FedEx Shipping Q

[QueenKat]

I need to know if it's possible to have FedEx installed as a shipping option in my store. And if so, how do I do it?

thanks.

Hello,

You go to the downloads link at the top,
go to the shipping modules,

download it,. unzip it and add to your store

No, no error, it's just not calculating shipping costs and the FedEx ground picture comes up with a red X... and there's no ticker box to choose FedEx shipping.

which URL is this on?

The maximum shipping weight for Fedex packages is 150 pounds. (70 pounds for FedEx Home Delivery.)

Ahhhh! Now things are starting to make sense. Total PACKAGE weight! Duh!
Is there any way to set the max package wieght differently for Home or Business? I have plenty of packages between 70 and 150 that get delivered to businesses.

[Merlinpa1969]

you need to set the max weight to 75 Lbs,
the ONLY way to trigger the cheaper ground rate is to make sure that there is a business name in the feild

Thanks Merlin, It all makes sense now.
