Integration configuration with Avalara

Migrate from Avalara Connector to Avalara Integration

Learn about transitioning from the legacy Avalara Connector to the real-time Avalara integration, highlighting the benefits and steps involved in the migration process.

Note:

The Avalara Connector is a legacy solution that is not part of the current tax connector apps. Some existing tenants use the Avalara Connector.

This feature is in the Early Availability phase. If you want to have access to the feature, submit a request at Zuora Global Support.

The Avalara Connector calculates tax rates in batches during bill runs and invoice item adjustments, however, this method has a number of limitations. Zuora customers who use the Connector are encouraged to migrate to the real-time Avalara integration.
