# Managing Your Tax Thresholds

## Introduction

This guide will walk you through the process of viewing and managing your tax thresholds for different states. You will learn how to access and navigate the Thresholds dashboard, filter and review state listings, view detailed threshold information for each state, and understand the various statuses and options available, including tax collection and filing services.

## Using the Thresholds Dashboard

1. Access Thresholds in either of these ways:
   * From the main **Dashboard/Home**, scroll down to the **Thresholds** section (or use the **Thresholds** link in the left-hand navigation).
   * From any page, click **Thresholds** in the left-hand navigation menu.
2. You will be taken to the **Thresholds** page, where you can see a list of all locations (states). For each location, you can view:
   * **Location** – The state or jurisdiction being tracked.
   * **Tax Collection** status – Indicates whether you are currently collecting tax in that state.
   * **Threshold / Threshold Status** – Shows your sales and/or order progress toward the state's economic nexus limit and whether you are approaching or have reached exposure.
     * **At Threshold**: you’ve met the criteria for that state.
     * **Approaching Threshold**: you’re close to meeting the criteria.
     * **Under Threshold**: you’re currently below the criteria.
   * **Current Progress** for sales and orders, including progress bars showing how close you are to meeting the economic nexus threshold. Progress is typically shown as a percentage and as a value (for example, total sales amount or number of orders).
3. Thresholds are recalculated daily at **1:00 AM CST**.
4. At the top of the page, the **Action Needed** section highlights states where you have tax exposure or are approaching it.
5. Below the **Action Needed** section, you can view a list of all locations and their current threshold status (for example, **Collecting**, **Tax Exposed**, **Not Collecting**).
6. You can filter this list by **SST Filter**, **Filing Type**, and **Collecting Status** using the dropdown menus.
7. By default, the list may be filtered to show only states where you are currently collecting or tracking. Use the **Show My States Only** checkbox/switch (right side above the state list) to toggle between:
   * **All states** (deselect **Show My States Only**), and
   * Only the states you are registered/collecting in (re-select **Show My States Only**).
8. To filter the list by collection status, use the **Collecting Status** dropdown to view states where you are **Collecting** or **Not Collecting**.
9. To clear any active filters and return to the default view, click the **Reset** button.
10. To browse through all the states, use the pagination controls at the bottom of the page.
11. For any state, you can click the three-dot menu on the right side of the row to access options such as **View Details,** **Edit State License, or Request Filing Taxes**.

12. To view more details for a specific state, click on that state's row in the list (or select **View Details** from the three-dot menu). This will open the **Threshold Details** page for that location.
13. On the **Threshold Details** page, you can review several key sections:
    * **Threshold Info**: A breakdown of the calculation period (for example, previous or current calendar year), along with detailed progress bars for **Sales** and **Orders** for the prior and current year. The calculation period can vary by state, so review the period shown for that jurisdiction.
    * **State Info**: Details such as Threshold Type, nexus type (for example, Physical, Economic), and Tax Collection status.
    * **Tax Collection**: Indicates whether you are currently collecting tax in that state and provides a history of collection status changes. To see a full history of changes to tax collection, click the **Show All** button in the **Collection Status** section.
    * **Tax Filing**: Shows the current status of tax filing, including filing responsibility and frequency, and allows you to enable or manage filing services.

## Enabling Tax Filing Services

14. To enable automated tax filing for a state where tax collection is already active:

    1. On the **Threshold Details** page for that state, scroll down to the **Tax Filing** section.
    2. Click the **Enable Tax Filing** button.
    3. Review the dialog that appears with details about features, pricing, and next steps for the tax filing service.
    4. Click **Add Tax Filing** to activate automated filing for that jurisdiction.

## Editing State License Information

15. If you need to update your license information for a state, click the **Edit State** icon in the top-right corner of the **Threshold Details** page, or select **Edit State License** from the three-dot menu on the **Thresholds** page.
16. This will take you to the **State License Registration** page where you can update the necessary information and save your changes.

## Summary

The Thresholds dashboard is your central hub for overseeing and managing your sales tax compliance across different states. From this page, you can:

* Filter and review your locations (including toggling **Show My States Only**, filtering by **Collecting Status**, and using **Reset** to clear filters).
* See, at a glance, your collection status and progress toward each state’s economic nexus threshold.
* Enable/disable threshold monitoring for specific states using **Manage Thresholds**.
* Drill down into specific states to see detailed threshold and nexus information.
* Update license details.
* Enable related services such as tax collection and automated filing.

By regularly monitoring this page, you can stay ahead of economic nexus thresholds and maintain compliance with state tax requirements.
