Some shipping providers offer a Cash On Delivery (COD) option, in which the client pays shipping costs at the time of delivery. When placing an order through the Orders module, COD options do not appear as a standard shipping option. To accommodate a client who wants to pay Cash On Delivery, Customer Service Representatives–or CSRs–can indicate that the client wants to purchase shipping outside of the Seed-to-Sale software.
