Where in the Modules ... Order Totals ... are you seeing a Handling Fee? :unsure:

The Handling Fees are in the Modules ... Shipping ... on each of the Shipping modules ... but you have me a bit lost here ...

Granted, I am only on my first cup of coffee and could be missing something ... but whatchu talk'n about willis? :blink:

Does this help?

I see you are using some sort of Add On for your Handling Fee and not the Handling Fee on the individual Shipping modules ...

Do you know what add on you are using?

Hey everyone sorry if I'm reviving this old thread but it covers the basis of my question. I'm rocking v 1.3.9h and im looking to do the % based handling fee for usps. I tried changing the code to what was suggested but to no avail.

So would there be any type of other fixes you guys would know of. By chance try and reply as soon as you can, as this is one of the last steps I have left to setting up the site. Thanks for you time and answers in advance.

What did you enter for the Handling Fee on USPS ...

What did you change the code to on the USPS shipping module? :unsure:

Well I figured it out:clap:

The finished result was two fold. For our Free Shipping we added a 3% charge for PayPal transactions and $2.75 handling charge to cover shipping overhead. For our USPS module (priority, express, international shipping and PayPal charges we added a 5% charge plus $1.70.

No need to have an additional "Handling Fee" on the Shipping Module, this formula by-passes that.

USPS Shipping:
/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

insert " +($order->info['subtotal'] * .05 + 1.70) into Line 298
where ($order->info['subtotal'] is your subtotal price * percent + overhead shipping cost.


Orginal:
'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING) );

Updated:
'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + ($order->info['subtotal'] * .05 + 1.70) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING) );

Free Shipping:
/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/freeoptions.php

insert "($order->info['subtotal'] * .03 + 2.75) +"
where ($order->info['subtotal'] is your subtotal price * percent + overhead shipping cost.


Orginal:
'cost' => MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEOPTIONS_COST + MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEOPTIONS_HANDLING)));

Updated:
'cost' => MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEOPTIONS_COST + ($order->info['subtotal'] * .03 + 2.75) + MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEOPTIONS_HANDLING)));

Hope this helps anyone else out there.

Thanks for the update that you have this working now and how you did it ... :smile:

Hey, I'm looking and I don't see any handling fee under this module. Is this an add on?
