04/02/2024, 9:04 PMWe have started using Shopify and are planning to have one-time pop-up stores in certain events across the US.
What is the best practice here considering different sales tax rates per state? The events are not typically happening at the same time.
Do we create a generic pop-up store or location in Shopify? Or do we have to create separate locations for each pop-up store?
We have Avalara for tax and Celigo for syncing the sales into NS.

Use the other one to get “ready” for the next pop up (inventory etc). And just use that maybe to push the transactions into NS (Avalara will do the taxes right).
One other question comes up. How do you figure out sales tax that is owed - is that in Avslara or NS?
