-case example is just one of many ways that the automotive industry can benefit from KanBo’s work coordination platform. With the use of boards and cards, team members can manage their tasks efficiently, meet compliance requirements, and ensure everyone is on the same page. Implementing KanBo’s work coordination platform gives the automotive industry a competitive edge in managing complex workflows.
