We just received the following notice from Costco regarding changes to their EDI codes for tax qualifiers. Despite the August 24th implementation date, we have  already updated the maps on ePortal to comply with the changes. This means that all ePortal users doing business with Costco will be able to continue business as usual during the changes.

Effective August 24, 2010

Costco is changing their EDI TXI tax qualifiers effective August 24, 2010.

Please see below for new EDI codes.

GST  =           CG  (for GST Tax only)

HST  =           GS  (for HST Tax only)

QST  =           ST  (for QST Tax only)

Thank You
