Ok I upgraded to the 1.2b version and am now getting this dreaded error:

 

This transaction could not be completed. Please note the error message below.

 

ERROR: cURL ERROR: 60: error setting certificate verify locations

unable to process ship_ground

 

I've checked both fedexdc.php files to make sure we're in production and that the our url is defined at the top. Any thoughts as to where to look now?

With all these people usising this I can't belive no one is using a thermal printer. They are so much faster and easier than printing on plain paper and using the plastic windows.

 

I hate to harp on this but I am still looking for someone using a zebra printer.

 

Thanks guys for your help.

I wanted to be able to print to my Zebra Thermal too but in the meantime I use the free half page FedEx sticky labels they provide for inkjets and laser printers. Labels are no cost and all you have out is ink. Not ideal, but better than using plain paper and windows since the label has adhesive on it. Laser toner is cheap anyway.

Thanks don. I will check into that. Do those also print your invoice on the second half of the page?

 

I tried to get it to do that but failed miserably. It's a matter of the formatting but I think you could do it successfully if you had a mind to. I had tried to set it up so that the invoice was displayed below the label on the fedex page but couldn't get it to line up and display correctly. I gave up and deleted my edited files so I can't even help get you started unfortunately.

Has anybody thought of using the fedex automated label module to create a returns processing solution in order to help make customer returns easier?

 

I dont know...it was just a thought i had! Let me know what you guys think!

 

 

Try the returns system contribution, is this what you were talking about?

1062 - Duplicate entry '605274910000224' for key 2

 

insert into shipping_manifest (delivery_id, orders_id, delivery_name, delivery_company, delivery_address_1, delivery_address_2, delivery_city, delivery_state, delivery_postcode, delivery_phone, package_weight, package_value, oversized, pickup_date, saturday_delivery, hold_at_location, hal_address, hal_city, hal_state, hal_postcode, hal_phone, dim_height, dim_width, dim_length, shipping_type, residential, autopod, cod, tracking_num) values

 

 

anybody have any idea why I would get this error when trying to make the label.

never mind, fixed the above error by doing some db changes..

 

I was wondering, since fed ex automaticly comes twice a week for pickups... is there a way to disable the pickup date in this script?

 

thank you in advance

Why is it that when you click the 'cancel shipment' button it deletes the whole order? What if you just need to cancel the shipment or made a mistake on the label...

 

Deleting the whole order could be a dissaster.

It doesn't you really mangled your install of the contrib it sounds like from this post and your previous posts. I would uninstall the entire contrib and reinstall it or better yet revert to a backup.

ship_fedex.php

by:

// ...mark the order record "delivered"...

 

I changed:

$update_status = array ('orders_status' => 3);

 

to:

$update_status = array ('orders_status' => 2);

 

For some reason it won't show orders that are 'delivered' ... not sure how I messed that up...

Anyone know how we can hide the tracking number in the URL when a customer clicks "Track this package?"

 

I know the tracking number needs to be passed to FedEx, but is there a way to remove it from actually showing up in the URL? It's a fraud control thing, I would like if my customers didn't have the actual tracking number...

 

any thoughts? Thanks!

No its a variable that has to be transmitted to FedEx so you might be able to write something using the fedex tags documentation on the fedex site but you would have to code it all yourself, there is no simple fix or change I do not think.

hmmm... that's a bummer. I'm trying to think of any simple fix at all... even adding garbage to the URL to at least make the number less obvious.

Anyone know a solution to be able to have partial weights get used? From what I can tell it always rounds up to the nearest pound...

 

Actually it does not round up to the nearest pound, but up to the nearest tenth of a pound such as 5.1 pounds. The only time it rounds up to the nearest pound is on 2day, express, and next day shipments. :thumbsup:

I know probably I should ask this question under the Fedex realtime quotes thread but I noticed that thread is not quite up to date. I know there are some experts here on this topic so I'm posting it here.

