Frequently Asked Questions

What does the PandaDoc AvaTax integration do?

This integration connects your PandaDoc account directly to Avalara's AvaTax platform, enabling real-time, accurate sales tax calculations on your PandaDoc documents. It automatically applies the correct tax rates and rules for every US jurisdiction, without manual lookups or switching between systems.

Why not just use PandaDoc' built-in tax fields?

PandaDoc lets you enter a tax name and rate manually on each line, but the rate is yours to set and maintain. That works fine if you sell in one state with one rate, but breaks down the moment you have nexus in multiple jurisdictions, sell taxable services with different rules per state, or need exemption certificate management. AvaTax handles all of that automatically.

Is it hard to set up?

Not at all. You can be connected in minutes - no IT support required. A quick call with the Taxiom team will get you up and running in no time.

How accurate are the tax calculations?

AvaTax is updated multiple times per day to reflect changes in tax rates and rules across all US jurisdictions, meaning your rates are always current. This is far more reliable than static rate tables or manual lookups.

Can it handle product-specific tax rules?

Yes. You can map your PandaDoc Items to Avalara tax codes so AvaTax knows exactly what you're selling - whether it's software, clothing, shipping, or a professional service - and applies the correct taxability rules automatically.

What about exempt customers?

The integration allows you to exempt customers both manually and automatically. If you use Avalara's Exemption Certificate Management (ECM), exempt customers are recognized in real time, so tax is not charged where it shouldn't be.

When does the transaction get committed to Avalara?

Tax is calculated as soon as you create or update an invoice in PandaDoc. The transaction is then committed to Avalara automatically when the invoice is marked paid - making it eligible for reporting and filing. If you delete an invoice in PandaDoc, the matching Avalara transaction is voided automatically.
