Shipping templates let you create your
shipping settings across several products at once (default service levels, shipping
regions, transit times, and shipping rates).
You can create up to 20 shipping templates
for specific groups of SKUs.
Before you create a
template, verify that your default shipping address is accurate and make sure you
understand the requirements.
For shipping settings to Ritou areas (remote islands and mountains), please
refer to this list.
