With our extension, you have the option to create shipping classes. Shipping classes allow you to additionally filter shipping options by item classifications. You can then assign these shipping classes to an item later. This means that in the future, only the shipping options that also match the item’s shipping class will be considered. In the following, we will show you how to create a shipping class.
We will show you how to assign a shipping class to an item under Items.

Step 3: Choose a Code

In the newly created row, a code should first be chosen.
The code should be written in uppercase letters and must not contain any spaces. However, numbers and certain special characters can be used.
In addition, the code can later be used to assign shipping classes to the shipping options.In our example, we choose “Paket” as the code, since we want to create a shipping class for standard packages.
Code entry 'Paket'

Step 4: Choose a Description

This completes the creation of the shipping class. As soon as you press Enter or click outside the row you just created, the changes to the list are saved automatically.
