Summary
Often stores find it a hassle to calculate the exact tax amount based on the customer's location on the tax invoice and then submit the final sum for processing to the tax department. Since the taxes vary across institutions, states, cities and down to your respective county, which makes the need to determine the precise amount extremely important.
However, by default, any Volusion store only allows single tax (Common tax) and state wise tax calculation. Virtina’s Taxility Plugin comes into play to help neutralize this problem. File all your tax returns in multiple jurisdictions seamlessly, within a matter of time.
Challenges
The biggest hurdle that online stores face is calculating the tax as per the customer's location, due to the plethora of taxes that exist and the inability of the default Volusion model to determine the exact tax applicable and what is then to be remitted back to the corresponding state. Virtina had to come with something that makes it easier to comprehensively estimate the correct tax, apply the same at the time of order processing and forward the final amount to the tax department.
The absence of the same results in excessive taxes getting calculated, which then results in loses for the business and on top that a painstaking waste of time and effort which tempts the client to migrate to another platform for better convenience in submitting taxes at the year-end.
Solution
Taxility, an extension created by the brilliant minds at Virtina acts as a middle-ware that bridges the gap with ease. Think about how many labor-hours that is costing you each term throughout the year to arrive at the correct taxation value or risk losing additional amounts if the business was unable to do so.
