The Tax Management API provides the ability to query CostGuard to determine the applicable taxes for features in the CostGuard product catalog. This REST API can be useful for activities such as generating estimated tax amounts for quoting purposes.
Utilizing the Tax API requires sending the Product Catalog SKUs for the account or service level charges you want to calculate taxes on. Along with the SKUs you must also send the corresponding address information so that CostGuard can determine the proper tax jurisdictions. Additionally, tax exempt flags, extended exemptions and per-line tax configuration can be provided in the API request, when applicable, to allow for proper assessment of taxes.
In response the Tax API will return each applicable tax and the tax amount for the account-level charges and for each service.

The Tax Management API is an optional service provided by IDI Billing Solution which is available on a subscription basis. If you have questions regarding enabling this service for your environment, please contact your Account Manager.
