• Transaction payloads are created from Salesforce objects (accounts, ship-to addresses, line items, discounts, shipping, and timestamps) and sent to SpeedTax tax calculation APIs.
• Jurisdiction data is derived from normalized address fields, with validation and fallback handling for missing or non-standard values before tax determination is requested.
• SpeedTax response fields (tax amount, rate, jurisdiction codes, and exemption decisions when provided) are mapped back to Salesforce order, invoice, and credit memo records.
• Document lifecycle events in Salesforce (quote to order, capture, invoice, return) trigger create, commit, adjust, or void calls where supported by the SpeedTax configuration.
• Delta sync logic sends only changed headers or line items, while idempotency keys prevent duplicate tax documents on retries or delayed events.
• API calls and responses are logged with correlation IDs, and error states are stored on the originating Salesforce record for traceability and reprocessing.
