A tax feature adds a tax charge to the billed amount. Zenskar supports two modes: a manual rate you define, and automated calculation via Avalara.

Where taxes can be configured

LevelAvailable
Product pricingYes
Contract phaseYes
A product-level tax applies to that product’s line item only. A phase-level tax applies to the combined total of all product line items in the phase.

Tax types

Manual

You define the tax rate directly. Zenskar calculates the tax amount by applying the percentage to the billed total.
FieldRequiredDescription
TypeYesSet to Manual.
RateYesThe tax percentage to apply (0 to 100).
LabelNoHow the tax appears on the invoice.

Avalara

Zenskar connects to your Avalara account to calculate the tax amount automatically based on the customer’s address, the product tax code, and applicable jurisdiction rules.
FieldRequiredDescription
TypeYesSet to Avalara.
Tax codeYesThe Avalara product tax code for this line item.
LabelNoHow the tax appears on the invoice.
Avalara must be connected in your integrations settings before you can use this tax type. See Avalara AvaTax.

How taxes are applied

Tax is calculated last, after all other features have run (discounts, commitments, service fees). It is applied to the final billed amount before the invoice is issued.
