# Shipping carriers

This topic describes how to configure the shipping carriers used by the store.

Use shipping carriers to identify carriers used by the store.

1. Click **Setup**.
2. Expand **Inventory/Purchasing**.
3. Click **Shipping Carriers**.
4. Click **New**.
5. Enter the carrier's **Name**.
6. Enter the URLs for their:

* Main website
* Shipping portal
* Tracking portal

7. (Optional) On the **Service** tab:
   1. Click **Add** to add a service or click **Properties** to edit an existing service.
   2. Under **Schedule of charges**, select **Weight** to identify services charges by package weight, or select **Total** to identify service charges by other shipment characteristics.
   3. In the table, enter the **Value** increments and the corresponding **Charge**. For example, if you selected **Weight**, you would enter weight increments (kgs or lbs) in the **Value** column such as 5, 10, 15, and 20. You would then enter the corresponding shipping charges for those weights in the **Charge** column such as $10.00, $20.00, $30.00, or $40.00.
   4. (Optional) Enable the **Interpolated schedule** option if you want RMH to calculate (interpolate) the charge if the value falls between the specified increments. For example, if you enter weight increments in the **Value** column for 15 and 20, and the package weight (17.5) falls between those two increments, RMH can calculate the charge based on the charges for the 15 and 20 weight increments.
8. (Central Manager only) On the **Store Groups** tab, select the store groups that use this shipping carrier.
9. Click **Save And Close**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rmhpos.com/store-manager/configure-pos-and-store-manager/inventory-and-purchasing/shipping-carriers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
