Tax Code Import
Overview
The Tax Code Import process reads files from the ./Incoming/TaxCodes/ from
SFTP.
These files are moved to the archive folder located at ./Archive/Incoming/TaxCodes/ before being processed in alphanumeric order.
You can also load tax codes and rates using the UI CSV file loader on your instance at
./tax_codes.
The Code column is the key column, and must be unique.
Note: Compliance users must also specify standard fields. For example,
if specifying Tax Rate Percentage, you still have to specify the same
value in Percentage.Tax Code
