The First Impact
2027 Brazil Tax Reform:
Will Your SAP Stop Invoicing on January 1st?
Phase 2 of the Brazilian Tax Reform brings the end of PIS/COFINS and the introduction of CBS. Origen Tech ensures the upgrade of your fiscal architecture, the evolution of your SAP DRC, and the transition of your ERP with zero operational impact.
The Problem and the Urgency
2027 is not the future. It is the next fiscal semester.
We are currently in the testing phase of the Tax Reform. Starting January 1st, 2027, Phase 2 goes into full effect for federal taxes. What changes in practice?
- 1 Definitive end of PIS and COFINS and the full implementation of CBS (Contribution on Goods and Services).
- 2 Introduction of IS (Selective Tax) for specific products.
- 3 Split Payment: initiation of complex divided payment operations.
- ! Risk of Credit Loss: strict transitional rules for inventory and tax credits accumulated until December 31, 2026.
If your system is not correctly configured and updated with the latest support packages, your company faces invoice rejections, billing halts, and tax penalties on the very first business day of 2027.
The Technical Impact on the SAP Ecosystem
Far beyond changing tax rates: a structural shift
Preparing for 2027 demands a deep review and the deployment of new packages in your SAP tax architecture. We have mapped the critical technical bottlenecks your company must resolve right now.
Evolution of SAP DRC for Dual VAT
Your DRC must be ready to support the new Tax Reform SAP Notes, ensuring accurate data extraction and compliance with the new reporting requirements from tax authorities.
New Calculation Schemas
Mandatory and complex updates to the Pricing schemas TAXBRA/TAXBRJ (in MM) and RVABRA/RVXBRA (in SD) to support the full non-cumulativity of CBS and the new tax bases.
SEFAZ Expansion and New Layouts
Adapting electronic messaging (NF-e) with the new "Taxes II" tab, specific blocks for CBS and IBS, and the mandatory expansion of critical fields, such as Status (cStat) to 5 digits.
Master Data and Tax Code Reconfiguration
A complete overhaul of tax tables (such as the J_1BTAXGRP domain) and the creation of a new Tax Code structure to reflect the new tax landscape in a scalable manner.
