Discount on U.P.S Shipping

[turtlemanduane]

Hello everyone,
i am looking to get ups rates then give a dollar or % discount to them before showing it to my customers, Example: you ad product to my cart, click on estimate shipping cost, ups gives a next day air rate of $45.00, i want to give a 25% discount to that rate, making the rate shown to customer $33.75 for next day air.

does anyone know if this can be done?

thank you for your time in this matter

Customize the UPS shipping module with something like:

        // EOF: UPS USPS
echo 'I SEE ' . $type . '<br>';
$discount = 0.00;
if ($type == '1DA') {
  $discount = .75;
}
        $methods[] = array('id' => $type,
                           'title' => $this->types[$type],
                           'cost' => (($cost * $discount) + MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING) * $shipping_num_boxes);

What that will do is show you the value of the $type and apply a 25% discount when set to 1DA ...

This let's you see the $type and you can build your IF conditions from that ... later comment out the echo with // in front of it ...

NOTE: your screen will look goofy as heck ... but it is a quick way to see what needs to be customized ...
