Uploading Weight Based Shipping Profile
What is it?
BackerKit now offers a way to upload a weight based shipping table to generate the shipping profile with a click of a button.
What are the common use cases?
- I have a lot of shipping regions and each shipping table has a lot of ranges and building them out manually takes too long.
How can I enable it for my project?
If you are interested in using this feature, please find instructions below.
- Make a copy of the shipping upload template here and download it in .CSV format.
- Fill out the information on the template (See Legend for directions).
- Go to your weight-based shipping table by clicking "Add Shipping Fees," then select either:
- "Whole Order Weight-Based" or
- "Stackable Shipping >> Weight-Based Add-on Shipping"
Looking for metric?
BackerKit defaults to LBS & OZ, if your shipping quotes are metric, kilograms & grams, you can edit this under the Advanced Shipping tab.
- Once you're in your weight-based shipping profile, scroll to the bottom to find the "Upload Shipping Rates" area.
- Select your file and upload it.
- If there are errors during the upload, they will be displayed in the changelog section of the shipping upload.
- The error log will show you where the error is in the file so you can update it and try again.
- If you continue having trouble, contact your Success rep or hello@backerkit.com.
