# Display and store the AP status code in responses

**Element type:** Suggested

**Endpoints/models used**: N/A

Your integration should display and store the `apStatusCode` returned by the AvaTax engine in the ERP transaction record. This code helps determine the actions to take when calculating consumer use tax transactions. This requirement is handled through your back end and not directly via an AvaTax API call. More information about AP statuses and AP status codes is available in the earlier [AP statuses and recommended actions](https://developer.avalara.com/avatax-for-ap/design-the-document-workflow/ap-statuses-and-actions) topic.

**View example**:

```
{
  ..,
    "apStatusCode": "NoAccrualExemptedVendor",
    "apStatus": "Ignored - This vendor is always exempted"
}
```
