Zones Table Rate Shipping Module

What settings do you have when you click on shipping module in the right panel of the Modules ... Shipping ...

Yet another THANK YOU for this module!

Hello,
I have successfully installed the module. But, I am having a further query.

Situation:
I have 2 payment modules working. CCAvenues for India and PayPal for Rest of the World.
For the above situation, already 2 zones were made and assigned to respective payment modules.

But, in the above case, I was able to charge variable shipping cost as per country only.
I want to divide India zone, in to 2 sub-zones : State-1 and Other States.

When I went through the steps like said here: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=420018&postcount=3
I got 3 zones in Locations / Taxes > Zone Definitions.
But, I am able to assign CCAvenues only to one instead of two zones of India.

Additionally, I have different shipping rates for various countries of the world, which can be categorized into 5 different zones.
Again, I will be getting more 5 zones, and am facing difficulty while assigning PayPal payment module.

Later one was easy in the bundled Zone Rates Module.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hi all,

Just wondering if any of you could help me with something that is very peculiar regarding of our shipping charge.

Our site has been running for a few years now, and countless orders have been running quite smoothly until today when one customer ordered from New Brunswick (Canada). You see, we have configured our settings to charge $25 on shipping when customer's subtotal is over $100 & up. However, this customer's subtotal is $109, and instead of being charged with $25, she was only charged $18 on shipping, which is our shipping charge rate for subtotal below $100. We have checked all of our configurations, and couldn't find any errors that we might be made on our part. Not only that, but we have other order which were defined in the same zone was charged correctly on shipping. Is there anywhere else that I should check into?

I'm using the current updated Zencart version.

Thank you!!

i cannot create sub zone..please help me

What kind of Zone are you trying to make?

You would start with the Zone Definition to create a name for it, then, click on DETAILS and set the
Country:
Zone:

Then, to have it included in your Zones Table Rate Shipping Module, you would want to go to the Modules ... Shipping ... and save all settings to the Zones Table Rate Shipping Module, as they will all be lost, then do a REMOVE, INSTALL and reconfigure ...

This will add the new Zone Definition to the shipping module ...

• Im very very new, sorry if this has been discussed somewhere else (perhaps, I missed it)
• I'm using 1.39h
• I've been a week trying to find this in FAQs and previous posts in the forums

I cant figure this out:
In my country, post service divide destination zones as follow:

• Asia-Pacific
  Group 1 (country A, B, C, etc)
  Group 2 (country G, H, J, etc) .. up to group 7
• America
  there are 3 groups of countries under this
• Europe
  1 group
• Africa
  there are 3 groups under africa

I had made 17 zone definitions for my international shipping...... but how to put it right?

I have used the zone table for my domestic shipping (33 province, some 400s cities and towns), I thought for intenational shipping I could use zone table rates.. but now i'm stuck: how to do that for 17 groups?

is it posibble to have zone table rates cloned?
please anyone enlighten me. It's been a week I try to find solution to the similar problem in the previous post and on the intrnet in general... I have no idea how to do this :frusty:

Thanks in advance

oh ya, so far, I manage to have table rate clone (http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=1027)
my problem is adding the 5th, 6th, and so on...

i also have the problem like this

Problem when table method is set to weight

Zencart version 1.37
Zone table rate Mod Version 1.1
my product weights are in grams

My problem is that it is not calculating correctly

I have it set the table method to weight i have the zone1 shipping tale set as

1500:4.95,10000:10.00,15000:15.00

now when i select a product with a weight of 1400 and go to the checkout it comes up with

Zones Table Rate (31 x 49.68lbs)
and the shipping charge shows as $153.45 instead of $10

If i set the table method to price it works fine for defined price ranges, but i would like it to work by weight

Any help would be greatly appreciated ?

AND I ALSO SET SHIPPING PACKAGING 6000000

Go to the Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ... and set the Maximum weight to: 20000 and set the Tare Rates to: 0:0 ...

set the Tare Rates to: 0:0 ...

yeh..done this..thank you very much!!!!!!!!

Module is working well but I am having one weird issue.

We allow pickup walk-in as a shipping option. Since installing zone modules, all of our invoices and orders say pickup for shipping even though they selected the zones module shipping, it also shows the correct shipping rate just has pickup for the shipping name.

Has anyone else ran into this problem? Looking for a fix.

