The accounting issue is just a small part of the problem. Once you collect and forward sales tax to a state, that state will then expect you to report and pay every quarter from then on. They have to streamline the whole process and not put the business on the legal hook, just because they had a sale one quarter to North Dakota. I've done online retailing. All of this is easily automated, including the EFTS.

The automated reporting is not the problem. Getting legally required to report every quarter to every state you ever had a sale in, is the problem. It is absurd. A business should not be legally required to report no sales to a state during a quarter. Yet you are. I know. Three states are after me and they can both go pound sand. Once you pay a state one quarter, they expect that payment every quarter.
