ECommerce-Shipping

If shipping amounts are necessary, a Shipping Rate Computation Method must be selected and configured.

Available Shipping Rate Computation methods

Fixed rate shipping – simple, flat-rate shipping with options to increase shipping on specific items as needed

Shipping by weight – requires product weight to be entered for each product and broad formulas created to calculate price based on weight

Various carriers provide their own – requires a shipper account and a website URL with appropriate login credentials with one of the major carriers (UPS, USPS, FedEx, Australia Post or Canada Post)

The default shipping method is Fixed Rate Shipping with average prices set as the default rate. You may check and change these as needed.
