  • Wireless Tax Exemption Maintenance - This accommodates changes in federal and state laws and allow most states and localities to tax all wireless charges invoiced to the customer, regardless of origination, termination, or distance type. Note: Exception rules will need to be applied for those states who choose not to tax all services

    Right-click on a row and select View Wireless Tax Exception. This displays the Wireless Tax Exception form.
