-
Per
Item -
Shipping is charged as a combination of
flat rate and item rates. The
number of total items will be multiplied
by the shipping rate, which you will
enter in "Shipping Rate" as a
currency figure. This amount is
then added to a base fee, which is
entered under "Shipping Flat
Rate."
-
By
Weight -
Shipping will be charged based on the
weight of items sold. When
choosing this option, it is important to
put the weights of all items in the Item
Maintenance form. The Cart will
compute the shipping by multiplying the
Shipping Rate by the Weight. This is a
currency number.
-
Percentage
-
Shipping is computed based on a certain
percentage of the total bill. Put
the value in "Shipping Rate."
If you had 8% shipping you would enter
.08 as the percentage number.
-
By
Items - Each
item has a flat rate for the shipping
fee and is a currency. There is no
base fee charged and this entered in the
Item Maintenance menu.
-
Layered
-
Although this is the most complex
shipping model, it is the favored model
of many catalogs and online stores.
The customer knows how much shipping is
charged based on how much they purchase.
In the example below, customers who
spend $19 will pay $8.00 in shipping.
It is important in this model to cover
all prices. It would be easy to
say shipping ranges from 1 - 10, 11-20
and 20-30. What if somebody's
order comes to 20.51? (Shipping is
computed after tax.) Therefore,
you need to enter the ranges 0-10, 10.01
- 20, and 20.01-30.
Shipping
Flat Rate is a flat rate to be charged
for shipping.
Shipping
Rate is used in more than one
instance. This field is a variable
number and can be either a percentage or a
currency amount. Either way, this
figure will be multiplied to achieve a final
shipping amount. This field is used in
three different shipping models: By
Weight, Percentage, and Per Item.
Shipping
Minimum Charge - This is the
smallest rate that will be charged for
shipping.
Shipping
Maximum Charge - This is the
highest rate that will be charged for
shipping.
Layer
Ranges - Enter the value ranges and
shipping rate for each value range.
For example, shipping for orders $0-$50
would be $3.50, $50.01 - 200 would be $7.50
and orders $200.01 and up would be $12.50.
It is very important to cover all
contingencies. In the ranges above,
you can see that the lower range ends at $50
and the next higher range starts at $50.01.
If the next range started at $51, then an
item costing $50.25 would not have been
charged tax.
