Avalara unveils updated connector for Salesforce Revenue Cloud

Avalara has announced the release of its updated connector for Salesforce's Revenue Cloud, now accessible on the Salesforce AppExchange.

Avalara's updated connector provides several benefits for partners and customers utilising Salesforce's Revenue Cloud. It aims to simplify tax compliance across CPQ, Billing, and Subscription Management within Revenue Cloud by offering automated field mappings from Salesforce to Avalara. Through these enhancements, customers can achieve faster tax calculations, potentially within hours rather than weeks or months. The connector also includes features for managing tax policies, multi-company mappings, and specific tax codes.

"Our ongoing collaboration with Salesforce has been instrumental in delivering tax compliance solutions that grow alongside our mutual customers' needs," said Meg Higgins, SVP Global Partners, Avalara. "With our shared vision for customer success, we're excited to introduce these latest advancements that further streamline tax compliance, helping businesses stay agile in today's complex regulatory landscape. Our close work with Salesforce enables us to continually evolve our solutions and support the dynamic challenges of our customers."

Recent enhancements in Salesforce's Revenue Cloud facilitate a unified environment that simplifies connectivity between quotes, invoices, and subscriptions without requiring customisations. This advancement allows seamless use of all transaction types for customers and system integration partners, thus improving sales workflow efficiency.

"Avalara's integration aligns with our vision of streamlining revenue management for our customers," said Meredith Schmidt, EVP and GM of Revenue Cloud at Salesforce. "With automated tax compliance integrated directly into the Revenue Cloud experience, businesses can devote more resources to innovation and delivering exceptional value to their clients."
