We want to be able to add Signature on Delivery and Insurance as an option for Austpost, we dont have e-parcel
I'm not sure how to do this specifically for a particular shipping method, or if you even can, but you might be able to do what you need with options in the Checkout Settings.
/_cpanel/checkout-settings
Here (at the bottom under Shipping rules) you have options such as:
Hide authority to leave (signature required) option
Signature required by default for all orders
Or below that you could a "Custom customer field".
Maybe add a true/false field.
