The Tax Area Code defines the location where the tax applies. Each tax area groups sales tax jurisdictions based on a specific geographic location. You must assign tax jurisdictions to the specific store locations.
For example, in the United States, each state has its own sales tax rate, and some cities and counties may impose additional sales taxes.
