StarShip can store a list of possible values for 3dcart Shipping Methods, which you can set up to translate to values for the Carrier-Service field in StarShip. This allows your Shipping Method to be imported with the Order. You can also set up values for the International Carrier-Service field.
StarShip does not automatically retrieve the Shipping Methods from 3dcart so you will need to add them if you want StarShip to translate your 3dcart Shipping Method values into StarShip Carrier-Service values.
If you don’t set up Value Translations for your Shipping Methods, StarShip will attempt to use default keywords to translate the imported Shipping Methods.
3dcart Shipping Methods
In 3dcart, the shipping methods are set up from Dashboard > Settings > Shipping > Shipping Methods – Select Methods. You’ll want to note the exact Shipping Method names so you can set them up in StarShip.
