Delivery Method Does Not Show All the Carriers

Imagine that you have multiple carriers, but when you are in need of selecting the necessary one, you might not see it in the drop-down in POS. Are there any additional settings or actions necessary? Yes, but not in POS itself, but in the Carriers section.

For the carriers to be visible and available for selection while creating orders, they need to have price ranges indicated. If you have some specific delivery parameters, for example, some carriers deliver only smaller items and others specialize in more expensive ones, you can indicate it.

Please note, in case you have more than one shop, you must configure payment methods for each of them separately.
