Avalara Managed Returns
for Accountants
by Avalara
The newly released Avalara Managed Returns for Accountants (MRA) supports firms of all sizes as
they work overtime to help clients solve for ongoing state-by-state economic nexus complexity,
as well as increased remote and ecommerce sales resulting from COVID-19. MRA is a cloud-based
sales tax returns solution designed specifically for use by accounting firms, enabling them to
scale without adding resources, and automate their preparation and filing practices.
MRA gives firms an outsourced tax compliance solution, leveraging the same technology
used to process returns and remittance for thousands of Avalara customers, from emerging
online businesses to enterprise organizations. With MRA, firms can:
* Manage the sales tax filing process for all clients and their returns from a single dashboard
designed for efficient accountant workflow, with customizable, multi-client views, all
managed from one cloud-based system.
* Automatically prepare tax returns based on the appropriate government forms and
state and local requirements.
* Remit payments on clients' behalf, with Avalara handling the filing, payment, and related
notice management (at firm's request) on behalf of clients.
* Work remotely, with staff managing clients' returns from any location, keeping the firm nimble and
efficient. Support omnichannel data imports, easily aggregating client sales information from multiple channels
and marketplaces.
* Keep client data safe and private, with MRA providing strong security controls.
Avalara MRA enables accounting firms to offload the complex tax return filing process in order to focus more
on audit preparation, nexus assessments, and other more profitable tax advisory services, contributing to
meaningful firm growth in 2021 and beyond.
