General

This is the first tab of the custom shipping type add or edit form.

  • ID – read-only unique internal system ID of the shipping type.
  • Code –
  • Name
  • Speed Code
  • Enabled – this checkbox enables and disables the shipping type.
  • Shipping Type – this radio button specifies the base amount on which the shipping cost is calculated.
    • “By weight” means that the shipping cost brackets will be based on the total product weight. The weight (from the weight field) from each order item will be added up, and the cost will be looked up in the cost table by zone and bracket, into which the total weight falls.
    • “By item” means that the shipping cost brackets will be based on the number of items in the order. The number of order items will be added up, and the cost will be looked up in the cost table by zone and bracket, into which this number falls.
    • “By amount” means that the shipping cost brackets will be based on the total order amount. The cost will be looked up in the cost table by zone and bracket, into which the order amount falls.
    • “Handling” means that this type of shipping does not depend on zones or brackets, and the charge is the same for all orders – base fee (see below). This is usually used for customer pickups, electronic downloads, etc – where a handling or packaging fee should be added to the order, but it does not depend on the products in the order or on the destination.
  • Base Fee – this amount is added on top of the shipping cost looked up in the cost table. It is usually used for handling or packaging surcharge.
