Freight rates can be defined for any range of product quantities, and no limit exists to the number of quantity ranges and rates that can be defined. When defining a rate's quantity range, only the minimum quantity of the range is entered in the Total Quantity Range field. The maximum quantity of the range is not entered; it is calculated upon completing and saving the table.
When defining a quantity range's minimum quantity, the minimum quantity must be greater than 0.00, such as 0.01; 0.00 cannot be the beginning range. In addition, if your beginning range's minimum quantity is 5.00 for example, then freight will not be calculated for any orders for quantities of less than 5.00.
Each range's maximum quantity is determined by each succeeding range's minimum quantity; a range's maximum quantity equals the minimum quantity of the succeeding range minus .01. Thus, defining a single value range is a three step process:
For example, say you need to define rates for the following three product quantity ranges:
To set up value ranges for the required rates, you would do the following:
The Total Quantity Range field will populate with the maximum quantity for each range.
