Step 6: Import ECCN codes, tax groups, and tax types

Learn how to import ECCN codes, tax groups, and tax types.

You must upload the ECCN codes, tax groups, and tax types and assign them to CC Products in Salesforce before you do the Product Sync.

Note that the ECCN codes, tax groups, and tax types provided in these files do not represent a complete list. However, it's enough to get you started.

Download the Approved-ECCN-Codes.csv file and the TaxGroup_TaxTypes.csv file and save them to your computer.

The UploadECCN_Script and UploadTaxGroup_Script contain dummy values. You can use the test values or populate them with real values for testing purposes. These files are not used in production. You can use these scripts to test a specific scenario where you need to figure out the tax group, tax type, and ECCN code for a specific product.

Download the following ZIP files, extract the UploadECCN_Script and UploadTaxGroup_Script files, and save them to your computer.

These scripts auto-populate the ECCN and tax group for your products. This can be helpful for testing purposes rather than having to manually populate them. Be aware that the auto-population may assign tax codes that are not appropriate to a specific product (for example, a digital tax code for a physical product). Do not run in production.
