✓ Accepted answer
Not with standard configuration.
The IFS Cloud integration to the external tax solution is not configurable: there are no options to edit or extend the parameters sent to Avalara, so the Customer PO number cannot be added through setup.
Companies that needed extra values have done it through modifications or enhancements.
The IFS employee who answered suggested raising a community idea for a configuration screen that maps IFS attributes to the tax solution's custom attributes. Similar requests he has seen include delivery terms and Project ID.
Status: answer from an IFS employee stating the product limitation; no confirmation from the original poster.
Prerequisites and limitations
Standard integration parameters are fixed; any extra attribute requires a modification or enhancement. Applies to the IFS Cloud Avalara integration as described in the thread; version not stated.
