Resolution

  • First, create two Canadian tax codes. Within NetSuite, go to Setup > Accounting > Tax Codes >  New
    • The first code should be Avatax-GST. The other should be Avatax-PST
    • Create both with 0.0% tax rates
      • For the PST tax code, select any Province 
  • Second, create a new Canadian Tax Group. Go to Setup > Accounting > Groups >  New
    • Name this new tax group Avatax-CAN
    • Set the tax rate to 0.0%
    • Map the GST and PST tax codes to the tax group
  • Last, set the default tax code to Avatax-CAN. Go to Setup > Accounting > Setup Taxes
