Assign a Tax Zone to a Customer

By using the REST API, you can assign a tax zone to a customer.

You will use the PUT HTTP method and the Customer entity of the Default/25.200.001 endpoint. The Customer entity is mapped to the Customers (AR303000) form.

System Preparation

Before you test the code below, you need to do the following to configure your client application and the MYOB Acumatica instance to be used:
  1. Deploy a new MYOB Acumatica instance with the U100 dataset. For details on deploying an instance, see Instance Deployment: To Deploy an Instance with Demo Data.
  2. To sign in to the instance in the client application, use the tenant name (which you specified when you created the instance) and the HEADOFFICE branch.
  3. If you are using Postman as the client application for testing, in the IntegrationDevelopmentGuide.postman_collection.json collection, make sure that the collection’s variables have the proper values. This collection is located in the IntegrationDevelopment\Help folder of the Help-and-Training-Examples repository on GitHub.

Request

Suppose that you need to assign the NYSTATE tax zone to the FRUITICO customer. You use the following example of an HTTP request to do this.

Tip:
In the request example below, <MYOB Acumatica host> is the URL of the MYOB Acumatica host (such as https://my.acumatica.com). You need to use the instance name in the URL of the request (such as https://my.acumatica.com/MyInstance) if the instance is not installed in the root of the website.
PUT /entity/Default/25.200.001/Customer?
    $select=CustomerID,TaxZone / HTTP/1.1
Host: [<Acumatica ERP instance URL>]
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json

{
    "CustomerID": {"value": "FRUITICO"},
    "TaxZone": {"value": "NYSTATE"}
}
