In the Cresco Dashboard settings, there are 2 sections where you can define how shipping is assigned to your products.
- Default Shipping Cost Arrangement. The Default Shipping Cost Arrangement section is where you can assign the default shipping for all of your products.
- Configurable Shipping Cost Arrangement. The Configurable Shipping Cost Arrangement is where you can map to custom fields in your Maropost Commerce Cloud to assign shipping at the product level.
For more information, see this Maropost article - Set Up MyDeal Shipping.
Default Shipping Cost Arrangement
The settings applied in this section will apply to all products that do not have shipping assignment set at the product level.
Examples
| Free Shipping |

Configurable Shipping Cost Arrangement
To be able to assign different shipping settings at the product level, you will need to create custom fields in your Maropost Commerce and then map those fields in the Cresco Dashboard in the Configurable Shipping Cost Arrangement section.
The custom fields selected in this section will map per the below;
- Shipping Category Attribute maps to Shipping Category.
- This custom field must be entered in your Maropost Commerce as “1” (flat), “2” (custom) or “3” (flat any qty).
- Custom Freight Scheme ID Attribute maps to Freight Scheme ID.
- This custom field must be entered in your Maropost Commerce as the MyDeal Freight Scheme ID, e.g., “1234”.
- Shipping Cost Attribute maps to Shipping Cost.
- This custom field must be entered in your Maropost Commerce as the shipping cost value, e.g. “10”.
