- Enable Address Validation: If you disable address validation, AvaTax Update uses the customer's ship-to address as entered to calculate the correct sales tax. Sales tax might be calculated incorrectly if this option is disabled.
- Optional: Save Transactions to AvaTax: If this is not enabled, transactions are not committed to AvaTax.
- Optional: Enable UPC Code as Item Code: Select to send a UPC instead of an item code to AvaTax. Using this feature may trigger additional fees. Talk to your Customer Account Manager (CAM) for more information.
- Enable Tax Calculation: If you choose to disable tax calculation, your accounting software no longer uses AvaTax to calculate tax on transactions.
- Optional: Allow Tax Override: Enable to allow AvaTax to override the tax amount.
- Shipping Code: Enter the tax code that AvaTax should use to calculate tax on shipping and handling fees.
- Enable AvaTax Exemptions: Enable to use the exemptions utility, which allows you to create exemptions records in Exemptions or CertCapture via Salesforce Sales Cloud if you use one of those products.
- Optional: Disable AvaTax Triggers: If you disable AvaTax triggers, orders you delete in Salesforce Sales Cloud are not voided in AvaTax.
