SKU Fee Configuration

The SKU Fee, found under Ship > Inventory > Products, is an optional charge applied to each SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) per fulfillment. This feature allows you to specify an additional fee associated with handling or specific services related to the SKU.

Fields:

  • SKU Fee (Optional):
    • Amount: Enter the amount you wish to charge for each fulfillment of this SKU. This fee is added to the total cost for each order that includes this SKU.

    • Frequency: Default is Per Fulfillment, meaning the fee is charged each time the SKU is fulfilled. Ensure this reflects your intended billing strategy.

    • Fee Description (Optional): Add a label for the SKU Fee (e.g., “Special Handling Fee”). This description will appear on invoices, helping clients understand the nature of the charge.

How to Set Up:

  1. Enter the fee amount.

  2. Add a clear description.

  3. Save changes.
