Stop Managing Sales Tax by Hand

Thursday October 1st, at 11 AM PST

Western Computer teal webinar

A practical session for finance and IT leaders running Microsoft Dynamics across more than one state.

Your company grew. It added states, channels, and product lines. Somewhere along the way, keeping tax rates current in your ERP and tracking exemption certificates in spreadsheets became a job nobody signed up for, and one nobody is confident is being done correctly.

In one hour, Western Computer and Avalara will walk through how sales tax obligations get created, what manual tax work is actually costing your team, and how calculation, exemption certificates, and returns filing can run inside your Dynamics environment without changing how your team enters orders.

Western Computer has spent nearly 40 years and more than 1,750 implementations working inside Microsoft Dynamics for distributors and manufacturers. Avalara handles cloud tax compliance for companies of every size. This session is educational, not a product pitch.

What You'll Learn

  • How economic nexus and multi-state sales quietly create filing obligations, and how to figure out where your company may already have them
  • What manual rate tables, spreadsheet certificate tracking, and month-end tax reconciliation are costing you in errors, hours, and audit exposure
  • How automated calculation, exemption certificate management, and returns filing work inside Business Central, Finance & Supply Chain Management, NAV, and GP
  • Practices that keep tax operations stable as you add states, product lines, or move to a new ERP
