SCA Shipping Item: I've created a shipping item which has a SHIPPING RATE per lbs ($0.5) which works fine. I also add HANDLING RATE (flat rate $75). If the basket items weight 3 lbs Id expect the Shiping cost to be $76.50 (3x0.5+75) but it only shows $1.50 Can SCA cater for Handling costs?

Handling fees do work in SCA, yes
You should refer to the documentation about this, but there are some common ‘gotchas’ that people forget to do: • Go to Setup > Accounting > Shipping and enabling CHARGE HANDLING SEPARATE FROM SHIPPING • If doing item-based handling fees, you must edit the item record for the item and add a value in Sales/Pricing > Shipping > Handling Cost ◦ Note that this field appears to be a flat value, and doesn’t seem to support multi-currency • This item should be an inventory item • You probably want to do this to the parent matrix item record so that the handling fee rolls down to all child items • You must set up all shipping items that you want the handling fee to affect ◦ Go to Lists > Accounting > Shipping Items and edit every shipping item ◦ Once CHARGE HANDLING SEPARATE FROM SHIPPING is enabled, a HANDLING RATE subtab will appear on the shipping items ◦ If your goal is to charge additional handling for specific items, then you will need to enable HANDLING--PER ITEM ◦ If you don’t want to charge fees for other items (generally speaking) then you can set the default value to 0.00 ◦ In the SHIPPING AND HANDLING RULES subtab, select an appropriate tax schedule for handling fees
