Zamp for NetSuite: Mapping Customers
Overview
Zamp will determine whether or not we should be calculating tax for a given customer based on a Tax Item field on your customer records. This is ultimately your choice! Transactions will still post to Zamp regardless for reporting, but another tax calculation source can be used.
Learn how to map your customers to use Zamp calculations, and mapping exemption codes.

Zamp Tax Code selected as the Tax Item determines if Sales Taxes calculated for a transaction created for this customer using Zamp. This overrides any other tax settings on the customer record such as the "Taxable" checkbox. If you intend to use Zamp for tax calculations, you must adhere to these settings.
