Zones Table Rate Shipping Module

[manzili]

hi,

i'm using zencart ver. 1.3.8.

i've installed the module + it gave the yellow light that based on the previous posts- just ignore it + it will still work.

my problem is, the shipping module not even appeared as one of the option of shipping method in choosing the shipping method process.

i've divided it to 2 zones: west msia + east msia with respective states on each zone.

PLEASE, if anyone can help..!!

Hi All,

Just trying to figure out what this mod actually does and if it will do what I need...

I have ZC 1.3.8a

I currently have 3 Zones set up.

I want to have a different table rate for each zone.

Is that what this mod does?

Thanks.

Hi manzili, i think i am having the same problem as u. Can you tell me how did u resolve ur problem?

Adding the Zone doesn't "show" in the checkout but rather "filters" when the module displays based on the address ...

If the address is within the Zone, then the module will show ... if it is not part of the Zone, then the module will not show ...

In the address details filled in by buyer, they only fill in Street Address, Address Line 2, City, State/Province, Post/Zip Code, and Country.

Which detail in the address that will be used to match the Zone?

The matching zone_id and country_id are used from the address_book on the fields:
entry_country_id
entry_zone_id

ajeh, thanks for ur reply but i still don't know how to link the state to the zone filter. I think I am giving up. Anyway, I came out with an idea to spilt malaysia to Malaysia Peninsular and Malaysia East in the Countries. So i guess this way i can just use the zone rate module since buyer must select whether they are in malaysia peninsular or malaysia east in their address.

Hey.. I have finally figured out what was wrong with my zone table rate. After setting up the zones, zone definition and installing the module, I need to go back to the address to update the address. After the 'Zone' setup, the column to insert State changed to a drop list which was the zones i defined in the 'Zones'. From there the shipping module can filter the address according to the State(ie. zone added)
