Overview

Blackpurl includes Stamp Duty configuration under System Settings > Settings & Controls for Australian dealerships. This feature lets you set up the Stamp Duty rates that apply to your state and automatically applies them to Unit Deals when processing a Customer Order.

Setting Up Stamp Duty Rates

Before Stamp Duty can be applied to Unit Deals, you need to configure which rates are active at your dealership and which rate is set as the default.

Stamp Duty Table Fields

Each row in the Stamp Duty table contains the following columns.

Name	The name of the Stamp Duty rate, using the convention of state followed by the rate name — for example, NT - All dutiable units.
Calc Method	How the Stamp Duty is calculated — for example, Single rate, Tiered, or Escalating rate.
Rates	The current rate for each listed Stamp Duty entry.
Per	The basis for the rate calculation, expressed as a per-dollar value.
Minimum	The minimum Stamp Duty amount, if one applies.
Maximum	The maximum Stamp Duty amount, if one applies.
Default	Indicates which Stamp Duty rate is the default. Only one rate can be set as default at a time, shown by a toggle.
Active	Indicates which Stamp Duty rates are enabled and available in your Blackpurl.

Managing Stamp Duty Rates

Use the action icons on each Stamp Duty rate row to edit or delete an existing rate. Take care when editing or deleting rates — changes affect how Stamp Duty is calculated on Unit Deals.

To add a new Stamp Duty rate, click Add Stamp Duty Rates and complete the pop-up form.
To apply the default Stamp Duty rate to all stocked units, click Apply default to stock units. A confirmation message appears when this is complete. Each stocked unit will then carry the default Stamp Duty rate.

Once your Stamp Duty rates are configured, the setup is complete and rates will be applied automatically to Unit Deals.

How Stamp Duty Appears on a Unit Deal

When processing a Customer Order Unit Deal, Stamp Duty is automatically calculated under the Pricing section based on your configured settings. The following fields appear in that section.

Deal Value	The value of the Unit Deal for this unit.
Dutiable Value	Applies in states where Stamp Duty must be charged on the full retail price or recommended retail price of the unit, rather than the lesser deal value. This field only appears when relevant.
Calculator	Shows which Stamp Duty rate was used for the calculation. If the wrong rate has been applied, use the dropdown to select the correct rate — the default rate from your settings is selected automatically.
Amount Charged	The calculated Stamp Duty dollar value. You can override this amount manually if required.
