Shipping by product

I have a variety of products, one of which is too large to be accepted by UPS. All others are ok. Is there a way to set what type of shipping is accepted by product?

Thanks

Re: Shipping by product

I have an issue much like this one.

I have several products that MUST be shipped next day air. Is there any way I can make it so there is only two options for shipping on certian product catagories ie UPS Next Day Air, or Local in Store Sickup?

Re: Shipping by product

You would be best off writing an exceptions table for the products and based on the exceptions table then managing when things can run or not for shipping ...

This can get a bit tricky depending on what specifically you need to do and you may be better off posting in the Commercial Help Wanted if you are not the coder type ...

Re: Shipping by product

That thread is 2 miles long and covers an array of topics and methods of controlling shipping ...

You first need to decide what happens if I have 5 things in the cart that are okay for UPS and then add this 1 product ...

What should happen then?

There's a commercial mod called Advanced Shipper that will do what you need. I've PM'd the link.
