+The system needs to have the following data in order for eStack to automatically create \*\*Shipments \*\*for **Channel Orders**:
+
+**'Postage Classes'**
+
+**'Packaging Classes'**
+
+**'Your Packaging'**
+
+We are setting Avery as the global default Shipping Carrier because the default Avery template will be just an address label. This type of address only label has no postage or shipping fees, and is not affected by domestic or international. Thus, ths is the best for onboarding new users.
+
+The user can change their default Shipping Carrier to EasyPost or ShipStation (as of July 2024)
+
+**Rule Matching Process**
+
+1. If order has only one SKU we will use SKU Level Shipping Connector. 
+2. Check the Shipping Rules - see if anything matches. If no match...
+3. Use SKU level Shipping connector; if none set.....
+4. Use the global default (Avery or user set default)...
+5. In the event of multiple SKUs with different (or no) carrier settings, use the Shipping Connector for the SKU with the highest sale price.
+
+On **P&P Change Carriers popup**, add 'Your Packaging (optional)' drop-down to select 'Your Packaging'.
+
+**Easypost Packaging Classes** that require 'Your Packaging' in order to know the dimensions (weight we have from the SKU-level): Parcel
+
+**ShipStation \> Stamps.com Packaging Classes** that require 'Your Packaging' in order to know the dimensions (weight we have from the SKU-level): Package, Large Package (any side \> 12"), and Non Rectangular Package
+
+\*\* For Fedex and UPS Shipping Classes\*\* , when user selects **Packaging Class type 'Package'** we need to require the user to select 'Your Packaging', so we can pass the packge weight and dimensions. When the user selects Packaging Class type 'Package', assign the SKU level 'Your Packaging'; if not preselected, use the Global Default 'Your Packaging'.
+
+Also, display the 'Your Packaging' dimensions (Length, Width, and Height) in editable fields like [here](https://erwan.estack.com/your-packaging/1/edit) (screenshot below), populating the Length, Width, and Height from the selected 'Your Packaging'. The user can change those prepopulated dimanesions. After the word 'Height', add the text '(inches)'
