Define formula for zone rate shipping

I'm using weight for calculating shipping cost. For example, 500g $10, 1000g $15, 1500g $20 etc. Is it possible for me to define a formula into the cost e.g. increment $5 for each 500g. I don't have maximum weigh on my parcel because I can always split them into 2 parcels. I don't know what is the maximum weight I should define to if I need to set them one by one.

Any expert can help?

Re: Define formula for zone rate shipping

You could customize Flat Rate flat or Item Rate item by cloning it to your own module, such as Gram Rate gramrate ...

Then write your own formula in the function quote of the shipping module and use that ...

For more information on cloning a module you might try a search on:
clone flat
clone item

as there are a lot of examples of this ... :smile:
