NAME
WebService::Avalara::AvaTax - Avalara SOAP interface as compiled Perl methods
VERSION
version 0.004
SYNOPSIS
use WebService::Avalara::AvaTax;
my $avatax = WebService::Avalara::AvaTax->new(
username => 'avalara@example.com',
password => 'sekrit',
);
my $answer_ref = $avatax->ping;DESCRIPTION
This class provides a Perl method API for Avalara AvaTax web services. The first call to any AvaTax SOAP operation uses XML::Compile::WSDL11 to compile and execute against the specified Avalara AvaTax service; subsequent calls can vary the parameters but will use the same compiled code.
METHODS
Available method names are dynamically loaded from the AvaTax WSDL file's operations, and can be passed either a hash or reference to a hash with the necessary parameters. In scalar context they return a reference to a hash containing the results of the SOAP call; in list context they return the results hashref and an XML::Compile::SOAP::Trace object suitable for debugging and exception handling.
As of this writing the following operations are published in the Avalara AvaTax schema. Consult Avalara's developer site for full documentation on input and output parameters for each operation.
If there is no result then an exception will be thrown.

);OTHER METHODS AND ATTRIBUTES
Because this class consumes the WebService::Avalara::AvaTax::Role::Connection role, it also has that role's attributes and methods. Please consult that module for attributes important for establishing a connection such as username and password. You can also use other attributes, such as the user_agent attribute to access the LWP::UserAgent used to retrieve and call the AvaTax service, or the wsdl method to access the underlying XML::Compile::WSDL11 object.
