Body: <p>One of the shipping companies that my client will use works by distance.
  This company offers an api where you tell the pickup address and the shipping address. You also specify what type of package to carry (small or medium).
  When I have a complete address, I make the call to the API of this company and it returns the shipping cost to me.</p>
  <p>Given the particularity of this shipping company, I would like to be able to specify the price of the shipping cost without depending on any shipping method of the system itself. Is this possible?</p>
  <p>thanks in advanced</p>
