00:00:13:14 - 00:00:15:13
In this tutorial, we'll begin to explore
00:00:15:13 - 00:00:19:07
the available delivery
and shipping options available to Infigo.
00:00:19:07 - 00:00:20:03
Users
00:00:20:19 - 00:00:24:09
will take a general
look at the general delivery settings.
00:00:24:22 - 00:00:28:18
Defining delivery methods,
inputting delivery restrictions
00:00:29:00 - 00:00:32:08
and delivery computation
00:00:32:08 - 00:00:34:12
Infigo have numerous plug ins available
00:00:34:12 - 00:00:37:05
linking to global
delivery and shipping companies.
00:00:37:18 - 00:00:41:19
We will briefly discuss those available
plugins during this tutorial.
00:00:42:11 - 00:00:45:07
However, they will be covered in their own
dedicated
00:00:45:14 - 00:00:51:18
areas and sections.
00:00:51:18 - 00:00:55:06
So to begin with, we're going to navigate
to our delivery settings
00:00:55:06 - 00:00:58:16
so I could get to it through our list down
here.
00:00:59:01 - 00:01:02:16
However, sometimes it's easier
just to start typing the area
00:01:02:16 - 00:01:04:17
that you want in this search menu here.
00:01:04:17 - 00:01:06:22
So go for delivery
00:01:06:22 - 00:01:13:18
and I can access our delivery settings.
00:01:13:18 - 00:01:17:16
So these general delivery settings
are used to define information which sit
00:01:17:16 - 00:01:20:23
outside of other,
more specific delivery sections.
00:01:21:12 - 00:01:24:12
Information
you can define in here includes things
00:01:24:12 - 00:01:27:14
such as the delivery origin details.
00:01:27:14 - 00:01:28:14
So you can specify
00:01:29:19 - 00:01:31:22
where your
delivery is actually being shipped from
00:01:32:21 - 00:01:37:15
and whether or not you want to
sort of trigger a free delivery price.
00:01:37:15 - 00:01:41:19
So for example, if you want free delivery
over a certain value of order,
00:01:42:08 - 00:01:48:09
you can specify that in here as well.
00:01:48:09 - 00:01:51:20
So there's other options in here as well,
such as estimated delivery
00:01:53:13 - 00:01:55:13
and any delivery restrictions
00:01:55:13 - 00:02:02:20
which are set up in a different type.
00:02:02:20 - 00:02:06:10
Once you've made the changes you want to
those settings, you just click on save
00:02:07:12 - 00:02:19:06
and then we'll navigate
to our delivery methods.
00:02:19:06 - 00:02:22:19
So delivery methods
is the user facing side
00:02:22:19 - 00:02:25:06
of how Infigo handles delivery.
00:02:25:19 - 00:02:31:02
When a customer is in the delivery method
stage checkout, they're going to choose.
00:02:31:02 - 00:02:33:22
One of the methods that are configured
within this screen here,
00:02:34:10 - 00:02:37:07
and the cost of the delivery
will be handled by the delivery
00:02:37:07 - 00:02:41:09
rate computation configuration
against this delivery method,
00:02:43:00 - 00:02:43:17
as delivery
00:02:43:17 - 00:02:48:03
methods do not
handle any of the calculations themselves
00:02:48:10 - 00:02:51:05
and are simply what the customer will see
in the checkout.
00:02:51:12 - 00:02:53:13
They're going to be fairly simple
to configure.
00:02:55:13 - 00:02:57:09
So first class and second class delivery
00:02:57:09 - 00:03:00:21
methods are predefined on all of Infigo
storefronts.
00:03:01:11 - 00:03:05:14
These are controlled from a platform level
and cannot be amended or deleted
00:03:05:22 - 00:03:09:12
by the storefront administrator. A
00:03:10:21 - 00:03:12:13
However, storefront administrator
00:03:12:13 - 00:03:15:18
does have the ability
to define additional delivery methods.
00:03:16:06 - 00:03:18:10
So if I go to add new
00:03:18:20 - 00:03:21:01
on the top left corner,
00:03:21:11 - 00:03:23:02
that will bring me to a new screen
00:03:23:02 - 00:03:25:12
which is allowing me
to define a new delivery method.
