Example of Using Country Information in Tax Rules

For many regimes, it is important to know if the supply of goods is exported. The easiest way of doing this is to ensure that the ship-from location is from the country in question and the ship-to location is a different country.

The following scenario illustrates setting up tax rule components to identify if the goods are exported from the United States.

Creating Tax Rule Components

Create a tax determining factor set as follows:

Determining Factor Class

Class Qualifier

Determining Factor Name

Create a condition set that refers to this geography determining factor as follows:

Use this combination of determining factors in any situation where you need to identify exports from the United States.
