Overview

Shopify Tax Matching is a preview feature for Business Central US. It reads tax information on Shopify orders and suggests Tax Jurisdictions, using tax line titles, rates and limited location data. This helps build the structured tax setup that Business Central needs.

The section has two pages. The application card describes what the feature does: validated suggestions, tax setup assistance, rate-conflict detection, and review and approval with configurable human review. The setup page covers the practical steps: enabling and configuring tax matching for each Shopify shop, reviewing suggestions, approving matches and managing rate conflicts.

Start with the application card to understand the scope and the role of human review. Then use the setup page to configure a shop.
