Select the order in which shipping options should be displayed within each shipping service. Use the Shipping Service Display Order (below) to set the order the services will appear in.

Select whether you want the first listed shipping option to be selected by default when the Shipping page loads..

Select Services in this order:, then use the Move Up or Move Down buttons to arrange selected services in the desired order. If you want to emphasize one shipping service, you may want to have it displayed first. If you want to display all shipping methods from all services sorted by cost, choose All service options together.

Enter the dimensions of your standard shipping boxes in the format LxWxH (Length by Width by Height). When you are adding a product or editing product info, you will be able to select from these box sizes in a pull down menu. You can add an optional text description for each box by typing a semicolon between the dimensions and the description. You can list the dimensions or the description first, like this:

24x24x24; Big Square Box

or

Big Square Box; 24x24x24

Only the dimensions will be sent to UPS or the Custom Shipping Add-On.

Use these fields to create a formula for calculating handling charges. You can define a simple formula, or one based on other costs in the order.

• Base - Enter an optional base handling charge for each order. You can enter just a Base charge, just a Plus charge, or a combination of the two. Any Base charge will be added to all orders, regardless of the number of products or the amount of the order, etc.
• Plus/Times - Select a criteria for calculating handling charges - in addition to any Base charge that you defined - and then select a multiplication factor. Here are some example:
  • None - only the Base charge will be added to orders.
  • Subtotal - The handling charge will be calculated as a percentage of the product subtotal, in addition to any Base charge. For example, if you select Subtotal times .05, the handling charge will be 5% of the product subtotal.
  • Total Number of Products - The handling charge will be calculated based on the number of products in an order, in addition to any Base charge. For example, if you select Total Number of Products times 1.25, the handling charge will be $1.25 for each product ordered.
  • Weight - The handling charge will be calculated as a percentage of the total weight of the order, in addition to any Base charge. For example, if you select Weight times .5, the handling charge will be $0.50 per pound.
  • Shipping - The handling charge will be calculated as a percentage of the shipping charge, in addition to any Base charge. For example, if you select Shipping times .1, the handling charge will be 10% of the shipping charge.

Enter an optional maximum handling charge for each order. If the calculated handling charges exceed this amount, ShopSite will charge the maximum instead of the calculated amount. Note that the calculated amount includes the per order charge defined here and any Extra Handling Charges defined for individual products.

Enter an optional value at which ShopSite will not add a handling charge to an order. Leave this field blank to add a handling charge based on the Handling Charge Formula, regardless of the order subtotal.

Choose whether to use the Product Total (the combined product cost before coupons or volume discounts are calculated) or the Subtotal (after discounts, but before tax and handling charges are applied) to determine the minimum cart subtotal to qualify for free shipping. If the selected total meets the minimum value, the free shipping option will be selected automatically, though the customer will still have the option to select a different shipping method.

Enter the text that you want displayed in the shopping cart for the free shipping option.

Click Configure to select which countries will have Free Shipping enabled. This will take you to the Commerce Setup > States and Countries screen, where you can check the Free Ship checkbox for any countries to which free shipping will be allowed. You can use the Exclude ZIP Postal Codes option below to restrict free shipping within allowed countries. This field is used for Free Shipping Coupons, even if you have not enabled free shipping.

Enter the ZIP or Postal Codes for regions in allowed countries you want excluded from free shipping. For example, a merchant offering free shipping in the contiguous 48 U.S. states would enter the ZIP codes for Alaska and Hawaii to exclude those states. This field is used by Free Shipping Coupons, even if you have not enabled free shipping.
