Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-6940:
------------------------------------------
This is a useful feature for example for stores that prefer to "hide" (part of) the shipping cost in the product price: in this way, the customers will get a more accurate feeling of the total purchase cost even before they perform the checkout and the shipping costs are computed (during checkout the shipping costs will be lowered because part of the cost is included in the product cost).
The implementation of the feature looks good to me.

> New price type "SHIPPING_ALLOWANCE" can be used in the scenarios where default/list prices are comprehensive of the 'Shipping Cost' quota, this price type can help user to set the Shipping Allowance cost he has included in the the product's default/list price and then modify actual shipping cost by reducing the allowance cost from it.
> minimumPrice field can be used to set the the lowest rate for a particular shipping type.
