Change a jurisdiction's tax collection method

Introduction

Anrok provides the flexibility to choose when to apply sales tax on customer-facing invoices in a jurisdiction. Within each jurisdiction, you can select the following tax collection methods:

• Paid by seller — Anrok will calculate sales tax but will not include the tax amount calculated on customer-facing invoices. In this case, as the seller, you will absorb that sales tax cost and pay it on your customer's behalf. Paid by seller is often selected if you have not communicated to customers about a sales tax change to their invoices.
• Collected from customer — Anrok will calculate tax and include the tax amount calculated on customer-facing invoices. In this case, your customer will pay sales tax as part of their invoice. 

If a jurisdiction's tax collection method needs to be updated, you can switch between Paid by seller and Collected from customer. You also have the option to specify and change a jurisdiction's collect-from-customer start date.
