Stop losing money on unexpected vendor shipping charges. Learn how Framing POS automatically calculates close corner shipping and oversize fees on every work order.

Managing shipping costs and unexpected oversize fees from moulding vendors can be one of the most challenging aspects of pricing custom framing accurately. In this tutorial video, we demonstrate how Framing POS eliminates the guesswork by automatically calculating close corner framing shipping fees and oversize surcharges right inside your work orders.

The step by step demonstration walks you through entering your vendor’s specific base zip code, minimum fees, and oversized pricing tiers. Once these rules are saved in your system, Framing POS takes over the heavy lifting. As you build a work order and adjust the dimensions for a customer, the software instantly updates the shipping costs and applies percentage based penalties if the frame exceeds your vendor’s footage thresholds. This ensures that your retail pricing remains accurate and your business never absorbs an unexpected shipping penalty.