00:03:26:01 - 00:03:29:22
And as we mentioned in the introduction
there, it's very basic.
00:03:30:06 - 00:03:31:20
It's just
00:03:32:02 - 00:03:34:13
defining what that delivery method
is going to be.
00:03:34:13 - 00:03:40:05
And all of the calculation behind that
delivery method will be done elsewhere.
00:03:40:05 - 00:03:44:14
So if I put something very creative
like my first delivery
00:03:44:14 - 00:03:50:06
method, I can enter a description
00:03:50:06 - 00:03:54:01
if I wish to do so
and I can control the display order.
00:03:54:01 - 00:03:56:12
Now, we've seen that numerous times
in other locations.
00:03:56:12 - 00:03:59:22
It's just where it appears
in the list of similar options.
00:04:01:09 - 00:04:03:11
So if we're
looking at a list of our delivery options
00:04:03:11 - 00:04:06:10
on the storefront, we can control
where that appears in the list
00:04:07:14 - 00:04:12:04
and I'll save that.
00:04:13:07 - 00:04:15:23
And that's our delivery method
defined thus.
00:04:15:23 - 00:04:18:22
That's about it, to be honest.
00:04:18:22 - 00:04:28:21
Next, we're going to navigate
to delivery restrictions.
00:04:28:21 - 00:04:32:03
So this section allows
a storefront administrator to define
00:04:32:03 - 00:04:35:19
any limitations
with any of your shipping methods.
00:04:36:08 - 00:04:39:18
This is to ensure that customers
are only able to access delivery options
00:04:39:18 - 00:04:44:20
that are relevant to them
and to their locations.
00:04:44:20 - 00:04:48:15
So for example, if I go to add new record
00:04:52:06 - 00:04:53:10
and specify
00:04:53:10 - 00:04:55:19
something in here,
I'm just going to make it
00:04:57:19 - 00:05:00:08
delivery restrictions.
00:05:00:08 - 00:05:02:20
You can have numerous sets
of delivery restrictions.
00:05:03:14 - 00:05:06:04
However, we'll just create
one for now and insert
00:05:10:04 - 00:05:10:22
we can define
00:05:10:22 - 00:05:14:03
define some additional details
by clicking the configuration
00:05:14:03 - 00:05:17:21
button.
00:05:17:21 - 00:05:22:08
This is allowing us to further
define delivery restrictions.
00:05:22:08 - 00:05:26:08
So it could be an offset
so you can set a delivery offset
00:05:26:08 - 00:05:29:20
where this is the amount of days
required for delivery after
00:05:30:04 - 00:05:33:08
the status
is set to shift elsewhere Infigo
00:05:34:07 - 00:05:36:04
or we can set particular dates.
00:05:36:04 - 00:05:42:15
So selected days are ignored when
calculating the execution time offset.
00:05:42:15 - 00:05:47:01
So for example, if we want to say it's
three day standard delivery
00:05:47:12 - 00:05:51:10
and we don't want to include Saturdays
and Sundays within that three days.
00:05:51:10 - 00:05:53:23
So it's working days only
00:05:54:04 - 00:05:56:13
that we can be selective like this.
00:05:56:13 - 00:05:58:23
We also have the ability
to utilize calendars
00:05:58:23 - 00:06:01:08
that we've defined within our storefront.
00:06:02:01 - 00:06:04:22
We won't be covering that
in this particular tutorial, but
00:06:04:22 - 00:06:09:10
if you have defined a calendar elsewhere,
you can utilize it for this purpose.
00:06:09:22 - 00:06:13:18
And this is, for example,
if you've got certain days
00:06:13:18 - 00:06:17:08
within your calendar month
or a specific month where
00:06:18:15 - 00:06:21:23
your printing capability
is not going to be available.
00:06:21:23 - 00:06:26:00
So say the machine is being serviced,
for example, you could set up a calendar
00:06:26:00 - 00:06:28:18
which shows you that information
and then select that here.
00:06:29:03 - 00:06:37:00
And it will include that
when calculating the delivery offset.
00:06:37:00 - 00:06:41:05
So I'll save on there as well.
00:06:41:05 - 00:06:44:09
We've also got the ability
to apply country restrictions.
