For example, in the US tax engine, there is a Tax Override checkbox that can prevent NetSuite from recalculating the tax. However, this feature may not be available in all countries or for all tax groups. If you are using Avalara Integration, you can override the tax total in the Invoice record via a User Event (UE) script. However, this requires heavy scripting to work correctly. You can use the
taxamountoverride
field to set the tax total to the value you want. Here is a sample code snippet:
javascript
currentRecord.setValue('taxamountoverride', taxTotal)
Please note that this method might not work for transactions that have already charged tax. Avalara "remembers" the tax and it won't override the tax if you need to, so you'll need to script it.
Also, keep in mind that if you are using Avalara, you might need to disable it at the configuration level and then in the script, mark Tax Code as AvaTax per line. This is because the tax calculations are done in Avalara from a different system.
Remember to always test your scripts in a sandbox environment before deploying them to production to avoid any unexpected issues.Celigo AI
