How to calculate shipping

PLEASE TELL ME HOW CAN I CALCULETE SHIPPING COST FOR ALL THE ITEMS IN THE SHOPPING CART.

Hi bhattacharyya

Welcome to OFBiz.

There are a couple main ways of calculating shipping...

Calculate based off of an internal calculator using the number of
packages, their weight, etc...

Or

Send off information about the package(s) to the USPS, UPS, DHL, etc,
and get the shipping costs from an api provided by these services.


In either case, the best place to start learning about the process is in
the demo data,
(See Catalog --> Store --> Shipping) and/or the production setup guide.

Good Luck