00:06:44:11 - 00:06:50:03
So that's this tab here.
00:06:50:03 - 00:06:53:00
So this screen just allows us to select
00:06:53:18 - 00:06:58:03
the countries in which a particular method
is not available.
00:06:58:03 - 00:07:00:14
So we're going to leave first
and second class alone
00:07:00:14 - 00:07:02:20
as they're controlled
from a storefront level.
00:07:02:20 - 00:07:06:08
However, with our own modified
or specified delivery method,
00:07:06:16 - 00:07:09:16
I can choose the countries
where that is not available.
00:07:10:12 - 00:07:13:22
So let's say, for example,
that particular method is not available
00:07:13:22 - 00:07:15:08
in North America.
00:07:15:08 - 00:07:19:01
I could say United States and Canada.
00:07:19:01 - 00:07:21:20
Save that
and then that method won't appear
00:07:23:07 - 00:07:26:01
to those particular uses.
00:07:26:02 - 00:07:29:07
Okay, finally,
we're going to go to shipping computation
00:07:29:22 - 00:07:36:23
or delivery computation.
00:07:36:23 - 00:07:41:21
So from this screen, administrators
can define or calculate cost of delivery
00:07:42:06 - 00:07:45:12
along with defining the methods
available to their customers.
00:07:46:19 - 00:07:50:13
The methods displayed are a mixture
of those contained solely within Infigo.
00:07:51:00 - 00:07:54:03
So this is things such as fixed
rate shipping
00:07:55:01 - 00:07:57:20
and shipping by weight.
00:07:57:20 - 00:08:02:00
These are set up completely within Infigo
and calculated within Infigo.
00:08:02:00 - 00:08:06:06
And there's also a lot of options in here
which are going to external services
00:08:06:06 - 00:08:08:01
via available plugins.
00:08:08:01 - 00:08:11:21
And the primary example of
that is our easy post plug in.
00:08:13:02 - 00:08:16:04
Now this particular tutorial
will focus on the methods
00:08:16:04 - 00:08:20:11
that are internal to Infigo.
00:08:20:11 - 00:08:24:19
So what I'm going to do is locate fixed
rate shipping because that's nice, simple,
00:08:25:09 - 00:08:36:15
and I'm going to hit configure.
00:08:36:15 - 00:08:39:18
And what you can see here
is that administrators can define
00:08:39:18 - 00:08:42:13
shipping costs which are fixed in value.
00:08:43:02 - 00:08:46:15
So I was specified shipping
methods are all listed
00:08:47:00 - 00:08:52:22
and then we have a fixed rate
for each of those shipping methods.
00:08:52:22 - 00:08:55:18
I want to update those
values. I can just add, edit,
00:08:56:19 - 00:08:58:14
change the value
00:08:58:17 - 00:09:14:04
and update.
00:09:14:04 - 00:09:18:12
Next, we'll explore the shipping
by weight option.
00:09:18:12 - 00:09:19:04
It's crucial to
00:09:19:04 - 00:09:23:15
remember that before we do utilize
this methodology that all of our relevant
00:09:23:15 - 00:09:28:13
products do have weights assigned to them,
otherwise it won't accurate.
00:09:28:13 - 00:09:31:19
We'd be able to calculate
the total of the weights and will
00:09:31:19 - 00:09:35:05
not really effectively
be able to utilize this delivery method
00:09:36:04 - 00:09:39:04
and the method for doing
that is contained in other
00:09:39:04 - 00:09:40:15
tutorial videos.
00:09:43:07 - 00:09:47:15
So for simplicity, well, first, going to
deactivate the fixed rate shipping method.
00:09:47:15 - 00:09:50:03
So we're going to make it so that we can't
00:09:50:17 - 00:09:54:13
choose fixed rate shipping and it's
going to be just shipping by weight.
00:09:55:06 - 00:09:57:15
We do this by going to the relevant line
00:09:58:10 - 00:10:00:13
and then over on the right hand side,
we have edit
00:10:01:16 - 00:10:04:14
that just gives the ability to choose
whether a particular option
00:10:04:14 - 00:10:08:04
is active or not.
