Example of Using Geography Levels in Tax Rules

Use the geography element in tax rules to identify a specific geography region when taxes in a country need to identify geography elements for the country level.

For example, in US Sales and Use Tax, you may need to create tax rules for a specific state.

The following scenario describes how you can set up tax rule components to identify when goods are being delivered to a specific state, such as Ohio.

Creating Tax Rule Components

Create a tax determining factor set with the following geography elements:

Determining Factor Class

Tax Class Qualifier

Determining Factor Name

Geography

Ship to

State

Create a condition set that refers to a specific state value as follows:

Determining Factor Class

Class Qualifier

Determining Factor Name

Operator

Value

Geography

Ship to

State

Equal to

Ohio

You can use this combination of determining factors in any situation where you need to identify specific deliveries to a specific state.
