    Default Additional fee handling

    At the moment I offer shipping by zones:
    6,80€ or free shipping above 100€.

    I would like distinguish between shipping costs and costs for material and Lucid (German licencing program for shipping material recycling management).
    That would result in 1. 4,90€ + 1,90€ or 2. free shipping and 1,90€ extra fee (if above 100€).

    Prisewise I could just configure the zones to 1,90€ above 100€ of course. But to make it transparent to the customer an additional point would be good to make a professional decleration of the costs.

    Is there a built-in possibility to additionally add such a fee at the checkout?

    Wow! Just Wow!

    This gave me a idea for my own store.

    I have some hire products where I wanted to add in a bond, but we've never wanted to include it in the price because it makes it look unpalatable.

    However, add in a dropdown attribute with just one option available (with the $ value of the bond you want) and it gets automatically included when added to cart.

    Brilliant!

    For you, I think,

    go into Option Name Manager
    Add a New Option Name
    Lucid
    go into Option Value Manager
    Select Option Name to filter Values
    Lucid
    Then enter 'costs for material and Lucid' - or whatever you want
    Insert
    go into Attributes Controller
    select the product
    select Lucid
    select 'costs for material and Lucid'
    put 1.90 in the price field
    click insert

    done

    Thank you for your effort.
    I understand how to create and alter attributes.
    What I meant is whether you are going to combine the attribute at the checkout with a shipping module or similar.
    As I understand you approach you are going to add the attribute to the product, right?

    I'm not, no, I'm not using it for shipping purposes.

    Is your 1.90 for the whole order or per product?

    It is for the whole shipping.

    The shipping consists of 1. "postage" and 2. "package and recycling"

    Instead of showing 6,80€ I would like to show 4,90€ for "postage" and 1,90€ for "package and recycling".

    You could create an order-total module that (a) determines and (b) displays the 'package and recycling' cost to the customer.
