Symptom
You activated the Avalara standard integration and configured the Communication System and Communication Arrangement.
When creating a Sales Document such as a Sales Order the Tax Code is not determined and you get no response from Avalara.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
Cause
You are using the new REST API.
Avalara has provided two APIs for tax determination.
Business ByDesign uses the old REST API https://developer.avalara.com/api-reference/avatax/rest/v1/methods/getTax/.
The usage of new REST API https://developer.avalara.com/api-reference/avatax/rest/v2/methods/Transactions/CreateTransaction/ is not supported as of now.
Resolution
You need to identify a mechanism of using the legacy API https://developer.avalara.com/api-reference/avatax/rest/v1/methods/getTax/ with Avalara.

Please Note:
The blog reffers to the setup in test or development systems and therefore uses the hostname "development.avalara.net" since this should be used for test and development systems.
For productive systems please use the hostname "avatax.avalara.net".
