support for multiple location -- how difficult or easy?

Hi! I have a client who wants to use zen-cart to handle his store. The scenario is
something like this:

  1. all customers from new zealand ang australia -- will have to use (only!) Parcelforce Australia (royal mail) -- not sure if parcelforce =is= royal mail (module)

  2. For EU countries -- shipping will be handled only by ParcelForce Worldwide

  3. For US/Canada -- use UPS (only!)

  4. Other regions --- use FedEx

Will zen-cart be able to support these with minimal customization? Please the fact that we usually set the Store Location (zip, etc) as part of the store configuration... --since it will affect the way shipping or tax is computed. However, with th requirements above.. I am not sure what to do at the moment..

Please let meknow.. :)

Re: support for multiple location -- how difficult or easy?

The Shipping modules are either part of Zen Cart or will need to be added from the Downloads or perhaps hunted down a bit ...

Once installed, you can create Zones to control which module shows for what country and that way the right module is used ...

There are several threads on FedEx and UPS XML and Royal Mail that should be able to help you ...
