# Set up Budget Control
## Review a Shopify order when its estimated shipping fee exceeds the percentage limit set for that store.
### Enable Budget Control
1. Go to **Store Integrations**.
2. Open the relevant Shopify store.
3. Find **Budget Control** and select **Enable**.
4. Select **Edit** beside Threshold.
5. Enter the maximum shipping-cost percentage and select **Save**.
****
### Set the threshold
Select **Edit**, enter the percentage limit and save the setting.
****
**Example:** If the order total is HKD 100 and the threshold is 50%, the order requires review when the estimated shipping fee exceeds HKD 50.
### Review an order
#### 1. Find the affected order
Open **Actions Required** and select an order with the message that its estimated shipping fee exceeds the shipping-cost limit.
****
#### 2. Review the cost
Compare the **Estimated Shipping Fee**, **Shipping Cost Limit** and **Excess Amount**.
#### 3. Approve and confirm
Select **Approve**. Check the percentage and excess amount in the confirmation window, then select **Confirm**.
#### 4. Submit the approved order
After the excess amount shows as **Approved**, select **Submit to Warehouse**.
#### Important notes
- The setting applies only to the Shopify store where it is enabled.
- The check takes place during the initial order submission.
- Orders without an available Shopify order total cannot be evaluated using this percentage rule.
