Overview

Handling charge rules can be applied to any package. A handling charge rule is used to tell the software how to calculate any desired handling charges when a customer purchases the package. This would only be necessary if the package handling charges are different from any global rules that currently exist for the entire catalog.

Use this section to view, remove, add, activate, or deactivate package-specific handling charges. Handling charges will be applied to the package base price at checkout, and any global handling charges will be deactivated for the package.
