Quick and easy guide to set up Freightsolutions for intelligent carrier price calculations.
To start using Freightsolution prices on your carriers, a 'Cost Sheet' have to be configured for each carrier Freightsolution needs to calculate prices for.
Start by going to Settings -> Cost Sheets and click 'Add Cost Sheet' in the top right corner.
You will now need to do the following:
1. Select a carrier to draw prices for through the Freightsolution API.
(As an example, the carrier 'DHL Express' have been used in the pictures below)
2. Select 'Freightsolution' as the type of price.
3. Input your Freightsolution API key (if you don't have this yet, contact Freightsolution).
4. Configure a validity to/from date.
After this has been configured, you are now able to draw prices on shipping rates for each carrier with the above configuration under 'Cost Sheets' - but you have to enable cost sheets/carrier quoting on each individual shipping rate after configuring the Cost Sheets.
To do this, you have to open up a shipping rate and enable 'Carrier quote' like so:
After 'Carrier quote' has been activated, the shipping rate will now request prices from the Freightsolution API instead of a static price set on the rate in Webshipper.
