Rillet and Numeral work together to make sales tax compliance fully automated. Once you connect Numeral to Rillet, sales tax is calculated on your invoices in real time, transactions sync to Numeral automatically, and you can pull sales tax reporting from either platform. What you’ll set up in this guide:
  • Connect your Numeral and Rillet accounts with an API key
  • Configure a webhook so Rillet sends invoice and payment events to Numeral
  • Confirm that sales tax is calculating and syncing automatically
  • Find your sales tax reporting in both Numeral and Rillet
Before you begin, make sure you have a Numeral account and a Rillet account with permission to generate API keys and create webhooks.

Step 1 — Connect Numeral to Rillet

  1. In Numeral, open Connections and select Rillet.
  2. Give your connection a name (for example, name it after your Rillet sandbox or environment).
  3. In Rillet, generate a new API key and give it a name.
  4. Copy the API key and paste it into Numeral.
  5. Click Connect.

Step 2 — Set up the Numeral webhook

The webhook lets Rillet notify Numeral whenever an invoice or payment changes, so your tax data always stays in sync.
  1. In Numeral, click Copy Numeral webhook URL.
  2. In Rillet, open the Create webhook page.
  3. Name the webhook and paste in the Numeral webhook URL.
  4. Select the events to send for invoices: Created, Updated, Deleted, and Payment Updated.
  5. If there are other entities that you would also like Numeral to manage (like Credit Memos), add that entity, and add all four of the events as with invoices.
  6. Click Create.
  7. Open the webhook you just created and copy its signing token.
  8. Back in Numeral, paste the signing token and click Continue.
Rillet is now connected to Numeral. Webhook configuration

Step 3 — Automate sales tax on your invoices

  1. In Rillet, create a new invoice.
  2. Select your customer and your product, then click Save.
  3. Open the invoice — Numeral has automatically calculated and added the sales tax.
  4. When the invoice is marked Paid (amount due $0.00), the transaction is finalized and ready to sync.

Step 4 — View transactions in Numeral

  1. In Numeral, open Transactions.
  2. Your Rillet transaction appears automatically — no manual upload required.
  3. Numeral tracks your total transactions, gross sales, net sales, tax collected, and total sales, which form the basis for your automated sales tax filing.
