Tax Configuration

For resorts using Unity, Aspenware Commerce supports Taxes by shipping location, which will apply the tax rate configured for the shipping address entered by the guest during checkout.
Resorts using RTP|Connect cannot utilize this feature, and need to use Fixed Rate taxes, since Connect cannot specify a shipping address when creating an RTP|ONE order, which is required for tax by shipping location in RTP|ONE.

1. For resorts using Unity, if you wish to apply taxes by shipping location, navigate to Tax providers (Configuration>Tax providers>Manual>Configure).
   1. Select 'By Country'
   2. Configure tax by location for each region, state/province, or postal code.
   3. *IMPORTANT: The RTP|ONE administrator must also configure taxes by shipping location in RTP|ONE, and each region, province/state, or postal code must match the tax rates you configure in Aspenware Commerce.
   4. This will be the tax that is assigned to/set up in the product shell under 'Price'
   5. If taxes are NOT priced by location, then you will want to set this up with a flat rate (i.e. flat 7.45% tax). This requires a new tax category, you will assign a tax rate to United States as a whole.

*Note- Please reference tax set up and rules in the Aspenware Commerce Configuration Documentation), if more guidance in tax set up is necessary.
