Bottom Menu Bar
Zip/Zone Tables - Zip tables can be used to add shipping charges based upon zip code zones within
the United States. Set up the zip/zone lookup tables first. This can be done through Configuration >
Shipping and Taxes or through Edit Catalog > Shipping (for each product that is set to use the zip/zone
method). After a zip/zone table is created, then set each product to use a zip/zone table and set the 7
zone rates for each product. This is essentially how UPS and FedEx look up the zone from the zip code,
however this method allows you to set rates for each zone specifically for each product.
Shipping Discounts - Shipping discounts can be created based upon the quantity of shippable products
that are in the shopping cart basket.
Custom Shipping Options - When Custom is selected as the main Shipping Method, there will be an
additional link in the bottom menu bar.
