DynamicZip Sales Tax Software

Product Description

DynamicZip Sales Tax Software creates and maintains your tax setup records for USA and Canadian sales and use taxes. DynamicZip also provides automatic entry of city and state based on the ZIP Code, automatic selection of the tax schedule ID based on the ship-to address, as well as a multitude of utilities to facilitate the management of sales and use taxes for Microsoft Dynamics® GP. DynamicZip also provides a variety of detail and summary tax reports extracted from the transaction history retained in Microsoft Dynamics GP Receivables, Payables, RM Invoicing, and Sales Order Processing modules.

Target Customer Profile

Any business using Microsoft Dynamics GP that is burdened with sales tax setup, maintenance, and reporting difficulties.

Other Products Required to Implement DynamicZip

Besides Microsoft Dynamics GP, the ZIPsales™ Database is required as the source of sales and use tax setup data. DynamicZip Sales Tax Software imports the ZIPsales Database into Great Plains; this import process creates and/or updates the Microsoft Dynamics GP tax details and schedules used by DynamicZip.

Kamp-Data is a reseller of CCH products, so you can purchase the ZIPsales Database and other CCH products from us at the same time as your DynamicZip purchase.

Sales tax reports can be generated on the cash or accrual basis.

Summary and detailed reports are available.

Special tax reports (predefined for individual states in build 60 & later) included in DynamicZip Report Wizard to ease the completion of state sales tax returns.

Other range restrictions include Authority, Customer ID, Document Date, Document Number, Tax Detail ID, and Tax Schedule ID.

Tax by Item Class

Some items or services are taxable in certain states and exempt in others. How does DynamicZip handle this situation?

With DynamicZip, you have two options available to deal with this situation. The DynamicZip solution is our Tax by Item Class feature. The Microsoft Dynamics GP solution is Advanced Tax Calculation. You can mix and match these solutions as desired. In other words, you can use Tax by Item Class for some items and Advanced Tax Calculation for others.

ZIP+4 Option (SQL Server installs only)

This optional feature provides integration with the ZIP+4 file available from CCH. It provides positive, automatic identification of counties for all addresses that include the ZIP Code plus 4 extension. (This feature does NOT automatically calculate the correct ZIP+4 for your address record.)

Auto-correct City Spelling (SQL Server installs only)

This feature, if enabled, acts as an auto-correct function for city names based on the ZIP Code selected.

API (Application Programming Interface)

DynamicZip features, including Zip Addressing and Tax Schedule selection are available to integrating 3rd Party Dexterity based products.
