Shipping Mapping

Amazon uses the following shipping terms depending on the marketplace for standard shipping:

STD - Standard.

EXP - Express.

DOM - Domestic.

INT: - International.

Example:  

STD UK DOM.

STD UK INT.

EXP UK INT.

Multiple rates or zones: If the store offers multiple courier rates or zones, Amazon adds _1 for each zone at the end.

For example, EXP UK DOM_1 or EXP UK DOM_2.

Premium shipping methods: If you offer one day or two day premium shipping this is communicated as:

UK NEXT

UK SECOND

Prime shipping methods: If you're on the seller fulfilled prime programme then the mappings have -PRIME at the end of the tag, for example:

STD UK DOM_1-PRIME.

STD UK DOM_2-PRIME.

STD UK DOM-PRIME.

UK NEXT-PRIME.

UK SECOND-PRIME.

Map these terms in the couriers name field on OMS in Shipping, Courier Service Mappings.
