Lucasys Tax Repairs Is Now Live on SAP® Store

We are excited to announce that Lucasys Tax Repairs is now available on the SAP® Store. It joins the Lucasys Income Tax Suite already there, alongside Tax Depreciation, Deferred Tax, Tax Provision, TBBS, and Copilot, and it integrates directly with SAP S/4HANA® Cloud and SAP ERP.

The hardest dollar on the return

For utilities and energy companies, few tax positions carry as much money, or as much scrutiny, as the repair versus capitalize determination. Every year, thousands of work orders, projects, and asset additions have to be evaluated and sorted into deductible repairs or capital improvements. Get it right and you accelerate real cash tax benefits. Get it wrong, or fail to document how you got there, and you invite questions from the IRS and from the commissions that regulate your rates.

For too long, that work has lived in disconnected data pulls and layered spreadsheets that are slow to build, hard to review, and difficult to defend a year or two later when someone asks how a number was reached. Tax Repairs was built to change that.

What Lucasys Tax Repairs does

Tax Repairs evaluates work orders, projects, and asset additions against the industry safe harbor methods that utilities and energy companies actually use, then classifies every dollar as a deductible repair or a capital improvement. Because it integrates with SAP S/4HANA Cloud and SAP ERP, plant, work order, and asset data stay aligned with tax, so classifications stay consistent, reviewable, and traceable from the original transaction to the final tax position.

A few things make it different:

Automated classification at scale. The Repairs dashboard totals every work order as expense, capital, or undetermined, then breaks the result out by line of business, from gas and electric transmission and distribution to generation. You see where your spend landed, and how much, at a glance.

A decision tree for every line of business. Each line runs its own sequence of tests, whether replacement, automatic capital, minimum cost safe harbor, betterment, or non-linear. Open any test and the individual rules inside it are right there, so the basis for each conclusion is always visible.

Work order level detail behind every conclusion. Detailed results list each work order with the test that decided it, the reason, the threshold applied, and the amounts compared. Save custom views, flag exceptions, and record an override reason wherever judgment applies.

An audit trail built for examination. Trace any tax position back through the rules applied, the reviewer decisions recorded, and the source transaction that produced it. The documentation is reproducible, it supports your regulatory filings, and it stands up to IRS and commission examination.

Answers before you file. See repair versus capitalize outcomes by company, line of business, asset class, and cost category as work is processed. Early visibility into the drivers and the anomalies supports forecasting, rate case support, and proactive planning.

Built for asset-intensive industries, priced with no surprises

Tax Repairs reflects how we build every Lucasys application. It is cloud-native, it is built by tax professionals who have sat in the same seat as our customers, and it is offered with transparent, unbundled pricing so you pay for what you use. Whether you run electric and gas utility operations or an upstream, midstream, or integrated energy business, Tax Repairs meets you where your data already lives, inside SAP.
