Product Default Courier

Overview

It is possible to select a default courier for individual products so that when they are ordered, the default courier service will always get applied regardless of shipping rules or mapping setup.

This can be set to apply when this product is ordered on its own (single line order) or alternatively if this SKU is contained in an order containing other products too by selecting the tick box 'Apply if product is contained in multiple line order'. You can do this manually on each product or in bulk via a spreadsheet upload.

1. Navigate to Products > Overview
2. Search for the product & select Action > Edit
3. Navigate to the Default Tab and select Courier Defaults in the sub-menu.
4. Setup as required & press Add
   
   

Uploading via spreadsheet

   Country	Destination country of the order for this to apply. Can be country name or short code e.g. United States or US.
