Hey Virginia users!

I created a show both on the mobile app and new beta to train myself. Food tax was incorrect. Since we cannot override it ourselves, I emailed the Solution Center. They created a ticket for their third party to correct this. It may take up to 30 days. They advised to use P3 until it is fixed. Please share with your team!

For other states, please make sure yours is correct to :D
 
Thanks for letting us know. I'm content to chill until the kinks are worked out.
 
Dang! I literally JUST got off the phone with HO less than 5 minutes ago regarding this food tax issue (TN here).
