This article provides a step-by-step guide to creating a rate that applies a standard tiered fee for each individual pick. For further guidance, you can also watch the instructional video here.Â

To discern the difference between Count and Count Less Other UOMs, consult our article on Understanding Count vs Count Less Other UOMs.ÂWhat does the above charge method mean?
This means that we're only going to count the individual units for this order that do not fall within a package, inner pack, master pack, or pallet—only individual primary units outside of any one of those other units of measure.
 - On the Tiers section, select Standard Tiering. Click Next.
- Â Follow a sample guide below to understand how standard tiering works. Click the + icon to add another tier.Â
Please note that the operator for each tier is locked. You can only edit the charge amount for each tier and set the value for your 1st and 2nd tier. The value you enter in the To field of 2nd tier will serve as the parameter for your last tier.
 - On the Rate-Level Rules section, you can click Skip.Â
- On the Would you like to save this rate window, click Yes, Save.
-  You will get a message stating ‘Complete.’  On the same window, there is a prompt asking if you would like to add this to a rate sheet. Select Yes or No.
