Business privilege and mercantile tax (BPM) is a tax assessed on the gross receipts of specific types of businesses, commonly retailers and wholesalers. Originating from the Pennsylvania Local Tax Enabling Act of 1965, this tax serves as compensation for businesses availing local governmental services, such as public safety measures.
BPM has undergone multiple changes since 1965. By 1988, the Pennsylvania Local Tax Reform Commission labeled it as a “nuisance tax,” primarily due to inadequacies in the legislative framework and vagueness surrounding the tax base. Still, jurisdictions that had existing BPM were allowed to continue its imposition.

In the early days of building an HR process and team, leaders lean heavily on their core HRIS. It’s the system of record, the workflow engine, and often the de facto compliance tool. But as teams grow, especially across state lines, cracks begin to form in that HRIS compliance structure.
Simply put, the traditional HRIS wasn’t built to manage the full weight of multi-state compliance. And for teams moving off of PEOs, the complexity becomes even more pronounced. That’s why evaluating your HRIS early, and understanding where it supports compliance versus where it falls short, is critical to scaling smoothly.
