Avalara has launched an online resource for companies, and also announced that manufacturing and warehouse management solution Fishbowl will join its community as a certified solution partner.
The small business community center is an online location where companies can look up tax rates, learn more about where sales tax need to be collected and remitted, download white papers, register for free webinars, browse a directory of accounting firms, test drive Avalara’s solutions TrustFile and AvaTax, and discover connector integrations with e-commerce, mobile commerce, accounting and invoicing applications.
Fishbowl is a QuickBooks and Xero solution that also provides a standalone capability for tracking assets. Avalara’s solution partners are software publishers that integrate Avalara’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering for sales tax management directly into their own applications.
“Avalara’s leading tax compliance solution is a natural fit for Fishbowl,” said David Williams, CEO of Fishbowl, in a statement. “Fishbowl helps manufacturers, wholesale distributors and ecommerce businesses selling to customers across the U.S. and beyond. It’s essential they include the correct sales-tax figures to their sales orders; Avalara does that, and more. We’re excited to partner with Avalara to help our customers automate sales-tax calculations and simplify that complex side of doing business.”
“Fishbowl is the No. 1 requested manufacturing and warehouse management solution for QuickBooks, so integrating with them is a big win for our mutual customers,” said Marshal Kushniruk, executive vice president of product and business development at Avalara.
