User Guide

Let‘s examine all of the information you need to enter:
 Company: Fill out this field with the name of your carrier and/or a
description of the service (for instance, you could fill in ―PrestaPost
— only 500 lbs and over‖)
 *Logo-: Add a logo so that your customers can easily choose
between different carriers.
 Transit time: This is displayed to customers during checkout. It will
help them select their carrier according to the amount of time they
have to wait until they receive their product.
 URL: This field must be filled with the tracking URL provided by
your carrier. For example, France‘s postal service (La Poste) offers
this URL:
http://www.colissimo.fr/portail_colissimo/suivreResultat.do?parceln
umber=@ . When customers select their carrier, they will be sent
the URL that you enter into this field, which they can click on in
order to track their delivery.
 Zone: indicate the customer's zones in which the carrier is available
(in short, the zones where the carrier can make deliveries).
 Group Access: Select which groups have access to this carrier.
 Status: Include or exclude this carrier in your shop's list of carriers.
 Shipping & handling: Include the shipping & handling costs in the
carrier's price
 Tax: Indicate if this carrier requires a tax in order to deliver to a
certain zone.
 Shipping & Handling: Include or exclude shipping & handling costs
in this carrier's price.
 Out-of-range behavior In case you have left out a range for an
order, you can indicate how the software should react. You have two
options:
o If the software doesn‘t find the range it needs, it will take the
largest configuration and apply these conditions.
o Otherwise, it will not offer this carrier because it can‘t deliver
this order.
 Finally, save your newly-created carrier.
Here is an example of out-of-range behavior: Let's say you have set up a
weight range from 0 to 10 lbs. Your customer wants to place an order that
is 15 lbs, and no behavior has been configured for this weight. By
choosing ―Apply the cost of the highest defined range‖, PrestaShop will
apply the price conditions that you have set up for orders from 5-10 lbs If
you choose ―Deactivate the carrier‖, then this carrier will not be offered to
the customer in this case.
