 * Professional Accounting Credentials (Highly Desirable): Look for a CPA (Certified Public Accountant) or Chartered Accountant (CA). When an SAP consultant has a CPA, they actually understand why the tax logic needs to behave a certain way, rather than blindly configuring fields.

 * Interface Architecture: Proven ability to configure RFC destinations, manage ALE/IDoc communications, and map standard BAPIs/APIs between SAP and the tax software.

External Tax Engine Expertise (Vertex / Sabrix) OPTIONAL

 * Tax Assist Rules: The ability to write complex lookup and override rules directly inside the tax engine to handle custom product taxability matrixes or specific buyer exemptions.
 * Geographic Jurisdiction Codes: Experience setting up tax jurisdiction code structures inside SAP so the tax engine accurately calculates state, county, city, and district-level taxes.
