<p>Advanced Shipping Packages is a powerful plugin for WooCommerce that lets you split your customers’ carts into separate shipping packages. Each package and the products inside it will be shown separately in the cart and checkout pages, allowing you to apply different shipping rates to each package based on your setup.</p>
<p>One of the key features of Advanced Shipping Packages is its conditional logic framework, which gives you full control over how and when you create the packages, and which products you add to them. With this feature, you can create packages that meet your exact needs and requirements.</p>
<p>When your customers check out, they will see separate shipping options for each package, based on the way you have created the packages. This can help to make the checkout process more transparent and user-friendly, and give your customers more control over their shipping options.</p>

<h2>Example use cases for shipping packages</h2>
<p>Advanced Shipping Packages is also useful for a variety of different use cases. For example;</p>
<h4>Partial free shipping</h4>
<p>If you want to ship only certain products for free you can use a split cart to make it easier for the shipping method you’re using to get the right shipping for each package.<br />
For the customer it will also become much clearer which products ship for free and which are paid shipping.</p>
<h4>Ship freight items separately</h4>
<p>Big and heavy items sometimes simply can’t be shipped through the regular route. With a split package you can give the customer the option for freight shipping + regular shipping products if needed.</p>
<p>Contact for Shipping Quote is another powerful plugin that can assist with large freight</p>
<h4>Give separate options for pickup-only products</h4>
<p>Some items can’t be shipped and needs to be picked up. If the customer also has shippable products in the cart (s)he will have the option to pickup all products, or have the shippable products shipped anyways.</p>
<h4>Ship items from different origins</h4>
<p>If an order is being shipped from multiple locations, it will inevitably have double shipping costs for you. Splitting the cart allows you to charge your customer for the products that are shipped separately.</p>
<h2>Back-end interface</h2>
<p>As important it is for the customer to see the different shipping methods, it’s equally as important for you to see this in the order screen and emails. In each email to you and the customer it is communicated which shipping methods are selected. In the admin order screen, it shows you which shipping methods are chosen and which products are within the package.</p>

<p>Each package can have its own name which will show at the cart/checkout to the customer. You can also re-name the default shipping package in WooCommerce.</p>

<h2>FAQs</h2>
<h3>Can I use this plugin to ship to multiple addresses?</h3>
<p>No, the <strong>Advanced Shipping Packages</strong> plugin is only meant for scenarios in which you need to split the shipping packages. For shipping to multiple addresses take a look at <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/shipping-multiple-addresses/">Shipping Multiple Addresses</a>.</p>
<h3>What happens to products outside shipping packages setup?</h3>
<p>All products are in one package by default. Once you’re creating shipping packages using the extension those product can be split up within those new packages. If a product is not in a new package, this will remain in the default package and will be handled the same.</p>

<h3>How WooCommerce Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment works:</h3>
<p>This extension is flexible and can handle a wide range of shipping scenarios, but its main purpose is to automate order fulfillment through Amazon. This core objective drives how and when the extension is triggered to send an order’s data to Amazon. You would typically never ship a product before receiving valid payment, and this plugin works the same way.</p>
<p>WooCommerce Amazon Fulfillment only sends orders to MCF <em>automatically</em> after it detects the <strong>WooCommerce payment complete event. </strong>It has been tested with Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.Net, and Amazon Payments, but it should work with any other payment method that is properly built for WooCommerce which triggers the payment complete action.</p>
<p>Therefore, all other typical WooCommerce settings like payment gateways and shipping methods should be configured and working properly before integrating with MCF. Also,<strong> the value of each product SKU in WooCommerce must <span style="text-decoration: underline">perfectly</span> match the Seller SKU field in your MCF inventory</strong> in order for Amazon to process, pack, and ship the order (this means it’s CASE sensitive as well!). Every time the payment complete condition for an order is detected, WooCommerce Amazon Fulfillment will send the order, customer, and product information to MCF as an outbound fulfillment order for the products in the cart which are set to fulfill through Amazon. If there are any errors, the plugin will send you an email notification and will record an order note with a detailed record of the order data and the error.</p>
<p>Before using the extension, you will need to configure Amazon Marketplace Web Service (MWS) credentials which allow it to access to your Amazon fulfillment account. Read more in our <a href="https://woocommerce.com/document/amazon-fulfillment/">Documentation</a>.</p>
