To integrate ScalarTax, a Sales Tax Calculation service with REST APIs, into any platform or service, you typically follow a series of steps
Start by creating an account with ScalarTax and obtaining the required API credentials, such as an API key or token. These credentials will be used to authenticate the connection between ScalarTax and Kugamon.
Access your Kugamon account or platform and navigate to the automation or settings section. Depending on the capabilities of Kugamon, you may need to configure custom automation settings.
Within Kugamon, configure the automation settings to include the ScalarTax API credentials. This establishes the connection between ScalarTax and Kugamon.
Define how data from Kugamon should be mapped to ScalarTax’s API requests. Specify which Kugamon transactions, fields, and tax codes correspond to transaction amounts, customer locations, product details, and tax-exempt status.
ScalarTax processes the API request and calculates the applicable sales tax based on the provided data, including tax rates, jurisdictions, and tax codes.
Within Kugamon, configure the automation settings to include the ScalarTax API credentials. This establishes the connection between ScalarTax and Kugamon.
The calculated tax details are then integrated back into the corresponding records within Kugamon. This ensures that the tax amount and other pertinent tax-related information are seamlessly included in your financial records.
Utilize Kugamon’s reporting and accounting features to ensure compliance with tax regulations. This automation can help you generate accurate tax reports and records for auditing and filing purposes.
Implement mechanisms to handle errors, including notifications to administrators or users in the event of tax calculation issues.
Thoroughly test the automation to ensure the accuracy of tax calculations and the smooth operation of the connection.
Stay updated with ScalarTax’s API changes and updates, as well as any changes in the Kugamon automation. Provide support to users who work with this integrated system.
Keep in mind that the specific automation steps and features may vary depending on the capabilities and requirements of Kugamon, which would need to be confirmed based on its official documentation and support.
