ONESOURCE Certificate Manager is cloud software for managing sales-tax exemption certificates tied to exempt transactions. It is designed for mid-market and enterprise tax teams, including manufacturers, distributors, government and nonprofit sellers, retailers, and businesses operating across multiple jurisdictions. The product brings collection, state-specific validation, storage, expiration monitoring, renewal reminders, reporting, and customer self-service uploads into one workflow. Its focus is certificate compliance rather than broad tax administration.

The product’s strongest fit is for organizations that need structured control over certificate lifecycles. Customers can upload documents through a self-service portal, while centralized tracking and customizable email templates support collection and renewal processes. Automated expiration-date monitoring, renewal reminders, and audit-ready reporting address recurring operational work. A library of more than 300 current and historic indirect tax forms adds breadth to document management. The integration with ONESOURCE Determination connects exemption documentation with tax calculation, making the product more suitable for teams already using that system or evaluating the broader ONESOURCE ecosystem.

Pricing follows a contact-sales model, with no free plan. That approach suits larger organizations evaluating a specialized compliance component, but it gives smaller teams less self-directed purchasing flexibility. ONESOURCE Certificate Manager does not perform tax filing or tax calculation, so it should be chosen for certificate collection, validation, storage, renewal, and reporting—not as a standalone tax platform. Enterprises with substantial exemption-certificate volume and multi-jurisdiction processes are the clearest audience; organizations seeking filing or calculation capabilities should consider a product that covers those functions.
