Tax charges

When Order Verification functionality is enabled, calculations for tax and shipping charges are executed by the M3 BE. The results are acquired through API and reflected in Infor e-Commerce. See the Infor e-Commerce M3 Connector’s Guide for more details.

Otherwise, Infor e-Commerce locally computes the VAT (sales tax) due for each item based on the delivery address, item tax class and customer tax status which are replicated from M3 BE. The order form shows the total tax due and includes this value when the total order price is computed. The following sections describe how Infor e-Commerce does the computation locally.
