The Table Lookup Shipping Method is a generic module that allows you to define your own prices based on location and total weight or value of the package.
The prices offered are based on a combination of ranges. Each range that meets the criteria will be offered to the user.
Price based on total order
Select weight if you want to base your shipping on the total weight of the items in the order (including Tare Weight). Select price if you want to base your shipping on the total value of items in the order.
Ranges
To add a new range, click the "Add a row" link.
Each range is comprised of five parameters:
- Label is what will be shown to the customer if the option is presented to them
- Min is the minimum value for the range (weight or price)
- ONLY enter numbers here (enter 10, not $10 or 10lb)
- Weights are in pounds, with fractional pounds as an option (i.e. 8oz = 0.5lbs)
- Min is inclusive (if you enter 2 and the value for the order is 2, the range will be shown)
- Max is the maximum value for the range (weight or price)
- Same rules apply as Min, except:
- Max is exclusive (if you enter 2 and the value for the order is 2, the range will not be shown, but 1.99 would). In most cases, this means the Min of one range is the same as the Max of the previous range.
- If left blank, the option will apply to all values above the Min
- Price is the shipping price offered*
- Countries are the countries for which this range applies. You can CTRL+click (PC) or Command+Click (Mac) to select or deslect multiple countries. NOTE: if you wanted to offer the price to all counties except one, select them all using the Shift key and then simply un-select the one(s) you don't want to include.
Additional Guidelines
- Each "set" (typically a selection of countries) should begin with a range that has a Min of 0
- Each "set" should end with a range that ends with a blank (or impossibly high) Max
- Don't leave out any values in the range between 0 and whatever the ultimate Max is (again, usually blank)
