Check before buying: Because access to DATEV usually runs through a tax advisory firm rather than a direct contract, clarify with that firm which modules and AI features, such as Copilot or Personal-Benchmark, are actually licensed. DATEV publishes its data processing agreement and lists further processors per product, so check which ones apply to the AI features you use. Works council involvement is worth confirming where compensation benchmarking touches individual pay data.
