Configure delivery options

This page applies to:

The below video explains how to configure your delivery options:

The delivery options (available in the Delivery field on the New Order form) are defined in a JSON configuration file. Delivery options is a global setting that applies to all products in Job Ticketing.

Delivery option attributes

Each delivery option is defined by the following attributes:

AttributeDescription
nameThe name of the option as it is displayed in the Delivery Options field.
descriptionThe text that is displayed under the Delivery options field when an option is selected.
detailsLabelThe name of any additional text field that is displayed when the option is selected. For example, for Courier Delivery, the customer would need to enter a delivery address, so detailsLabel would be set to “Address”. If there are no additional fields that a customer needs to complete, set detailsLabel to null.
costThe cost for the delivery option. This is required only if you want to provide cost estimates on the New Order form. For more information about cost estimates, see Configure costs.
