ONESOURCE Guide to Support

Customer Service and Product Support follow these guidelines to maximize the value of your support experience by using best practices that expedite resolutions.

Contacting Support

If after reasonable efforts, your internal support organization can't find a solution, you can contact Support. To help you, we may need reasonable and necessary access to repository files, log files, and/or database extracts to effectively troubleshoot a resolution.

Case management

You create cases for Product Support for tracking the status of your question or problem. If you use the Case Management Dashboard, sign in to create your case. For critical issues that arise outside business hours, assign a high priority to your case. Product Support receives alerts for these critical matters.

Premium support

These products have premium support available per the terms of the customer contract:
  • Global Trade Management (LATAM)
  • Global Trade Management powered by Integration Point
  • ONESOURCE Pagero
  • ONESOURCE E-Invoicing
  • ONESOURCE Indirect Tax (Determination, not Compliance)

Cloud environment outages

In the event of a system outage, Thomson Reuters delivers the status and any related updates using the system status page. To receive these updates by email or text, subscribe to the service on the system status page.
For standard maintenance, you receive 2 calendar weeks before the maintenance date and 48-hour notice for emergency maintenance situations.

Environment and systems support

For incidents related to your local, company-specific IT configurations, Product Support gives limited assistance due to the unique, technical knowledge needed to support a company's network. In such cases, Product Support may request you involve your IT administrator.

3rd party IT support

Collaboration between Thomson Reuters Product Support professionals, you as our customer, and your IT support is important in delivering effective and efficient solutions to you. We recommend these practices for a successful support arrangement.
  • Maintain continuity of incident ownership. We recommend 1 individual from your IT provider works to resolve the incident from start to finish avoiding delays in resolution time. We also recommend 1 individual from your firm stays involved from start to finish.
  • Remain current on IT training and certifications. We recommend your IT provider works to ensure their resource pool have current certifications and training.

Service-level agreement (SLA)

Product Support works hard to help resolve any issues that arise for you as efficiently as possible.
  • Initial go-live and upgrade policy.
     We ask you to involve Thomson Reuters Professional Services or Product Support when planning to go-live or upgrade your system. This ensures the associated restoral time SLA stays in affect. Note that if SLAs don't stay in effect, Product Support continues with our best efforts to resolve the incident.
    • Testing.
       As part of troubleshooting a production issue that happens immediately after an upgrade or other significant change to production, we ask you to document occurrences of the issues in a test environment before the upgrade.
  • Authorized support contacts.
     These are your employees or contractors you designate as your firm representative for submitting cases and interacting with Product Support. If you outsource production support to 3rd parties, you want to ensure such 3rd party delegates receive training and that they obtain an account with Product Support as an authorized contact. We recommend authorized contacts stay current with their product use and knowledge.
  • IT resources.
     Thomson Reuters may request an authorized contact involve 1 or more IT administrators or business resources to help with the incident.
  • Restoral time.
     Restoral time SLAs objective is to return your product environment to working order within the allowed time limit. If a transition to Product Support didn't occur, the restoral time SLA won't apply. Note that if SLAs don't stay in effect, Product Support continues with our best efforts to resolve the incident.

Additional items not covered under SLAs

  • Custom integrations and other custom code.
     Our testing environments don't include all customizations, whether built by you, a 3rd party, or by Thomson Reuters Professional Services. Standard contracts don't cover the maintenance of customizations, as such Thomson Reuters isn't responsible for customizations impacted by an update/upgrade. Contact your account manager who can assist you in getting the customization working again. This work is billable by time and materials.
  • Customer on-premise infrastructure.
     Product Support helps you troubleshoot complex issues in your product and on-premise IT infrastructure. In cases where the IT infrastructure is the root cause, we may recommend an environment review with Thomson Reuters Professional Services or a 3rd party IT consulting company. This includes IT infrastructure and environments not meeting minimum system requirements.
  • Product releases.
     We continuously enhance our products to give you new functionality and to stay current with necessary guidelines. Following industry standards, older versions of the product and associated platforms are formally no longer supported.
  • Product's intended use.
     Utilization of the product in accordance with its intended design and use must align to qualify for coverage under SLAs.