Hi All,

How do I add extra Zones. I thought it added new zones based on zone definitions, but I added an extra zone definition and still have just 5 zones. I reinstalled the module, but to no avail. You help's greatly appreciated. :-)

I'm curious. Even though this addon seems to have the capabilities I need, why is it even considered viable when it has been 5 years since it was last updated? Does it even work with 1.5.x?

This was updated in July, 2012 ...

Are you sure you are looking at:

I have my zones all configured correctly for taxes and for shipping, but I have one more issue I'd like to resolve. Not really so much an issue, but more a cause for confusion to the end user. On step 2 of 3 payment information I want to change the wording to something more easily understood WITHOUT changing the names of the zones as defined in Zencart. Example:

Your Total

$549.95

Sub-Total:$16.95

Zones Table Rate (Canada GST only - ship zones 1):$28.35

5.0% GST + 5.0% GST on shipping:$595.25

Total:$595.25

The description in red, is there a way to configure the module to display a different field and drop the Zones Table Rate prefix? I mean, the buyer doesn't need to scratch their head over this, I just want it to say shipping! :) TIA!

We currently have an osCommerce website which is now getting a bit long in the tooth and are considering changing to ZenCart rather than rebuilding using osCommerce (as v3 is not yet ready for Prime Time), as it seems to offer much more configuration without having to resort to extensive code modifications for what should be functions available from within the admin section.

To that end, I currently have version 1.5 installed on my (localhost) development server and am going through all the configurations/modules, to determine that it will actually be a better option. I have only just started this process, so this is the first of possibly several areas that I might hit obstacles. We are based in Jersey (Channel Islands, GB - [NOT UK]) and have, currently, 20 different shipping zone tables thus:

**Shipping Modules: **
COLLECT from warehouse 0 > (no shipping)
Jersey Post/Royal Mail: Domestic Packet 30 > (up to 2kgs + not more than 610mm)
Jersey Post/Royal Mail: Domestic Parcel 40 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
FREE Home Postal Delivery 4 > (any weight + over certain value)
Home Evening Delivery 7 > (fixed rate)
Jersey Post / Royal Mail: International Packet 80 > (up to 2kgs)
Jersey Post / Royal Mail: International European Packet 90 > (up to 2kgs)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone A 100 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone B 110 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone C 120 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone D 130 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone E 140 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone F 150 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone G 160 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post / ParcelForce: International - Standard Parcel Service Zone H 170 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post: Local Packet 10 > (up to 2kgs + not more than 610mm)
Jersey Post: Local Parcel 20 > (over 2Kgs &/or over 610mm)
Jersey Post/Royal Mail: Special Delivery 500 50 > (up to 10kgs + not more than 610mm)
Jersey Post/Royal Mail: Special Delivery 1000 60 > (up to 10kgs + not more than 610mm)

However, I can't quite figure out how I can add all these zone tables to the existing 3 zone rates, as there seems to be no button to add additional zones.

As far as the Tax zones are concerned, we have 3:

Jersey GST - 5%
UK VAT - 20%
ROW - 0%

which have all been set up in the Zone Definitions section and are all showing green.

In order to get this to work in osCommerce, it has required extensive code modification and additional files, as it is necessary for the system to select & present the available shipping options to the customer based on:

Country Code
Weight
Length (over 610mm must be Parcel [zone rates])

In osCommerce, I had to add a lot of custom code to get all this to work as, additionally, each product item has to have an extra field to designate whether it is a "long-item" i.e. over 610mm.

If anyone could give me some directions on getting the different zone rates set up in ZenCart in a better manner than our current osCommerce method, I would be extremely grateful. Once I have that sorted, I can start looking at the "attributes" situation, vis-a-vis separate part-code and weight for each attribute.

Many thanks,
Steve

I've tested this module on ZC 1.5.1 and works fine.

I have successfully duplicated the zonetables module so i now have zonetables and zonetables2. Works OK in 1.5.1.

However, I would like to disable zonetables1 when the weight is less than .5. How would I go about doing this?

I found the code below in another thread, but not sure if this is what to use or where to put it in the zonetables.php file.

Thanks for any tips!

Try using this to test the cart for weight:
Code:

global $cart;
// disable if product weight is greater than .5 in cart
if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG == false && $_SESSION['cart']->show_weight() > .5) {
$this->enabled = false;
} else {
$this->enabled = true;
}

That would go under the code:

      // disable only when entire cart is free shipping
      if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
        $this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
      }

[B]// disable if product weight is less than .5 in cart
if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG == false && $_SESSION['cart']->show_weight() < .5) {
  $this->enabled = false;
}