 

We mainly ship to residential addresses so we just enabled Fedex home delivery option (disabled the ground). Some of my customers have home based business so they put their business name in the Company name field. But when there is a company name in a customer's profile, Fedex automatically sets the delivery option to ground which is disabled in our system. So these customers don't see this option at all. They have to choose UPS ground option which is more expensive than Fedex.

 

Here is the dilemma. We want to keep the company field to better know our customers but we also want them to be able to choose Fedex home delivery option.

 

I like to know if anyone here is having the same problem and what's the best way to solve this problem. My guess is that if the cart doesn't pass company name field to Fedex server then Fedex would treat the address a residential address and therefore show the home delivery option. But I'm not a programmer so I don't know where to change the code.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Wendy

 

Wendy how do you enable/disable ground/home deliveries?

Can anyone please tell me how I would enable Home and Express shipping methods on this module. The default I think is Ground because that is what gets printed on the labels and it is working perfectly fine. I just got an email from FedEx that said basically that I was approved on Step 1 but I needed to send them Shipping labels of all Home, Express, and Ground delivery scenarios and not only the scenarios I would need for my site ( which would be Ground by the way). How would I achieve that? Please help.

 

Here is what Fedex told me to do:

 

Web Integrated Solutions Customer

 

Congratulations! The FedEx WIS Certification Team has approved your

previously submitted operating scenario. The final step in the process is

the highly specific and detailed ??Label Evaluation??.

 

Previously, test-shipping scenarios were provided and by this point you

should have created the associated test shipping labels in preparation for

evaluation. Reminder: You only had to create test labels for the specific

services that are applicable to your situation. The FedEx Ground and Home

Delivery label evaluation team requires 5 test labels for each scenario,

while the Express team requires only 1 label per test case. These labels

will be evaluated for compliancy against FedEx regulatory standards to

ensure no delivery service interruptions occur once your packages enter the

FedEx operational network.

The utmost care and preparation must be made on your part to ensure that

these labels are generated according official FedEx label specifications,

which can be located at the following url:

http://www.fedex.com/us/solutions/wis/pdf/...bels.pdf?link=4 Pay

particular attention to print quality and accidental enlargement/shrinkage

of labels (i.e. scaling). These are the top two reasons why labels do not

pass the label certification process. Once received, the WIS Certification

team will provide evaluation results within 5 business days.

 

Attached to this email is a ??Label Certification Cover Sheet?? which

contains the specific address information for each of our certification

teams. This cover sheet MUST be included with each packet of shipping

labels that you send to the FedEx Label Certification Teams for evaluation.

This may require you to print and populate the cover sheet multiple times

(one for each packet). Failure to include this cover sheet and failure to

populate for all fields on the cover sheet, will significantly delay your

certification timeline.

 

If you have any additional questions or encounter any technical

difficulties/issues, please visit the FedEx Web Integrated Solutions

website (http://www.fedex.com/us/solutions/wis ) and review our technical

and F.A.Q. (Frequently Asked Questions) section. You may also wish to

contact the Web Solutions Support Team via email, [email protected] or

phone, 1-877-339-2774 (Voice Keywords: ??Web Integrated Solutions??).

Wow you really did not take the time to read ANY of this forum and the instructions in the contribution have you? If you'd take the time to even look at the contrib after you install it you'll realize this is all there already and this function you are looking for explains itself.

Has anyone gotten an inkjet printed plain paper label to pass thier inspection?

I have been using this method for at least 2 years now with no problems printing direct out of Fedex, but the inspectors are rejecting my labels because they are printed with an inkjet versus thermal or laser.

I bought 24lb Brilliant White Inkjet Kodak paper, printed with the Photo quality settings and they are still not happy.

 

Second, I saw a post where someone was using free Fedex adhesive labels, but I cannot find them anywhere on the Fedex website under supplies.

I know UPS has them for free, but I rarely use that account anymore, so I don't feel right getting them from there.

Thanks

Steve
