Shipping

The website currently offers two methods of shipping controls: Levels and Fedex:

• Shipping Levels gives complete control of shipping prices over site managers. Site managers can create any number of shipping methods and pricing threshholds. With each shipping method / pricing threshhold a combination of flat $ fee and order total % can be specified.
• Fedex provides a base price that is automatically derived based on the weights of the items in the shopping cart. The base fedex price can be augmented by an additional fixed rate, multiplier and/or weight level price adjustments.

See the shipping section in the eCommerce tab of settings in order to select the shipping control method and the fedex price augments.

Shipping Settings

Shipping settings are specified in the eCommerce tab of settings. Either Fedex or Level shipping can be specified. Fedex shipping will base shipping charges on fedex pricing tables which can be augmented by additional charges as specified in settings. Level shipping will base shipping charges on settings made in the shipping level table. See settings for details on these shipping settings.

Fedex Shipping

If fedex shipping is selected in settings, shipping prices will be calculated based on the fedex shipping rate table and the products' weight. The fedex price can be augmented by price adjustments set in settings. The following price augments are available:

• Flat Rate
• Multiplier
• Weight Levels

Level Shipping

If level shipping is selected in settings, shipping prices will be calculated based on the level shipping table. Any number of shipping methods and dollar thresholds can be specified in the level shipping table. All shipping methods will be available for buyers to select from during the checkout process - the buyer will be charged based on the shipping method and the dollar threshhold the order total falls within.
