Avalara: Exempting Wholesale or Tax-Exempt Members from Tax Calculations

In the vinSUITE admin: Navigate to the member's profile and select the Address Book tab. Click Edit on the General Contact Info section. Scroll down to the Entity Code field and select the appropriate code from the dropdown.

In the eWinery admin: Navigate to the member's profile. In the Primary Billing Address section, select the appropriate Entity Code from the dropdown.
