3. Create rules for shipping countries & their areas. a) In this step, we are creating a rule for the states of India i.e. "Arunachal Pradesh" & "Uttar Pradesh".

Look at the fields of Delivery method & their meanings: 1. Shipping Method In this field, select your shipping method (for example - Express, Instant, 1-Day, 2-Day, etc.) Here we are choosing the method "Express".

2. Shipping Cutoff Time(24 hours) Shipping Cutoff Time is basically the last time on which your applied delivery logic will work. Here this method will work before 11: 00 am. After 11: 00 am this method will expire & another method will work for the added areas.

3. Shipping Min Day Through this column, you can add the minimum time in which a customer will receive an order. We have set the minimum day 0.6 for delivery method express. Here 0 stands for same day & 6 defines the number of hours.

4. Shipping Max Day Through this column, you can add the maximum time in which a customer will receive an order. And it is the final delivery time. We have set the maximum: 0.6 days for delivery method express.
