Applying Discounts to FedEx® Rates
NetSuite enables you to display discounted shipping rates to your customers if you receive discounts from FedEx or you want to offer a discount to your customers.
Discounted FedEx rates can be offered when you use real-time rates. To learn more, see FedEx Real-Time Rates (U.S. and Canada).
To offer free shipping, use promotions or create a shipping item with a flat rate of $0.00. Do not set the discount rate on an existing shipping item to 0. To learn, see Promotions and Free Shipping With an Item.
