Conditional shipping option?

Is there a way I can control which shipping options are presented based on the shipping costs of FedEx.

Normally we only offer FedEx for International. Shipping averages around $23. However for some destinations, the shipping can be $50-70. For FedEx costs > $40, I would like the USPS first Class option to appear with the FedEx option. For FedEx costs < $40, only the FedEx option should appear.

The reason for this is that USPS FC international is slow and unreliable and we want to avoid it unless the FedEx cost is simply too high.

Re: Conditional shipping option?

This is what FedEx and USPS shows at 13oz ...

Code:

FedEx (1 x 0.81lbs) (International Priority) $75.18 FedEx (1 x 0.81lbs) (International Economy) $71.47 FedEx (1 x 0.81lbs) (Fedex Ground (2 days)) $19.70 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (First-Class Mail® International Large Envelope) $5.25 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (First-Class Package International Service™) $9.50 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail International® Flat Rate Envelope) $19.95 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail International®) $27.40 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail Express International™ Flat Rate Envelope) $34.95 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail Express International™) $35.48 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail International® Medium Flat Rate Box) $40.95 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail International® Large Flat Rate Box) $53.95 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Global Express Guaranteed® (GXG)) $55.41 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (USPS GXG™ Envelopes) $55.41 United States Postal Service (1 Boxes) (0 lbs, 13 oz) (Priority Mail Express International™ Flat Rate Boxes) $64.95

What Ship To, Ship From and Weight are you testing with?

What do you want to see differently on these costs?

Re: Conditional shipping option?

The weight is always 2lbs or less, and typically 13 oz.
The from is USA, the to is any international destination.
If price > $40, show USPS first class and FedEx option, else show FedEx option on the shopping cart page and on the checkout page.
Said differently, if price <=$40, only show FedEx option

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Try this ...

Customize the file:
/includes/modules/shipping/fedexwebservices.php

with the code in RED:

Code:

$methods = array(); // bof: check FedEx for > 40.00 $_SESSION['usps_first_class'] = 0; foreach ($response->RateReplyDetails as $rateReply) {

Code:

$methods[] = array('id' => str_replace('_', '', $rateReply->ServiceType), 'title' => ucwords(strtolower(str_replace('_', ' ', $rateReply->ServiceType))) . $transitTime, 'cost' => $cost + (strpos($this->types[$rateReply->ServiceType]['handling_fee'], '%') ? ($cost * (float)$this->types[$rateReply->ServiceType]['handling_fee'] / 100) : (float)$this->types[$rateReply->ServiceType]['handling_fee'])); $chk_cost = ($cost + (strpos($this->types[$rateReply->ServiceType]['handling_fee'], '%') ? ($cost * (float)$this->types[$rateReply->ServiceType]['handling_fee'] / 100) : (float)$this->types[$rateReply->ServiceType]['handling_fee'])); if ($_SESSION['usps_first_class'] == 0 || $chk_cost < $_SESSION['usps_first_class']) { $_SESSION['usps_first_class'] = $chk_cost; } //echo 'FedEx Cost Calc: ' . $chk_cost . ' $_SESSION[usps_first_class]: ' . $_SESSION['usps_first_class'] . ' '; // bof: check FedEx for > 40.00 } } } $this->quotes['methods'] = $methods;

Then customize the file:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

Code:

if ($this->usps_countries == 'US' && MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_FIRST_CLASS_FILTER_US == 'True' && preg_match('#First\-Class#i', $type) && $cnt_first > 1) continue; // bof: check FedEx for > 40.00 //echo 'USPS FedEx $_SESSION[usps_first_class]: ' . $_SESSION['usps_first_class'] . ' $type: ' . $type . ' '; //echo 'USPS $type_rebuilt: ' . $type_rebuilt . ' '; if (preg_match('#(first-class)#i', $type_rebuilt) && $_SESSION['usps_first_class'] > 40) { $methods[] = array('id' => $type_rebuilt, 'title' => $title, 'cost' => $cost, ); } // eof: check FedEx for > 40.00 } else { //echo 'MISSING! USPS $type: ' . $type . (in_array($type, $this->typeCheckboxesSelected) ? ' YES' : ' NO') . ' $method: ' . $method . ' $usps_shipping_weight: ' . $usps_shipping_weight . ' $minweight: ' . $minweight . ' $maxweight: ' . $maxweight . ' '; } } // end for $i to $PackageSize if (sizeof($methods) == 0) return false;

Be sure that on the Modules ... Shipping ... that you set a Sort Order on FedEx such as 10 and on USPS a Sort Order of 20 so that FedEx runs before USPS for this to work ...

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Ajeh,

That seems to work...thanks.

When both FedEx and USPS options show, the USPS option is by default selected. Is there a way I can make FedEx the default, or better yet, neither checked?

