We want to add some special logic to add a shipping or handling charge for certain dates where the charge price is based on weight.

What is the best way to add a shipping or handling charge to a basket programmatically?

I'm thinking of adding a basket item and just setting the type to Shipping or Handling, then setting price and weight to 0, but didn't know if this is the correct way or what fields must be set if creating a basket item using simply new BasketItem().

This is what I am thinking but please let me know if this is the best method or if there are additional properties that must be populated.

Quote:

BasketItem shippingChargeItem = new BasketItem();
shippingChargeItem.Name = "CustomShippingCharge";
shippingChargeItem.OrderItemType = OrderItemType.Shipping;
shippingChargeItem.Price = CalculateShippingCharge(basket, dateToCalculate);
shippingChargeItem.Weight = 0;
shippingChargeItem.Quantity = 1;
basket.Items.Add(shippingChargeItem);

I think you also need to add the following line:
Code:
shippingChargeItem.Basket = basket;
