Hi All, I wanted to know from where the taxamountoverride field is coming from in netsuite.

<https://help.avalara.com/FYHP/Connector_for_NetSuite/Override_sales_tax_on_a_transaction_in_NetSuite>

Tax amount field is linked to tax rate field. NetSuite calculates tax amount based on tax rate assigned to particular tax code.

The field i was suspecting is Tax Credit that Avalara added to Cash Refunds/Credit Memo's. It does nothing but displays on the screen from what we gather.  Tax Override is used when a different tax code than AVATAX is used, which then would use the native NetSuite tax code to calculate that amount. It might be added by the AvaTax bundle.
