Order Operations
Shipping Mappings
REQUIRED
Configure the Shipping method to assign the mapping to imported orders. Shipping Mapping is the process of pre-selecting specific shipping methods and saving them in your Channel Settings so that when new orders are made to import, your preferred forms will be auto-assigned to those orders.
The idea is to increase efficiency by eliminating the need to select shipping methods for individual orders. If you're unsure, check the store shipping method in your test order to confirm how the shipping details are imported from your store or marketplace. You will need to map to this exact method and assign different shipping for the Next Day, Overnight. depending on the carriers and processes supported by your supplier
Info
The determine what to populate in your Flxpoint Channel Shipping Text, in Shift4Shop go to Settings > Shipping > Select methods under shipping methods > add the shipping method to your preference

Sync Orders
