SharePoint AMS Certified for Avalara’s Sales Tax Automation Solution
The SharePoint eCommerce Module by SharePoint AMS adds eCommerce capabilities to SharePoint’s already impressive enterprise war chest.
This week the powerful eCommerce engine by SharePoint AMS achieved online sales tax level certification from Avalara, Inc.(www.avalara.com), the global leader in online sales tax calculation and compliance automation.
“We want our customers to focus on their business. Keeping up with ever changing tax laws and shifting jurisdictions detracts from this focus” said Sean Bordner, CEO of SharePoint AMS.
As a result of this certification, customers can now use pinpoint accurate real-time calculation capabilities from within SharePoint AMS’s existing workflow to automatically calculate the final sales tax amount on every invoice. This eliminates the tedious work and complexity of calculating taxes across multiple jurisdictions and helps businesses focus on their core offering.
“We’re constantly trying to help our customers manage their businesses more efficiently” said Scott Devore, Sr. Sales & Marketing for SharePoint AMS. “The combination of the enhanced features and ease of integration makes a compelling story for SharePoint in the enterprise eCommerce space. Our integration with Avalara will allow SharePoint eCommerce Module users to easily manage and remain up-to-date on increasingly complicated tax regulations.”
