With new current software we use is there a good video on how to setup sales tax for clients. Washington state tax rate changes for every city and county.

Hi @thompsons98
As long as you have accurate address information for the client record, the app will retrieve the exact tax for that location from a 3rd party API service that we use.
We have a guide on this here:
Let us know if you have any questions!
I do have the correct address. My software looks different then what you are showing.
Send an email to [email protected] and we’ll check your configuration.
@thompsons98 did you figure this out? I am also in Washington State, and am struggling to understand how the city level tax can be calculated and added automatically - though I suspect alot has changed since you asked this question.
The tax settings UI allows me to select “Calculate Taxes Automatically” and then choose Washington state as my vendor location and Washington state as the location where people should be taxed. But I do not have an option to choose cities. Does it calculate on the city level automatically? If so, that is pretty cool!
Unfortunately when turn all this on and then create an invoice, the tax is not showing up even though it seems it should be.
Is this something that only works on hosted invoiceninja or does it work for self-hosted sites like mine, with pro licenses? How does this automatic calculation even work?
