## Calculation

```
AVG(order_carriers.shipping_cost_tax_incl) for order_carriers whose id_order is a paid-state order in window.
```

PrestaShop order classification uses the order-state machine: paid = `current_state` in (2 Payment accepted, 3 Processing, 4 Shipped, 5 Delivered, 9 Backorder paid, 11 Remote payment accepted); shipped/fulfilled = (4, 5); refunded = (7, 15); cancelled = (6); payment error = (8). Read live from the PrestaShop Webservice API and snapshotted nightly into the Nerve Centre KPI store.
