Last February 12, 2015, the Taxpayer Registration System (TRS) of the Electronic Tax Information System or (eTIS-1) was rolled out in two pilot offices of the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).
The two pilot office are Revenue District Office No. 50-South Makati, headed by RDO Maridur V. Rosario, and Large Taxpayers Division, headed by OIC-Chief Edralin M. Silario. Eventually, it was replicated in RD 44-Taguig-Peteros (headed by OIC-RDO Rodolfo G. Mendoza last February 23, 2015.
eTIS-1 is a web-based application that uses a modern platform consisting of eight (8) functions, namely: Taxpayer Registration System (TRS), Returns Filing and Processing (RFP), Collection, Remittance and Reconciliation (CRR), Audit, Case Management System (CMS), Taxpayer Accounts System (TAS), Batch Architecture Module (BAM) and System Administration Management (SAM).
eTIS-1 will have a central database that will fully intereface with and combine the information in various BIR systems, such as eFPS, eREG, eLAMS, eSALES, MR-COS and ARMS, among others.
In eTIS-1, an audit case is accessible not only by the case officer (Revenue Officer-Assessment) but also by the team lead (Group Supervisor) and all those who have reviewing and monitoring functions and access. All case management details, as defined by the user, will be accessible in one file. This will make it easier for al users of eTIS-1 to track down the activities. There will also be controls to prevent unauthorized access by end user not involved in the audit process.
Besides, auditing decisions will be determined based on criteria and audit cases assigned automatically and anonymously that will lead to greater transparency and ocjectivity in the auditing process and decisions.
