Add Tax Jurisdictions
A tax jurisdiction is an area, a city, a municipality, a county, a province, a state or a country with its own distinct regulations for taxation. When setting up the Orchestration Console or expanding your business into a new area with different tax rules, tax jurisdictions are essential in ensuring that the system handles taxes properly.
Create a tax jurisdiction for every area with different tax rates.
