The certification for goods calculations enables connectors to properly return tax results from Avalara solutions and allows users an easy implementation process.

Below are the minimum scenarios necessary to achieve certification.

  • The partner will be responsible for support customers in production and give the maintenance of the developed connector.
  • The partner will be responsible for providing training and a guide to support customers.
  • To present an SLA (Service Level Agreement) plan.
  • Present a schedule detailing development times, unit tests, and integration tests.

In this case, the user can enable or disable the AvaTax BR service at any time. The flag will indicate that the service is operational.

Mandatory

Comprehensive Logging

Given that all transactions are based on request/response JSON, the connector should provide logs of these transactions for troubleshooting, if necessary. Partners can define the time necessary to keep those data on the system.

Mandatory

Set the timeout to API calls

Set a timeout to API call, as recommended by best practices.

Mandatory

Security Communication Protocol – HTTPS/SLL

The platform (ERP´s, middleware’s, e-commerce, etc.) that will be the API calls should be prepared to support TLS 1.2.
