Inventory Product Shipping Charges – Web Client Help Center

Shipping Charges do not show for Standing Order products when the Pricing Method is set to Component Only.

To calculate shipping for inventory products where weight is not an issue, shipping surcharges can be defined and assessed for a line item. Shipping surcharge calculations or shipping charge overrides are defined here for each Ship-Via method. Surcharges defined here will be added to any other shipping charges; overrides will override any other shipping charges.

To access this page, users must have access to the ProductSetup.ShippingCharges security application.

You can assign a specific method to each product for calculation of shipping. This can be done by weight, by percentage of price, by schedule, or by flat rate. If necessary, you can assign an override amount that will explicitly define a shipping price outside of any other calculation.

If no shipping charges are defined on the Product Setup screen, then the default shipping charges that were set up on the Shipping Charges setup page will be applied.

To define a new shipping charge:

From the Shipping Charges page, select +New Shipping Charge.
The Add Shipping Charge page displays.
Select the Ship-Via method from the drop-down.
Select the Calculation Method from the drop-down.
If necessary, enter the Shipping Surcharge or the Shipping Override.
Select the Begin Date from the drop-down.
Select whether the shipment is Domestic or Foreign.
Click Save.

Page Element	Description
Ship-Via	Drop-down. The name of the entity used for shipping the order, e.g., UPS, USPS, FedEx. Values in the drop-down are populated based on the non-fixed codes defined for the ORD "SHIP_VIA" system type.
Calculation Method	Drop-down. How the Ship-Via organization calculates the shipping charge. Options include: By Price – Depends on a record setup on the Shipping Charge Maintenance (ORD009) screen for the country code and ship-via for a current date range. If there is a base amount, add this to the charges and add the percentage by price calculated amount. By Schedule – Depends on a set of records setup on the Shipping Charge Maintenance (ORD009) screen that define a base amount to which a flat amount for a max and min price or a percentage of the price between some max and min is added. The shipping schedule can also be setup for max or min of weight. By Weight – Depends on a set of records setup on the Shipping Charge Maintenance (ORD009) screen where you define a base amount to which some amount per unit weight will be added. Flat Rate – Depends on a record setup on the Shipping Charge Maintenance (ORD009) screen for the country code and ship-via for a current date range. By date, it simply adds some flat amount for that specific product. Override Shipping – Excludes the line item from any further shipping charge calculation. Whatever is stored with the product definition will be the only shipping charged. Special Shipping Charge – This option allows an organization to create a substitute for a standard method. If this option is defined, it will override all shipping calculation processing. Values in the drop-down are populated based on the fixed codes defined for the ORD "SHIP_CALCULATION" system type.
Shipping Surcharge	Text box. The amount of shipping that will be charged for this product in addition to system default shipping amount.
Shipping Override	Text box. The override amount only relates to this product. If a product must have special shipping, enter a value here. Otherwise, the shipping amount defaults to the standard.
Begin Date	Drop-down. On this date, as compared to the order date, this fee will be charged.
End Date	Drop-down. System-maintained field that indicates the end date of this rate. A trigger will set this as the day before the next rate defined.
Domestic or Foreign	Drop-down. When defining a shipping charge, you can differentiate them between domestic charges and foreign charges. The system allows you to define which countries are considered domestic in the org/org unit shipping details setup. Values in the drop-down are populated based on the non-fixed codes defined for the ORD "SHIPPING_RATE" system type.
Calculate	Button. When clicked, tests the shipping charge setup for this product based on a quantity of 1 item.
