In the previously posted blog, we explored the ways through which users can seamlessly promote Salesforce Sales Order record to Sage 100 ERP system using native SFDC Lightning Components.

In this blog will dwell further on an interesting aspect on how the GUMU™ Integration Sales Order functions (for an integrated customer record), to which the tax calculation has been exempted in the Sage 100 ERP system.

In Sage 100 ERP system, there is a provision for the Sage 100 ERP users, wherein users can exempt a particular tax code present under the assigned Tax Schedule code in the Customer Maintenance screen. For instance, Customer A To Z Carpet Supply has Tax Code CA Exempted in the Tax Exemption Maintenance screen by the means of Tax Exemption Number on it.

Now when we use the same Accounts/Customers records on the GUMU™ Sales Order screen, it provides the users real-time tax calculation information for the selected item with the tax rate amount applied based on the Tax Exempted code associated with the Customers.

Taking the example further, users is able to view real-time tax rate information along with the calculated tax amount information based on the tax rule assigned in the Add Product Screen.

In the above instance, the tax rate information is calculated based on the tax rate applied for Tax Code “CA LA”.

In a second scenario, if the user proceeds further to add tax exemption number to the second Tax code, tax rate fetched from Sage 100 ERP would be zero and Sales tax will not be calculated on the GUMU™ Sales Order in accordance with the Sage 100 Order entry functionality.
