Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for implementing a software architecture design for a software application implementing tax declaration. The application is structured as multiple process components interacting with each other through service interfaces, and multiple service interface operations, each being implemented for a respective process component. The process components include an Accounting process component, a Due Item Processing process component, and a Payment Processing process component.
