Exemption Certificates Setup
Exploring
This program only applies to the Tax Connector - Avalara.
This program lets you configure and test your connection to CertCapture for access to tax exemption certificates, to avoid failed transactions when you add, change or delete a customer.
This program is accessed from the Program List of the SYSPRO menu:
- Program List > General Ledger > Tax > Tax Interface
The Avalara platform is a powerful and easy-to-use API that helps businesses automate the calculating, storing, auditing and reporting of transactional taxes.
The CertCapture component helps you maintain compliance by creating, validating, storing and managing sales tax exemptions and reseller certificates.
Tax Connectors provide a connection for establishing a direct link between SYSPRO and compatible cloud-based tax calculation systems (e.g. Avalara and Vertex).
Tax Connectors manage the export of data to these systems so that quarterly and annual sales tax returns can be produced for state filing purposes.
