Operation tips for editing freight templates
When shipping by DHL, there are several key settings to pay attention to:
-
Shipping requirement settings:
- When filling in the standard shipping fee reduction, it is recommended that the reduction rate be set to 20%, which is a 20% discount. For example, when the packaged weight of a product is 1.5kg, DHL charges 55% off the standard shipping fee for countries in zones 1-9.
-
Specific freight template settings:
- Based on the above standards, if countries in DHL zone 1-9 are charged 5.5% off the standard freight, the seller should set the standard freight reduction to 45%. In this way, the freight template setting for the 1.5kg product is successfully completed.
