Shipping Costs - Items

The Shipping Costs module allows individual shipping classes to be assigned to items. This ensures that only the shipping options linked to the shipping class are used for that item. This is important, for example, for bulky goods, as these must be shipped by freight carrier and cannot be handled by standard parcel services. The following guide shows you how to assign a shipping class to an item.

For this guide, shipping classes should already be configured. We show you how to do this under Shipping Classes.

Step 1: Navigate to the Item

First, navigate to an item of your choice. You can access items by entering “Items” in the search bar and clicking on the list of the same name.This opens an overview of the already configured items, from which you can select the desired item by clicking on it.You then edit it using the “Edit” fast tab, which is located in the “Manage” menu. This should open the item card.

Step 2: Assign a Shipping Class

In this item card, you will find the “Shipping Class Code” field directly in the “Item” menu.Clicking on this field opens an overview of the already configured shipping classes, from which you can select the appropriate shipping class by clicking on it.In our example, we assign the shipping class “Freight Carrier” to the racing bike.
