# Set Up Shipping Costs

During the order import, the connector transfers the **shipping costs** calculated in Shopware as a separate document line. You define whether this line is an **item** or a **G/L account**.

**Settings**

| Field                          | Meaning                                                       |
| ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Shipping Costs Type**        | *Item* or *G/L Account*                                       |
| **Shipping Costs Item**        | Item No. for the shipping cost line (for type Item)           |
| **Shipping Costs G/L Account** | G/L account for the shipping cost line (for type G/L Account) |

**Process**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Choose the type**

Decide whether shipping costs are to be posted as an item (for example "SHIPPING") or as a G/L account.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Enter the reference**

Enter the matching item number or G/L account in the configuration.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Automatic transfer**

During the order import, the shipping amount from Shopware is added automatically as a line (provided it is greater than 0).
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Recommendation:** A dedicated shipping cost item makes reporting and VAT handling easier than posting to a G/L account only.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.solutioo.de/shopware/shopware6_en_us/configuration/set-up-shipping-costs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
