Resolution

Enable 'Override AvaTax Taxcode' checkbox option on Avalara Configuration under General tab.
- If you want to override the item tax code on the transaction and provide transaction level tax code precedence
If this checkbox is checked and you select 'Non-taxable' for any item line on transaction; then while saving the transaction respective transaction's tax code i.e. 'Non-taxable' shall be retained for item lines even though those are having any taxable tax code mapped on item master.
