Resolution
- You will need to create your own tax code. To create a tax code in NetSuite, go to Setup > Accounting > Tax Codes > New.
- Select a tax code (new or other than AVATAX or -Not Taxable-) on the transactions which you don't want to post to AvaTax.
- Ensure that the 'Tax Amount Override' check box is not selected.
Note: Using custom tax codes, the AVATAX tab of the invoice will display errors such as...
- 'This Document has not used AvaTax Services for Tax Calculation. Taxcode selected is not an AVATAX Taxcode'
- 'Taxcode is not set to AVATAX or the Tax rates are not equal to zero for all the line items'.
