Tax Calculation for transactions in Dynamics CRM using tax information stored in QuickBooks

By | February 10, 2014

Though Dynamics CRM allows for creating Quotes, Orders and Invoices from within CRM it does not provide a true accounting solution that would automatically calculate the tax as well on the transaction. It provides a tax field on the transaction forms but the value has to be manually entered by the users. For organizations that choose to use CRM for initial order entry for their sales rep, it might help to be able to automatically calculate the tax on the transaction as well.
