Creating and configuring a ProTeria CloudConnect shipping method
With the ProTeria CloudConnect plugin you connect a regular WooCommerce shipping method to a specific ProTeria CloudConnect shipment service.
- Navigate to → WooCommerce → Settings → Shipping → Shipping zones.
- Click Add zone or Edit an existing zone. Here you can then click Add a shipping method.
- Click Add shipping method, or Edit an existing method, to configure the settings.
- Select a shipping method and click Continue.
In this example we use Flat rate, since we want to configure shipping with a cost.

- In the Method title you name the shipping method – preferably similar to the Service you connect in step 8.
- Tax status – Here you set if the shipping is taxable or not.
- Set the Cost of the shipping method.
- ProTeria CloudConnect Service – Choose the shipment service you want to connect in the select box. Defaults to No ProTeria Connection.
- ProTeria – Display Pickup Points – Choose if you want to display All pickup points (including parcel box), Manned pickup points only or Parcel box only selector in checkout when applicable.
Please note that if you also use Klarna Checkout for WooCommerce (KCO) and have checked the box for “Shipping Methods in iframe” in your KCO settings, the “ProTeria – Display Pickup Points” selector will not be displayed. This is because this data is not transferred to Klarna and therefore not possible to display within the iframe.
- ProTeria – Enable Bag on door – Check this box if you want to enable the Bag on door feature when applicable.
- ProTeria – Enable COD – Check this box if you want to enable the Cash on Delivery feature when applicaple.
- Click on the Save changes button.

Shipping class costs
These costs can optionally be added based on the product shipping class.
These settings will only be visible if you have Shipping classes set up.
- “Skrymmande” shipping class cost – Here you enter the shipping cost if the shipment is bulky.
- No shipping class cost – Here you enter the shipping cost if the shipment does not have a shipping class.
- Calculation type – Choose if you want to charge shipping for each shipping class individually or for the most expensive shipping class.

Book and manage shipments
If a shipping method in a WooCommerce order is connected to a ProTeria CloudConnect service, action buttons for creating, printing and viewing shipments are displayed in the ProTeria column on the order overview page.

- The first order (#935915) has a ProTeria CloudConnect service connected to the shipping method (in this case PostNord MyPack Collect), but the shipment has not yet been created.
- The second order (#935908) also have a ProTeria CloudConnect service connected to the shipping method. In this case the shipment has been created.
- The third order (#935905) does not have a ProTeria CloudConnect service connected to the shipping method. Because of this, the order is lacking the ProTeria action buttons.
Book a shipment
Booking a shipment can be done in several different ways.
- Automatically, if order status change to Completed and the plugin setting Create shipment action is set to When WooCommerce order status changes to Completed.
- Automatically, if order status change to Processing and the plugin setting Create shipment action is set to When WooCommerce order status changes to Processing.
- Manually, by clicking on the Create shipment button on the order page.
- Manually, via the Bulk action feature by checking one or several orders and then select Create shipment and click the Apply button on the order page.
- Manually, via the edit/single order page, by clicking the Create Shipment button.

When a shipment have been booked, you are able to print and view the shipment label. In the edit/single single order page you re also able to see the CloudConnect shipment ID.

Remove a shipment
The saved shipment ID can be removed from the WooCommerce order by clicking the X to the right of the CloudConnect Shipment ID.

When a CloudConnect Shipment ID has been removed, you are able to create a new shipment.
Note that removing the Shipment ID in WooCommerce does not cancel or remove the shipment in ProTerias system. This must be done manually in ProTeria.