Also, the message for USPS is:
United States Postal Service (First-Class Package International Service™)

How can I change this to:
United States Postal Service (First-Class 7-20 days)

Can a hyperlink be inserted into that text?

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I spoke to soon.
For the US, we offer only USPS priority. When I checked a US location, the shopping cart no longer listed a value for USPS priority....it was just missing with no rate estimate at all.

This is most likely my fault for lack of full disclosure

USA locations: USPS priority only
International locations: FedEx<$40, then FedEx only. FedEx>=$40, USPS FC and FedEx

Re: Conditional shipping option?

You could use the CUSTOM setting:

Select from the following the USPS options.
note: NEW and OLD will add additional time to quotes. CUSTOM allows your custom shipping days.

CUSTOM

OLD

and show the days by turning on the:

To change the USPS shipping module to show for ALL of the Ship To US and filter on the FedEx conditions, change the IF to read:

Code:

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I think I mis-understood you on what your were saying on Priority ...

If you want USPS International First Class only when FedEx is > 40.00 and for Domestic to show all USPS that you have selected, then use:

Code:

if ($this->usps_countries == 'US' || (preg_match('#(first-class)#i', $type_rebuilt) && $_SESSION['usps_first_class'] > 40)) {

I am not understanding what you are saying about the extra } in the FedEx code ... :lookaroun

Oddly enough it is already set to Custom and the "Display Transit time" is checked.
I searched and found the function mentioned in the usps.php file. But it was not obvious how to customize it.

Code:

function parseIntlTransitTimeResults($Package, $service) { global $logfilename; if (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_DEBUG_MODE == 'Logs') { $fp = @fopen($logfilename, 'a'); } if (isset($this->transittime[$service]) && $this->transittime[$service] == '' && preg_match('#(GXG|International)#i' , $service)) { $time = $Package['SvcCommitments']; $time = preg_replace('/Weeks$/', MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_WEEKS, $time); $time = preg_replace('/Days$/', MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_DAYS, $time); $time = preg_replace('/Day$/', MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_DAY, $time); $this->transittime[$service] = $time == '' ? '' : ' (' . $time . ')'; } // do logging if the file was opened earlier by the config switch if ($fp) { fwrite($fp, date('M d Y G:i:s') . ' -- Transit Time (Intl)' . "\nService: " . $service . "\nSvcCommitments (from USPS): " . $Package['SvcCommitments'] . "\n" . '$time (calculated): ' . $time . "\nTranslation: " . $this->transittime[$service] . "\n\n"); fclose($fp); } }

What is odd, is that the Priority mail transit time is shown, but the first class is not shown.

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Found this section. It does not seem to differentiate between Domestic and International.
First Class International shows no estimate.

Code:

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I could be wrong, but maybe the problem is that there is no international equivalent of the custom replacement above.

The closest thing I could find is this, and I'm at a loss to understand what this even does.

Code:

if (isset($this->transittime[$service]) && $this->transittime[$service] == '' && preg_match('#(GXG|International)#i' , $service)) { $time = $Package['SvcCommitments']; $time = preg_replace('/Weeks$/', MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_WEEKS, $time); $time = preg_replace('/Days$/', MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_DAYS, $time); $time = preg_replace('/Day$/', MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_DAY, $time); $this->transittime[$service] = $time == '' ?

Re: Conditional shipping option?

It has no effect.
I changed the entry for USPS priority and it worked. But that is because this section is only for Domestic.
The section of code just below this domestic section seems to handle international. But it does not have the same "Custom transit time" section

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I traced it down to the if statement below. The "If" statement is not satisfied by a shipment that is using USPS First Class International shipping.
There are three terms in that statement, if I delete isset($this->transittime[$service]) Then the $time= statements below the "If" are executed.

Code:

function parseIntlTransitTimeResults($Package, $service) { global $logfilename; if (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_DEBUG_MODE == 'Logs') { $fp = @fopen($logfilename, 'a'); } if (isset($this->transittime[$service]) && $this->transittime[$service] == '' && preg_match('#(GXG|International)#i' , $service)) {

I just modified the international IF statement rather than introducing this updated module. Seems to be working.

Just to be clear. There are two cases:
1. Domestic shipping - Always and only USPS priority
2. International shipping, Always Fedex, and sometimes also USPS FC if FedEx>$40

It is case #2 that we are discussing. When the FedEx is >$40, USPS FC appears, but USPS FC is always by default selected. I want FedEx to always be default selected.

I don't quite understand why, but in order for the changes to take effect I did have to log out then back in.
Once I tried your test above and saw that it did work, I then retried your code changes to make it default to FedEx. It worked.

