17/06/2026 –Rates – New auto-rating method, Customs Value Breaks

In this release, we added a new auto-rating method ‘Customs Value Breaks’.

This new method is available on all tabs except for the Air Freight tab, on all the auto-rating screens:

– Company Tariff Rates
– Customer Rates
– Cost Tariff
– Global Update – Company Tariff Rates
– Global Update – Customer Rates
– Global Update – Cost Tariff
– Customer Quotes

  1. The method compares the customs value of the job, against the breaks set up and applies a flat amount.

    The customs value is validated against the following fields:
    AU Sites

    1. CVAL field on the Customs Processing -> Import Declaration Nature 10/20
    2. Total FOB on Forwarding -> Export Air -> Export Declaration
    3. Total FOB on Forwarding -> Export Sea -> Export Declaration
  2. NZ Sites
    1. Customs Processing -> Import Declaration -> Declaration Lines tab
      1. Total of Customs Value ($NZ) column
    2. Forwarding -> Export Air -> Export Declaration -> Declaration Lines tab
      1. Total of the Customs Value ($NZ) column
    3. Forwarding -> Export Sea -> Export Declaration -> Declaration Lines tab
      1. Total of the Customs Value ($NZ) column

E.g.

If I am on an AU Site, and my import declaration has a CVAL of $3000.00

And my breaks are set up as per the below:

When I auto-rate, I will pull through $200.00, as this was my break if the customs value was greater than or equal to $3000.00
