This article provides a step-by-step guide on creating a case-picking fee charged through a volume-tiered rate. For further guidance, you can also watch the instructional video here. 

1. Navigate to Rates > Rate List.
   
2. Click + Create Rate in the upper right corner. 
   
3. Select the following options as shown below on the Create New Rate window. Then, click Continue. 
   
   Automated rate > Simple Rate > Tiered Rate
   
4. Provide basic details such as Rate Name, Rate Description, and Charge Label.
5. Select Shipping for the Transaction Type and Handling for the Charge Category. Then, click Continue.
6. Select the following for each field in the Charge Method section. Then, click Next.
   
   Charge Type: Flat
   Counting Unit: Packaging Units
   Calculate By: Count Less Other UOMs
   

   Count Less Other Unit of Measures (UOMs) Pre-Condition

   For a deeper understanding of the Count Less Other UOMs method of calculation, please refer to our article on Count Less Other UOMs Pre-Conditions. 
   
   To discern the difference between Count and Count Less Other UOMs, consult our article on Understanding Count vs Count Less Other UOMs.

    
   
   
7. Select Volume Tiering. Then, click Next.
   
8. Follow a sample guide below to understand how volume tiering works. Click the + icon to add another tier. 
   

   Please note that the operator for each tier is locked. You can only edit the charge amount for each tier and set the value for your 1st and 2nd tier. The value you enter in the To field will serve as the parameter for your last tier.

    
   
   

   What does Volume Tiering mean in the above example?

   Charges for the total number of cases will depend on the tier within which the quantity falls. For picks with 5 cases or less, a charge of $1.00 per case will apply. For picks with 6 to 10 cases, a charge of $0.75 will apply. For the last tier, for picks involving 11 cases or more, there will be a charge of $0.50.
   
   For instance, if there are 12 cases to pick, they would fall into Tier 3. Consequently, the system will apply a $0.50 charge for all 12 cases, resulting in an applied rate of $6.00.
