If an order is not within the specified price range and your customer has specified cash on delivery as the payment method, then your customer sees an error message when trying to complete the order.

For example, if you already have an expedited shipping rate of Rs. 30.00, and you want to add a cash on delivery fee of Rs. 10.00, then you can create an "Expedited Shipping + Cash on Delivery" rate of Rs. 40.00.