But it had a side effect that for the US domestic shipping case, where only USPS priority is offered, USPS was not selected. Hence when Continue was selected, an error is displayed that no shipping was selected even though there was only one choice.

1. Domestic shipping - Always and only USPS priority

So for USPS, only 1 domestic option is checked; Priority. And for USPS international, only USPS FC.
FedEx is also only used for International.

It does seem to be working, but I noticed a side effect. For a domestic customer, the FedEx option is showing up on the checkout page. It has no price, its just the text that reads " FedEx (1 x 0.66lbs)" FedEx is only used for International shipping and should never appear for Domestic.

I backed out the and $rates[$i]['module'] != 'usps') or $size == 1 change and it persists, so it was apparently introduced with previous changes.

At some point I had renamed the usps.php file to usps_xx.php, as a way to make a copy. Somehow, Zen now thinks that the file is called usps_xx. I'm at a loss to understand how this has happened. I'm sure it is something I did some time ago.
Its may be unrelated to this issue, I'm not sure.

The webservices module does not appear to have a version number. But I believe it is 1.3.2

Re: Conditional shipping option?

When renaming modules, you cannot leave them with the .php extension as those are auto loading directories ... instead ues something like:
usps.php_xx

now it will not auto load ...

Re: Conditional shipping option?

If I had to guess, I would say this problem was introduced when the new rate module was released for USPS

USPS Module for Zen Cart v1.3.x thru v1.6
* USPS RateV4 Intl RateV2 - January 28, 2013 Updates to: July 28, 2013 Version J

The current FedEx from numinix's site is Version: 1.4.5 ... you should really consider upgrading to that ...

If you customize the fedexwebservices.php and add the code in RED:

Code:

if (sizeof($methods) == 0) return false; $this->quotes['methods'] = $methods; if ($this->tax_class > 0) {

does it fix this issue?

Yes, it did fix the issue.
I will look into to updating the webservices modules

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Thanks for the update that this worked for you ...

It was a good catch to run into this in FedEx as I see FedEx needs this extra code for the:

Code:

if (sizeof($methods) == 0) return false; $this->quotes['methods'] = $methods;

as well as UPS ... it only happens when the configuration has settings that result in no quotes such as configuring the shipping module to only show for National or International shipping but not both or when the selected options all result in no quote ...

USPS already has this code in it in the July 28, 2013 J5 release so that one does not run into this issue ...

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Ajeh,

I had not noticed it, but the handling_fee which can be set in fedex webservices is no longer working. Not mater what value I set it to, it adds 0. There is likely an issue in your original suggested code modification. I have reposted it below.

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Could you Zip your files:
/includes/modules/shipping/fedexwebservices.php
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

and post them?

I am not seeing the conflict on the handling fee off the top of my head ...

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I do not recognize this version of:
fedexwebservices.php

where and when did you get the original version of this?

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Hard to say. The files are not internally dated or versioned.
I do know that prior to the conditional shipping changes the handling charge was working.

There is a newer version of fedexwebservices, but I have not upgraded to it because the current version has worked fine. Plus I did not want to have to port the changes made to the current file to the new version. It seemed potentially like a lot of pain for no gain.

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I really don't know how this ever worked ...

From the looks of this code, you only have one setting on the Handling Fee and not a number of them, correct?

If so, see what happens if you use this for the $methods[]:

Code:

$methods[] = array('id' => str_replace('_', '', $rateReply->ServiceType), 'title' => ucwords(strtolower(str_replace('_', ' ', $rateReply->ServiceType))) . $transitTime, 'cost' => $cost + ( strpos(MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_HANDLING_FEE, '%') ? ($cost * (float)MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_HANDLING_FEE / 100) : (float)MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_HANDLING_FEE) );

Re: Conditional shipping option?

I am not sure how that change for USPS affected FedEx, but that fix for the FedEx is an educated guess as I really cannot run that code to test it ... :smile:

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Yes, the module only has the one handling charge.
I made the change and sure enough it is working. I tried several test orders and although I could be missing something, it looks good.

Thanks for your help

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Thanks for the update ... I really have no idea how your FedEx is working, other than the methods you are using have not been affected by the many updates to FedEx since that one that you are using was written ...

Thanks for the update that this appears to be working for you ...

Re: Conditional shipping option?

Ajeh,

I was just alerted by a customer that for some reason the USPS shipping calculator is not working for Guam address.
Specifically, if the country is US, the State is Guam, and a Guam ZIP is used, no results are returned.

I'm wondering if our previous modifications have killed this. For example, the USPS module thinks its international and the FedExServices module thinks its domestic, so neither respond. I previously uploaded these two modules in post #56.

Re: Conditional shipping option?

For GUAM as a State of the United States, example:

Other than I am going to have to check later as to why I see Array on some of the days when I have time to check my settings and such ... it seems to be working for both ...
