Zones Table Rate Shipping Module

[yannisc]

I installed the 1.1 version of your module, and I created 3 new zone definitions.

But when I go to admin>modules>shipping, there is this php error:

Warning: constant() [function.constant]: Couldn't find constant MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONETABLE_ZONE_2 in /home/hawkfire/public_html/store/includes/modules/shipping/zonetable.php on line 82

Warning: constant() [function.constant]: Couldn't find constant MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONETABLE_ZONE_3 in /home/hawkfire/public_html/store/includes/modules/shipping/zonetable.php on line 82

Warning: constant() [function.constant]: Couldn't find constant MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONETABLE_ZONE_4 in /home/hawkfire/public_html/store/includes/modules/shipping/zonetable.php on line 82

what Am I doing wrong?

Wat version of ZC are you using?

[trillian]

I tried inserting the zonetable.php files per the directory structure and the result is that when I opened my shipping module in the admin area the entire admin section is corrupted.

There were no instructions with the zip file.

Is there some other step required that I missed ?

(running ver 1.3.7)

Hi Gang!

This might be exactly the module I am after. PLease correct me if I am wrong. Here is the scenario:

1. The Store is located in USA but re-sells products directly from manufacturers - one located in Malaysia and one in the US. The big target is USA but also shipping worldwide )at least for the Malaysian manufacturer.
2. The Malaysian manufacturer is using DHL to ship worldwide. The USA-based is using FedEx and at least for now, it is only shipping to the USA.
3. The Malaysian manufacturer has products that currently need to be looked up manually in a DHL rate table based on rates. The USA based one has a fixed price per item.

Would this module be suitable for this?

Thanks a lot!

i am not sure about DHL table rate. But it can applies to most shipping companies.

Hi Surf7!

Thanks for the response. I did install your mod without a problem. But now I am not sure how to actually use it... :-)
In fact to be even more confused - it seems like Zone Rates does the same thing as Zone Table Rates... I am not sure if I get the difference.

I was able, however to set up two different shipping table rates for two different countries in "Zone Rates"...

Thanks!

Installed and configured successfully this very useful module.
I would like to remove in shipping estimator the displayed nr of packages and weight of package :

Example :

" DPD Global Door-to-Door Delivery (1 x 4.50Kg) (Global Express 1-3 days)
"
to be

"DPD Global Door-to-Door DElivery : Global Express 1-3 days"

the" (1 x 4.50Kg)" is generated by the script and I would like to deactivate.
What I have to change in scrips?

Thank You!

Can I set up table rates for individual items instead of zones?

Great Module and use it all the time

However with shippers now getting a bit snarky over bulky items it has created a problem for us and I dare say quite a few others.

This module relies totally on weight. Is there a way to to get it to convert volume to weight.

I see it working as such

If a product has it's height x length x width set it calculates the corresponding "determined" weight and if higher it uses this as the basis for calculating the shipping cost.

Example using beans for a bean bag

Actual weight is 1.5 kg
Length 120cm
Width 20cm
Height 20cm

This gives a cubic measurement of 0.048cubic metres. If a shipper calculates a cubic metre as being 200kg this would make the determined weight 9.6kg and that is what they would charge.

They current module would need an alteration to
1. Determine if volume measurements exist for the item
2. If they do calculate the "determined weight"
3. Use the determined weight instesd of the physical weight

The admin module would also require a volume weight field for working this out. ie 1 volume unit = xxx physical weight unit.

A slight alternative is doing this at the end of the order - that is all item volumes are calculates at the end of the order and depending on which is higher - the physical weight or the determined weight this is used for the shipping calculation.

Any ideas on this one?

Thanks
