Calculating the correct tax rate on an invoice involves multiple complex steps: validating addresses, applying sourcing rules, identifying jurisdiction-specific regulations, confirming exemption status, checking product taxability, verifying tax holidays, then accurately determining the final tax rate. Avalara seamlessly integrates with Agiliron Omnichannel to perform these tasks within a fraction of a second, across tax types, locations, and industries, while securely storing the data for future filing and reporting.
Avalara AvaTax automatically calculates sales and use tax for transactions, invoices, and other activity powered by Agiliron. AvaTax is an advanced solution that uses geolocation and address verification to calculate sales tax down to a specific address, accounting for multiple tax jurisdictions in a single ZIP code, complex tax tiers, and more.
Agiliron sends transaction data to AvaTax, and AvaTax sends back the tax total. Customers, salespeople, and others can see the tax owed in real time in your shopping cart. AvaTax is updated at regular intervals to reflect changing rates and rules in the 12,000+ U.S. sales and use tax jurisdictions. That means you can stop looking up sales tax rates altogether.
Establish a direct link between AvaTax and Agiliron via a prebuilt connection that allows for seamless interaction. You won't need IT support to get started, in most instances.
