TaxCloud
TaxCloud is an Auto Sales Tax Rate provider that can dynamically generate the right Sales Tax for your customer orders based on the customer's location and the products being purchased.
To setup the integration to TaxCloud, we have to complete the following setup steps:
- Signup for a TaxCloud Account and Generate TaxCloud API Keys
- Setup TaxCloud API Keys in Agiliron for API Access
- Add the TaxCloud Tax Information Code (TIC) to products
These steps are covered in more detail below.
Signup for a TaxCloud Account and Generate TaxCloud API Keys:
