Tax rule zip postal codes

I'm trying to specify that all New York zips get charged a flat 8.38% sales tax. The zip code range instructions in the web interface didn't work as stated. I tried 10001:14925 and 10001-14925.
So I am trying to upload the entire list of 2000+ zip codes to the TaxRules table via AC7 Data Port, and the list gets truncated.

Is there a range format that works? If so, what would the XML code look like to specify a range of codes from 10001 to 14925?
<PostalCodeFilter>10001,10002,11949,11950</PostalCodeFilter>

Who out there is based in NY and has dealt with this problem?

Should I just set up a tax certification service? If so, how do I do that?

Thanks!

Able uses wild cards for matching, not numeric ranges, so:

Code: Select all

10*,11*,12*,13*,140*,141*,142*,143*,144*,145*,146*,147*,148*,1490*,1491*,14920,14921,14922,14923,14924,14925
defines all codes between 10001 and 14925.
