Given Stamp duty is calculated at (please verify if following is correct at time of reading before applying this formula):
Full formula:
case(int(({DutyValue}+99.99)/100),x>450,x*5-900,x*3)
Simplified formula (assumes you never sell bikes above $45k)
int(({DutyValue}+99.99)/100)*3
C9 now provides checklists for workshop jobs.
How they look on job cards and invoices
Creating a new job card
When creating a job card, c9 will automatically import checklist based on job type. Changing job type in modify job will automatically update/ merge in different checklists
Managing checklists
You can also merge in global checklist groups when you create a new job.
Check list management works on job types, new jobs, complete/pickup jobs. Modify jobs and estimates.
You can add additional checklists specific to the job you are working on as well.
Checking and unchecking options
Modify a check list during complete/pickup job/modify job to indicate whether or not the item is good, bad or not applicable. This will print a tick or cross next to the checklist item on the invoice.
If you flag a group option as good or bad, then all sub options under it will default to this value. Saves you having to check everything. On sub options you can check them as well to override. So if all is good except one, flag the parent as good and flag the bad one as not good.
July 1 2014, Stamp duty on units sold increases by $0.40 per $200 dutyable value. To change this formula in c9 you need to goto
The formula previously would be:
roundup({DutyValue},200)/200*if({isNewUnit},5,8)
It now need to be changed to this to add 0.40 for every $200
roundup({DutyValue},200)/200*if({isNewUnit},5.4,8.4)
Be sure to use the test function before saving changes to confirm you got the changes right.
The following post explains how to setup google analytics and webmaster tools on your c9 powered website. It does not provide a tutorial on how to effectively use these products. Only how to get them up and running.
Antivirus is a necessary evil. The problem with antivirus is they are as invasive as the malicious software they are designed to thwart; and occasionally damage your ability to compute.
C9 has always recommended Microsoft Security Essentials because it appears to be the least invasive of the lot in terms of interfering with the operation of c9. But as of Christmas Eve, a number of users of c9 have reported problems with c9 database not working.
We believe the problem is connected to Microsoft Security Essentials and updates Microsoft made to MSSE around about this time. We need to sit tight and wait until either Microsoft of the community behind PostgreSQL fix the issue. In the mean time a couple of workarounds exist.
This solution is simple but must be done every time you reboot.
The problem appears that the database cannot automatically start when computer is rebooted; it needs to wait until MSSE finishes it's startup tasks first and the databases own startup process gives up waiting for this to happen. After the server has started and you have logged into the server and things appear to be stable and idle you can try manually starting the database. There are a few ways to do this. Here are two:
Method 1
Open Computer/My Computer and navigate to local disk C: and then the following folders:
Double click on entry that says start ( or start.vbs). You will see following:
Upon clicking, keep clicking the buttons. Sequence should be something like this:
Method 2
Right click on the link below and click "Save Link As..." (or similar) and save it to your desktop. Unzip it. Now click on new item on your desktop. Screen with flash black. Database should be running.

This workaround is harder but permanent so only needs to be done once.
Click/Right click on Microsoft security essentials in bottom right in system tray and click on Open
Click Settings, then click Excluded Processes, then click Browse.
Now navigate to the following file:
Click OK
Then click Add to copy the selected file to the exception list.
Now click on save changes to apply the exception. From now on system should boot and start the database automatically.
Trying to get your website to appear near the top of a Google or Bing search is both a black art and to a small extent a zero-sum game, because only 10 websites can occupy the top 10 search results. You are competing with all other relevant websites who are also trying to lift their search profile.
C9 powered websites now include a number of features to help SEO savvy web designers optimize your site. The following describes these and how to access them.
Inventory checking for Yamaha is now possible. The process of configuring it although is slightly complex.
The complexity arises because Yamaha require something known as a 'client side certificate' in order to access their site. C9 can handle this no worries, the only additional complexity from c9's point of view is you need to give c9 a Certificate file and the password for that file.
The real complexity although is getting the certificate file in the first place.
If Yamaha have provided it in an email, you can try and just add it into c9 as is and you might get lucky.
Otherwise you need to extract the certificate out of Internet Explorer. This process is complex. Read on for more details.
Unit Deals is a piece of functionality added in version 4.314 of c9 that allows you to build up a unit sale over a period of time, as a purchase order.
The intent of deals is to simplify the process of managing unit sales, purchases and tradeins by making the process more intuitive and more forgiving. Prior process for selling a unit in c9 required keying in all data in one sitting. Unit sales can be complicated animals, and expecting a user to key in everything correctly on the spot is something of a task.
C9's import of KTM catalogs imports information from KTM's dealernet website. The website although contains all KTM's manufactured world wide, not just Australian models. So c9 tries to be 'smart' and only import Australian models. The logic though does not correctly import all models although.
For example, SX-F models and EXC. In Australia, I believe that SX-F used in Australia are the US models and EXC are European. C9 by default skips these thinking they are overseas models.
Following describes how to do work around this.
C9 now permits integration into bikesales.com.au.
When the integration is in place, any units you nominate on your floor stock will be synchronized to bikesales. If you sell or otherwise remove the units from the floor, the listing will be removed off bikesales.
Synchronization happens each night. Listing changes should propagate shortly after 5 am. C9 will send you an email overnight advising you on synchronization status.
