To see the section on this point:
From here you can configure your order settings in the store according to the meaning of each feature as follows:
Minimum Order Value: This setting allows you to set the lowest permissible value for How to manage the online store orders. The system will not accept any order below this specified amount. For example, if you set the minimum order value to 200 EGP, the system will reject any order less than this amount.
Maximum Shipping Fee: Here, you can set the maximum shipping fee. This can be because you want to inform the customer that shipping costs will not exceed this amount, or because you can only handle delivery orders with shipping costs below this limit.
Shipping Fee: Specify the shipping fee for products, either as a fixed amount added to the total invoice or as a percentage of the total invoice. The type of fee, whether a percentage or a fixed amount, is determined by the following shipping fee setting.
