Summary:
Anshul Life Sciences is a leading company in the area of specialty chemicals, with leading multinationals
as their principals. The company uses SAP B1 to automate the enterprise process requirements..
However, when it came to enterprise taxation, it faced multiple challenges and the existing setup was
unable to meet the taxation requirements. Therefore, Anshul looked for a solution to this and zeroed in
on iTAX as a possible solution. iTAX is a unique tax processing software that integrates with any ERP or
enterprise system to extend and automate enterprise taxation.
Udyog Software (India) Limited built a specific SAP B1 connector to extract data for qualification,
validation and mapping to iTAX. The connector is of significance as it can be reconfigured for other SAP
B1 implementations. Following sections delineate how iTAX has helped Anshul gain control of its tax
requirements….

CASE STUDY: ANSHUL LIFE SCIENCES
A SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION OF iTAX WITH SAP B1
A Brief Profile of Company
Established in 1978, Anshul Life Sciences is a pioneer in
distribution and marketing specialty chemicals.
Its range of myriad products include excipients,
specialty chemicals, raw materials and filtration systems
catering to the Pharmaceutical, Nutraceuticals,
Cosmeceutical, Personal care, Agrochemicals,
Automotive and other specialty segments.
It is the recipient of “Best Distributor Award for ISP” in
2001, 2003 & 2004 respectively, and among its
principals are the best of breed international suppliers.
Anshul implemented SAP B1 ERP to streamline its
Supply chain, automate and enrich the user experience.
The SAP B1 ERP was meant to improvise Anshul’s
existing processes for Accounting, Inventory & Order
processing. It also included a customized Excise Module
for its trading business.
Challenges
Anshul faced difficulties in running the Excise Module in
SAP B1. These included:
• Data integrity issues to meet the requirements of
Excise, and using multiple and customized
software
• Non-availability of required data in ERP to
generate Excise reports appropriately. E.g. RG-
23D page number and serial number were
missing.
• Data qualification, validation and error logging
features were unavailable, and hence were
difficult to meet required statutory obligations.
• Data update capability used to edit, sales return
and purchase return

complete with all taxation modules – Excise Documentation (for manufacturers &
traders), Service Tax, documents for EOU’s & SEZ’s, TDS & e-TDS, VAT & CST (State-wise)

iTAX Solution for Anshul
A detailed evaluation of SAP B1 Enterprise was carried
out by Udyog functional consultants to assess tax type
requirements, determine data availability and
identification of missing data to arrive at a data extraction
plan.
It was understood that a SAP B1 specific data connector
was needed to integrate with iTAX.
Udyog’s core technical team closely worked with Anshul
Life Sciences to develop a utility which could be
configured to establish connection with the SAP B1
database to extract relevant information for iTAX.
Post development of the connector, a complete field to
field mapping was done for each master and transaction.
Delta data was captured separately, special and
conditional settings were done for generating Excise
related fields missing in SAP B1. The technical team from
Udyog ensured Integrator specific configurations, error
handling and data reconciliation, testing and sign off of
the implementation.
Raw data once extracted from SAP B1 was qualified &
transformed within the Integrator, and loaded into iTAX,
for further processing of statutory reports.
iTAX was deployed successfully for all locations of
Anshul with remote locations accessing a centralized
server.
Result
iTAX resolved the difficulties faced by Anshul
Life Sciences, for using their taxation module and
ensured that the necessary statutory registers and
reports were in sync with the statutory compliance.
Udyog completed the project at Anshul in a
record’s time. Anshul could generate the necessary
reports:
RG-23D
Form 2
Defacing Slip
Purchase and Sales Register
Modvat passed & Not passed
Stock Balance position
