4. With the new row still selected, make the following settings at the bottom of the page:
   • Shipping carrier – Select the shipping carrier the constraint applies to.
   • Carrier service – Select the carrier service the constraint applies to.
   • Mode – Select the mode of delivery where the constraint applies.
