How Tax Jurisdictions Are Determined

The tax jurisdictions for employees and locations are derived based on the geospatial coordinates of a verified address.

You can view an employee's resident and work tax jurisdictions their Tax Jurisdictions card.

  • Unless overridden, their resident tax jurisdiction is determined by their home address.

    You can override the resident tax jurisdiction with a Resident Tax Address on their person record.

  • Unless overridden, their work tax jurisdiction is determined by their work location address.

    You can override the work tax jurisdiction with a Location Override on location record.

You can view a location's tax jurisdictions in Work Tax Jurisdictions on the Manage Locations task.

Note:

If a person or location has an address record that hasn't been assigned geospatial coordinates, the Tax Jurisdictions card bases its jurisdictions context on the address itself. It doesn't automatically detect local tax jurisdictions for these addresses.
