- Integrate a partner tax app, such as [Vertex](https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N3A00000EtEHwUAN) or [Avalara](https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N4V00000GuZjzUAF), or your own tax engine, with the Billing [TaxEngineAdapter Apex interface](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.revenue_lifecycle_management_dev_guide.meta/revenue_lifecycle_management_dev_guide/billing_tax_engine_adapter_interface_for_standard_tax.htm).
- Calculate simple taxes in Billing with the [Revenue Standard Tax Engine](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.billing_standard_tax_rate.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Organizations often face challenges when managing taxes. Common issues include dependency on external tax vendors for simple scenarios, extra licensing and per-transaction costs, performance overhead from external API calls, and regulatory or data residency constraints. These challenges make tax management more complex and costly than necessary. The revenue standard tax engine addresses these issues by enabling internal tax calculation and storage for predictable tax structures. By handling simple tax scenarios internally, organizations can streamline their Revenue Management processes."), without an external integration.
