I'm confused by the way Zone Rates estimates are being calculated.
I have set the following:
Module>Shipping
- Calculate Method: by weight.
- Zone 1 Shipping Table: 0.5:3.00,1:4.50,1.5:6.00,2:7.50,3:9.00,4:10.5,5:12.00,10:30.00
Configuration>Shipping/Packaging:
- Package Tare (both for small to medium and larger packages): 0
- Enter the maximum package weight you will ship: 10 kg
I have tried this out with an item weighing 0.9 kg and increased the quantity +1 unit at a time. All goes fine until I input 12 units, which amount to 10.8 kg total. The total shows $60.00 (2 boxes of 10kg I suppose). I would have thought that it would total $34.50, which is $30.00 (one box of 10kg) + $4.50 (one box of 1 kg).
If I increase the maximum package weight to 11kg, then the total becomes $35.
How does the estimator works?
Thanks much!