00:10:08:04 - 00:10:09:11
And then update
00:10:10:01 - 00:10:12:05
and I'm going to do the same
00:10:12:08 - 00:10:15:23
on shipping by weight,
00:10:15:23 - 00:10:27:05
so I'll enable that one.
00:10:27:05 - 00:10:29:19
So now let's configure
the shipping by weight method.
00:10:29:19 - 00:10:32:15
So just go to the configure option
next to the relative
00:10:33:13 - 00:10:40:15
relevant line.
00:10:40:15 - 00:10:44:07
So the shipping by weight option
allows you to set weight
00:10:44:07 - 00:10:47:12
tiers
based on each country on your storefront.
00:10:48:05 - 00:10:51:17
This means that if a customer is ordering
a particularly heavy order line,
00:10:51:19 - 00:10:54:18
you could restrict them
to only having certain methods available
00:10:55:07 - 00:10:58:04
and you could charge them different costs
for different weight tiers.
00:10:59:09 - 00:11:01:23
So that this page comes in two parts.
00:11:01:23 - 00:11:04:14
The top is a table of existing
00:11:05:03 - 00:11:09:03
weight tiers, which we've defined,
and then we have a series of fields
00:11:09:03 - 00:11:12:06
underneath it
which allow us to define a new entry
00:11:12:06 - 00:11:16:12
into this table.
00:11:16:12 - 00:11:20:11
So the information is looking for
we can specify a country if necessary,
00:11:21:15 - 00:11:25:12
or you can just leave it
as the default asterisk,
00:11:25:12 - 00:11:29:18
which will leave it as applying
to all countries.
00:11:29:18 - 00:11:32:20
You select the delivery method
that you want to apply this against,
00:11:32:20 - 00:11:34:19
so we can set this against
the one we've just made.
00:11:34:19 - 00:11:43:09
For example, then we specify a weight
from an A weight to
00:11:43:09 - 00:11:49:17
so if it sits between these two values,
it will be a certain charge.
00:11:49:17 - 00:11:53:01
So if we go from zero to say ten kilos,
00:11:54:13 - 00:11:57:21
that would be, let's say £8
00:12:02:00 - 00:12:03:13
in the charge amount.
00:12:03:13 - 00:12:07:03
You also have the ability
to charge the delivery
00:12:07:03 - 00:12:10:09
fee as a percentage of the total order
cost as well.
00:12:10:10 - 00:12:16:14
And we'll do that
on one of our other tiers.
00:12:16:14 - 00:12:18:21
So I can add that record,
00:12:19:02 - 00:12:21:21
you see, that adds a line for me
with all that information detailed
00:12:22:07 - 00:12:29:11
and I can edit it if I wish to do so.
00:12:29:11 - 00:12:31:17
So I'm going to define
two more records in here.
00:12:32:05 - 00:12:36:23
One is going to be
a delivery charge of £12,
00:12:38:14 - 00:12:40:22
and that's if it's between ten kilos
00:12:40:22 - 00:12:48:10
and 20 kilos, again, apply
00:12:48:10 - 00:12:52:07
to the same delivery method.
00:12:52:07 - 00:12:55:02
And then finally we'll do one,
which is a percentage.
00:12:56:18 - 00:12:59:03
And that's going to be
still the same delivery method
00:12:59:14 - 00:13:02:10
it's going to be
if it's above 20 kilograms.
00:13:02:10 - 00:13:04:13
So we'll go with 20 kilograms.
00:13:04:13 - 00:13:07:16
We'll put a really large number
in there for the maximum.
00:13:08:16 - 00:13:11:13
And then
instead of putting a charge amount,
00:13:12:01 - 00:13:15:05
I can put in a percentage
00:13:16:08 - 00:13:17:01
and then a percentage
00:13:17:01 - 00:13:30:04
value.
00:13:30:04 - 00:13:30:14
Okay.
00:13:30:14 - 00:13:34:07
We also have an option further down
underneath these definitions
00:13:34:07 - 00:13:37:18
which allows us to limit delivery options
to configured ones.
00:13:38:17 - 00:13:41:15
So this option ensures
that only the delivery options defined
00:13:41:15 - 00:13:45:07
by records on the shipping to weight
page will be utilized.
00:13:46:06 - 00:13:48:21
