Sending orders containing dangerous goods

If you tick the Dangerous Goods box manually in the order details page, the default dangerous good selected in the settings page will be applied.

1. Navigate to Settings > Rules.
2. Create a new rule with any condition. E.g: SKU equals 12345.
3. Select the action Set Dangerous Goods Type.
4. Select Value > UPS.
5. In the field next to Value, enter the identification number (UN Number/Commodity ID number) of the dangerous good you’ve set up in Starshipit.
