[SOLVED] How do I configure Shipping Rates/Options in PrestaShop?


Recommended Posts

This may be really simple but I can't seem to understand how to configure it in Admin Panel.

My requirement is pretty simple. I have 3 carrier options. Each has different price for different country it ships to, based on weight. For example,


- Package with weight 20g shipped to US would cost $2 by normal mail, $3 by priority mail, $5 by Express service. This package would cost different to Singapore.

- Package with weight 100g shipped to US costs $10 by normal mail, $12 by priority mail, $20 by Express service. Also different rate to Singapore.


I have a feeling this should be simple to configure but I'm confused on how to configure this table rate in PrestaShop. It gives me option to configure weight ranges, price ranges, zones and countries. But how do I link them? Would appreciate any advice! Thanks :)

Go to your 'Shipping' tab in your back office and select Carriers. Add a new Carrier for each option of mailing an item that you want (ex. Express, Priority). Then go to 'Price Ranges' and add a new price range. Choose your carrier option from the pull down tab and define it like you want. If you want your items to be billed according to weight instead of price, go to the 'Weight Ranges' and define the appropriate weight ranges. When you are done defining your carrier options, go back to your 'shipping' tab and go down the page to fees. There you can select your carrier and name the appropriate fees that will be charged.

Hope this helps!

I use the same carrier with different options such as USPS Priority or USPS First Class, and what I did was name the carrier accordingly - USPS First Class - instead of just USPS. Then just define the weight and price ranges for that carrier option. If you need me to elaborate more, just let me know.

I'll put a short step-by-step guide :)

1) Add all the carriers you will offer
2) Go to weight ranges, add weight ranges for all of your carriers.. If carrier A has 3 ranges, B has 10 ranges, C has 5.. you'll end up having 18 records here
3) Click on 'Shipping' tab again and on the bottom section, select the carrier which you have made weight ranges. If you leave it default like 'Pick Up' or something you haven't defined the weight ranges, you won't see the table.
4) Fill in the prices in the table

Hope that helps!

One thing though, I ended up spending hours filling in those.. I'm sure there's a way to import to DB somehow but I was too lazy to find out.. It's one time set up anyway.. :cheese:

Thank you for the advise.

"2) Go to weight ranges, add weight ranges for all of your carriers.. If carrier A has 3 ranges, B has 10 ranges, C has 5.. you’ll end up having 18 records here" - But I can add only one range (min/max) for one carrier. :-S How you can add 10 ranges for one and the same carrier?

I use version 1.2.0.4

I'm using 1.2.0.2 so yours is newer and i'm pretty sure it can be done

Ok, when you click 'Weight Ranges' tab > click 'Add New' >
there'll be 3 fields to fill in, carrier, min, max
- now select carrier A, min = 0, max = 100, save
- add new again
- select carrier A, min = 101, max = 200, save
- repeat until you finish all ranges

if you don't see these fields then may be capture the screen and share us?

Hello,

I'm new to prestashop and would like to know how to setup postage fees?
Examples below.....

UK
1st Item £1.80 per order
Extra Items £0.90


Europe
1st Item £2.80 per order
Extra Items £1.40


United States
1st Item £4.00 per order.
Extra Items £2.00


Rest Of The World
1st Item £5.00 per order
Extra Items £2.50

How would I set that up using shipping/carriers/countries/ zones etc ? When I look at price ranges its starts from lowest first to highest, so would look like first uk item would be .90 then extra items 1.80 ?

Any help appreciated !

thanks
Paul

Hi,
1. Define zones:
2. Define carrier;
3. Define Price or Weight ranges;
4. Go to "Fees by carrier, geographical zone, and ranges" and define fees;
QED ;-)
