      Hi,

      As I’ve explained in other tickets, We have Printing + Framing fulfillment sites with a single Vendor (the artist/photographer), and we use Admin Fees to pay ourselves (DF) for the print and/or frame costs (fixed amounts per product or variation) + shipping — the rest goes going to the artist/photographer Vendor.

      Shipping is done using “ShipStation Shipping PRO for WooCommerce”, which is working fine, and going to us (DF), which normally is perfect.

      However, we have situations where the artist/photographer needs to sell something alse that they will fulfill themselves or via a 3rd party, like a book.

      We were able to set up a flat rate shipping for this book product under a new BOOK vendor for the artist/photographer, so that works great.

      The problem is we need the shipping for this item to go to that new BOOK vendor.

      In the WCMp Settings/Payment there is the an option to:

      “Transfer shipping charges collected (per product) to the vendor.”

      Is there a way to activate this for a specific vendor or set of vendors?

      I don’t see a setting for this under the WCMp Vendors’ setting in Payment or Vendor Shipping. It seems that if you’re setting Vendor shipping, that vendor should receive the Shipping fees for that item, no?

      It seems like there would/should be a setting for this for each Vendor.

      Is there a setting for this I’m missing?

      Or can it be done via a function?

      Again, we want to generally keep the Admin Fees and Shipping for Printing + Framing fulfillment paid to ourselves (DF)—which is currently working, but for specific vendors, we need an option to set the “Transfer shipping charges collected (per product) to the vendor.”

      Please advise.

      Thanks,
      Michael

      Thank you for getting in touch with WC Marketplace, as per your query we presume, you want to provide shipping to a particular vendor.

      However, we have a setting where we can restrict the particular vendor from getting shipping charges. To achieve that from the dashboard navigate to all users page>> select the particular vendor >> and scroll down to Withhold Shipping to restrict the vendor from shipping charges.
      In case you need further modification kindly let us know.

      So as we only want the one BOOK vendor to get the shipping, are you saying we have to tun on the “Transfer shipping charges collected (per product) to the vendor.” in the main settings and then also set the “Withhold Shipping” setting for the other main Printing + Framing vendor’s user?

      It seems odd that this “Withhold Shipping” setting is in the regular User Profile settings, rather than the Vendor settings, no?

      Okay. That actually seemed to work. It’s a bit of a convoluted setup with where the setting are, but it seems to have done what we need.

      Thanks,
