To start the configuration in Versa Cloud ERP
Assign Tax Code to Categories:
- Tax code is a way to identify the products so they can be looked up correctly by Avalara. To see a listing of all available Avalara System tax codes, click (http://taxcode.avatax.avalara.com). If you do not provide a tax code for products through product categories, Versa will assume the product is a taxable product.
- To start assigning Avalara Tax Code to product categories go to Products>Setup>Categories.
- Select the desired category and click on Edit
- Under the Edit product category, the user can select the “Avalara Tax code” for the product and click on “Update Category”
- To see a listing of all available AvaTax System tax codes, click (http://taxcode.avatax.avalara.com).
Assign Entity Use Code to Customers:
- Entity Use Codes are used to identify reasons for exemption available in AvaTax. You can set this code as the customer record level. If you do not assign an entity tax code to a customer, then the customer is assumed to be taxable.
- To start assigning Entity Use Code to Customers go to Customers>List.
- Select the desired customer and click on Edit
- Note that AvaTax requires the state in the address fields to be a two-letter code.
- Under the Edit customer sections, the user can see the “AvaTax Entity Code”. Update the entity code as required and click on update.
Assign Entity Use Code to Invoices
In situations where a customer is taxable but for a certain invoicing transaction the user required an override to make the customer non-taxable. The user while creating an invoice, under the “AvaTax Entity code” selects non-taxable and proceeds as per usual. This will override only the invoicing transaction without affecting the tax status of the customer.
Assign Tax Override Date to Transactions
In certain cases, you might want to look up taxes based on a certain date. Normally, the AvaTax integration will use the invoice date, sales order date, sales quote date as the date to look up taxes. If you want to use a different date (a credit invoice for a transaction that happened in the past and the tax rates have changed since), you can use the Tax Override Date. First go to setup, custom fields and create a new custom field (choose Date as field type) for invoice , order and quote forms. Name the custom field “Tax Override Date”. Make sure this date is entered when you want to use a different date to look up taxes.
