BETA USPS and UPS

[Ajeh]

** BETA ONLY ** BETA ONLY ** BETA ONLY **


One of the problems with USPS and UPS is obtaining quotes for US Islands and Territories regardless of how the Customer sets up their Shipping address.

For Example, a Customer may setup Shipping for Guam as
Country: United States
State: Guam
City: Yigo
Zip Code: 96929

Or, set it up as:
Country: Guam
State: Yigo
City: Yigo
Zip Code: 96929

This will cause issues where only one or the other shipping module will work.

Another issue is that the 5 digits allowed by USPS changes based on National and Internation shipping and forces some shops to edit the USPS shipping module to manually change the code to address this issue. This is now built into the Beta version.

Now, these two modules also allow for separate Handling Fees for National and International Orders, again these are based on the translation of Countries and States that conflict on shipping that is part of the United States.

It would be helpful if some of the more adventurous members of our forum tested these two modules and tried to break them.

Please test these modules and report your results and if you have any issues with them as a guest or customer on your sites.

Of particular interest is testing for shipping to:
Guam
Puerto Rico
Northern Mariana Islands
Virgin Islands US
American Samoa
Micronesia, Federated States of
Federated States of Micronesia
Palau

as either the Country or as the State when the Country is the United States.

Any other issues would also be appreciated.

Thank you for your help in testing these BETA versions of the UPS and USPS shipping modules.
