Default tenant settings

As part of your account-provisioning process, default settings, such as tenant, country, currency, time zone, unit of measure for weight and distance, are applied to your account.

To view the default settings configured for your account, see Get encodings API.

To set values for these settings during your account-providing process, contact IBM® Software Support.

The following are the default settings:

Setting name Default value
Country US
Currency 2
Time zone America or New York
Unit of measure for weight Pounds
Unit of measure for length Inches
Unit of measure for distance Miles

You can modify settings, like the default shipping weight. To modify the default settings for your account, you can use the Define settings API. To view the default settings that you can modify, use the Get settings API.

You can update default shipping weight by using Order Hub UI. To do so, click Edit and modify value for the Default shipping weight field.

You can see the following Optimization considerations on the Tenant configurations page on Order Hub UI.
