Hi,

There is no particular workaround and it is super easy to setup.
Here is how:
Go in the menu System&gt;Shipping methods, click on "new" and select the "manual shipping method".
Then, enter the name you want for that free shipping method, like "free shipping" for example and in the "restrictions" area, enter the threshold amount of 400 in the "minimum price" field.
Enable and save the shipping method.
That's it, you have a free shipping method available on your checkout once the order amount is over 400.
