Creating Shipping Methods
- In the dashboard main menu… click Sales and choose nShift Online > Shipping Methods
- Click “Add new shipping method”-button up in the right corner.
- Name your Shipping Method in the “Title field”. Ex. DHL, PostNord or Schenker
- Choose your store view (you can have different methods depending on store view). “Default Store View” is standard.
- Choose “Method” from the list. Method is the shipping service code that you received from your carrier.
- Active, Yes or No. Active means it will be seen in the checkout. And No means not seen.
- Enable Automation (Yes or No). This is a new feature. Automation means that an order will receive a status (that you decide in step 9) by auto. Shipping tracking no etc will be generated and there is no need for you to go into the order to package your products (as you normally need in Magento 2). Choose yes to turn on Automation and No to handle orders as usually.
- If you choose to use Automation you also need to choose a “Package type”. This information should be provided by your chosen carrier. Ex. DHL, PostNord or Schenker.
- Order status, if Automation is turned on you will need to choose which order status an order will receive when generated.
- If you want to be able to create return shipments, select a return service to use. If you the return shipment to be created at the same time as the turn shipment set “Automatic Returns” to “Yes”
- Add-ons. Depending on your chosen carrier you can activate add-ons. See list from carrier
- Specification is where you set specifications for each Shipping Method.
For example: If you have different prices depending on country, zip code, weight etc.
If you use the same method to ship to different countries it can be set like this:
Remember to not use commas for decimals in logic, use dots instead.
Title = Description of transport ex. “Delivery 1-3 days”
Country = Country code like SE. Can be separated by comma SE,DK,FI or * = All
ZIP = Single ZIP-code like 100 12, 10012-17569 (for range of ZIP-codes), or * = All
Weight = Set weight limits ex. 0-5, 6-10, 11-20 or * = All
Width = Set width limits ex. 0-20, 21-80, 81-150 or * = All
Height = Set height limits ex. 0-20, 21-80, 81-150 or * = All
Volume = Use *
Cart Subtotal = Set cart subtotal limits ex. 0-500, 501-1000, 1001-2000
Price = Price you want to charge the customer for transport
When specifying ranges the logic will use the minimum value to check for “equal or greater than” and the maximum value will be checked for “lesser than”. Specifying no minimum or maximum value means to ignore that check so -5 is equal to “lesser than 5” and 0-5 means “0 or greater while also being lesser than 5”.
You can combine single-values or spans with commas like this 63350-63370,72210-72220,11170 which can be suitable for zip-codes. All spaces will be removed in comparisons so 722 10 will be converted to 72210. - Click Save-button up in the right corner to save settings.
- Click “Add New Shipping Method” to create new different shipping methods and follow the steps above.
Orders and printing
When using Automation
If you have turned on Automation you can see all orders in the Magento dashboard by clicking Sales/Orders in the main menu. The Automation has already created the package, tracking number and booking of carrier by auto. All you need to do is mark all orders and choose “Print Shipping Labels” from the Actions dropdown above the list of orders. This will create a pdf with all shipping labels for the chosen orders.
Note: Because you use Automation the orders may take some minutes to be seen in the order list, due to CRON.
