Please note! Magento version 1.3.2 or higher is required to use this extension. Please make sure your Magento install is version 1.3.2 or higher before installing. Also note that this is NOT a per product shipping module.
Also note that if you wish to install the latest 1.5.0 version of this extension, you must set your Prefered State to Beta under the settings tab of your Magento Connect Manager. If you do not it will install the older 1.4.7 version.
Adds ability to specify a custom shipping rate and title when creating a new order in backend. This allows you to utilize any shipping method and price you want, even if it's not available to customers on the front end.
The extension is based on code found in this thread: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/14264/

After uninstalling this extension through your Magento Connect Manager, you may have to run the following SQL query on your database. This can be done through phpMyAdmin or equivalent. This may only be necessary in Magento 1.3. I have not found any issue with Magento 1.4 and leaving this info in the database, but your results may vary.
bc. delete FROM core_config_data WHERE path like "carriers/customshippingrate%";
