Shipping an Item a configurable carrier

Hello All, or particular Ajeh :-)

Can there be set on the Item configure page PLEASE
a way to only allow certain carriers for that Item.


I.e. a selectable check box list.

Ship via :
ALL
USPS Parcel
USPS Priority
FedEx Ground
UPS Ground

and such so that only certain shipping methods are available for the item.

even if other items are with it in checkout that if a restricted item is present it will still limit the shipping carrier options.
we just got hosed shipping to Hawaii via parcel post and it at least has to be Priority for the tracking info, so we lost $40 on the shipping :-(


Please any help...
Thx,
Erick

What happens if a Product is set to UPS but not FedEx and mixed with a Product set for FedEx and not UPS? :unsure:

Re: Shipping an Item a configurable carrier

both should show as each would be able to ship that way so both options would then show as a delivery choice in checkout.


Think I just might slim it down to only ground for FedEx and UPS and only have priority mail for the confirmation number and just turn off parcel post. we did have it on as it is cheaper and we are trying to get the cheapest shipping to show and not over charge, but it is a hard thing shipping, sometimes a bit over and mostly a loss.

Re: Shipping an Item a configurable carrier

You might need someone to write this as it can get complicated on the shipping ...

There is nothing, at this time, built into Zen Cart for anything like this ...
