in admin, charge shipping - 'N' on product does not work

su2
Hello Friends,

I am trying to make free shipping on individual product from admin/product catalog. If I make choose charge shipping - 'N' in admin/product catalog section, it does not give me any shipping option.

Does anybody has idea?

Thank you for the help in advance.

From the (old) documentation I read
<<Data products, such as e-books or programs downloaded across the internet, could not generate shipping charges. Promotional
pricing might include 'free shipping' which would override this setting. If you intend to charge for the shipping expense, however,
this should be set to Yes.>>

So if you use it, you will get a "no shipping" option (the Service product is a good example for that)
If you have a mix of products with Y and N, then you are able to choose between no shipping and others options

As the doc says there is also the possiblity to use a promotion with action "Shipping X% action" (with X=100) for that

Hi Jacques,

My main goal is to have free shipping(free ground shipping) on products(Want to have such promotion for 30-50 products at a time). And also give other regular expiate options with the regular price(as is).

I was looking into catalog/promo and in rules I dont see any such condition where I can have list of skus/products for which I want 'free shipping'.

Am I missing something?  

In catalog/product section, I thought if I choose Charge Shipping = 'N', it will automatically make it as a FREE shipping.

Thank you for the help.
