Shipping Rules
by Amasty
Quite often store owners need to modify shipping rates provided by UPS, DHL or other shipping methods not to lose money. This can't be done with standard functionality, as the rates are transmitted via carrier APIs in live mode.
The module enables you to create highly-adjustable shipping rules. With the help of the rules you can increase and decrease standard rates or override them completely. Rule conditions can be based on shipping address, so you can have different rates for international or domestic delivery. You can apply rules to shipping per product, when you specify a SKU or product name. Or by certain criteria, when several products can match the same parameters, e.g. brand or size. For example, it is possible to set products from category 'Flowers', which cost less than $20, to be shipped with a $5 surcharge, when UPS carrier is selected and shipping destination is Alaska or Hawaii.
You can update rates for whole orders and for individual products. Both percentage and flat amount modifications are at your disposal for surcharge and deduction operations. Alternatively you can specify flat shipping price which will override the carrier's rate.
For additional flexibility, you can choose store views and customers groups to which the shipping method modifications are applied.
Moreover, you can set the order of rules application. When a product fits conditions of several rules, only the rule with highest priority is applied to the product to make sure shipping rates do not get messed up.
Features:
Create extremely flexible shipping rules.
The module gives you a very wide range of parameters, by which you can create shipping rules. The parameters can be used both individually and in combinations. What's more, the extension provides a number of algorithms for calculation of shipping rate surcharges, discounts and overriding. Please read on for more details.Provide shipping methods with accurate pricing to your customers not to lose orders.
Parcel and LTL (less than truckload) freights are often overpriced by carriers, when there are several products in an order. This leads to unreasonably high shipping prices. Several small products can fit into one package, however UPS (or other carrier) may charge for several packages. The same situation can be with LTL freights, such as a wardrobe for example. Customers would just refuse to overpay for delivery and you will lose money. With the extension you can set a rule that up to three items can be delivered for the base fee of let's say $100 for the truck + $20 for each item, instead of charging for the whole truck for each product. When there are five items it will be $200 for two trucks + $100 for the five items, instead of $600 for five trucks and five products. Use the module to correct the shipping rates and get more orders.Apply surcharge, discount and override actions to shipping rates.
Sometimes you may need to increase or vice versa decrease shipping rates. In other cases you may need to replace current rates. The module provides the necessary actions for all these situations.Modify rates both for individual products and for whole orders.
If there are specific products in the cart, you can increase, decrease or determine shipping rates for the whole order. Let's say surcharge by $5 all orders, which contain items which have long items in them, as it requires a longer box, for example. Also it is possible to apply the actions to individual products - e.g. give 3 euro shipping discount for each camera.Effective algorithms for rate calculation.
It is possible to modify delivery prices both by flat amount and by percent at the same time. In addition you can add a base amount for the whole order. For example, in certain situations you can add $25 surcharge for the whole order and $5 + 10% of the product price for each individual product. Or no discount for the whole order, however 5% of product price discounted off shipping for each individual item.Apply shipping rules only when a discount coupon is used.
You can specify a coupon created in 'Shopping Cart Price Rules' section and the shipping rule will apply only when the coupon is used.Handling percentage.
With this feature you can surcharge or discount total shipping cost by percent under certain conditions. E.g. provide 50% discount for shipping when order subtotal is $150 or more.Use product attributes for rule conditions.
You can employ all product attributes such as category, brand, SKU and so on. For example, you can set a rule to apply to products from category 'Shoes', of brand 'Gucci', from 'leather' material.Base rules on order and shipping address data.
Order attributes, such as subtotal, weight, items quantity are available for rule conditions. Also you can set conditions off zip code, state or province, country. E.g. you can surcharge orders with subtotal less than 100 euros and weight more than 20 kilograms, which need to be delivered to California.Conditions "starts from" and "ends with".
Especially useful for zip codes, so you can specify that a restriction should apply to all zip codes starting from '123' or ending with 'XYZ'.Set up rules by store view and customer groups.
You can have separate shipping rules for each store view and customer group. So you can give better shipping rates to your premium customers.Reduce risk of incorrect rates.
Only one rule can be applied to each product. When a product fits conditions of several rules, only the rule with the highest priority is applied to the product.Our other extensions which enhance payment, shipping and order processing functionality:

About the Developer
This extension was developed by and is supported by Amasty
Shipping Rules 5 5Shipping Rules / Customer Support When purchasing ANY third party software that will be integrated into an existing project the two main concerns for us are 1. will it solve / improve the situation 2. will the CUSTOMER SUPPORT be helpful. We purchased Amasty's Shipping Rules Extension and it totally rocked the house! PLUS the CUSTOMER SUPPORT was off the hook! We had an issue (and receiving major heat from our client) that developed from our lack of expertise in using Magento and Alex from Amasty got back to us ASAP and solved it immediately! These guys are the absolute best! If they're reading this...thank you for hitting the mark on all levels! We absolutely recommend this company! darius2,0 March 12, 2013Great Extension for Complex Shipping Rules Another great product from Amasty - we always check their site first for extensions when we need them. Well coded, well documented, well supported! We had very complex shipping rules we needed to set up (per product, per category, and per combination of categories) and this extension did the trick! I needed a little help getting the rules right and Amasty replied within a few hours of my support ticket - awesome! March 12, 2013Fantastic extension and spectacular support! I had some issues setting up the rules the way I wanted them (my fault for not being able to figure out how to) and I got the help I needed and very fast at that. Highly recommend the extension and the company (I have a couple of other extensions of theirs too and they're all great). November 12, 2012Great extension. Worked on Magento 1.7.0.2 like a charm. I have contacted a company for a support and they respond at the same day. I was looking to create a shipping rules so the system will charge a certain percentage from the total amount, this extension was perfect for it. Thanks. October 16, 2012Very good plugin. It does exactly that you want to do about to ship products and categories of products. Easy and fast to use. I suggest to use this plugin September 17, 20121-5 of 5- Q&A
