How Vertexis Nexus applies this
- 01
Mapped per product
Vertexis Nexus classifies each product against the state's definition rather than a single national category.
- 02
Applied at checkout and on the return
The same rule drives the rate you charge and the line on your filed return, so they never disagree.
- 03
Reviewed against state bulletins
Rules are re-verified against state Department of Revenue bulletins each quarter.
