For modeling concerns the most important question related to this is:
what does is mean to be FedEx Shippable? (ie what are the actual rules
that determine if something is FedEx shippable or not)
With those rules you can look at the two common options:
1. if the data for the factors in the rules is already in the system
then you can write code to automatically determine if each product is
"FedEx Shippable" or not
2. if the data is not available in the system, and/or there are issues
with maintaining the data reliably, then you can add a flag (indicator
field on the Product entity) so that someone managing products can
manually specify "FedEx Shippable" or not
Those are the two basic paths: automatic, or manual. To decide which
way to go you need to know the rules for determining the outcome. That
is especially important for a particular end-user because different
organizations may have VERY different definitions/rules for something
like this.
