Guest Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 Is there a way for osCommerce to integrate with UPS so that the actual shiping information is sent to UPS and a shipping order is created, tracking number is generated attached to your UPS account. I would imagine that from the orders report in osCommerce there would then be a link to click on to print the label/shipping receipt. This would greatly cut down on manpower to ship an item because it would be as easy as printing the premade UPS label and slapping it on a box. Otherwise, you would have to enter all of that information at UPS's website and then print.
Guest Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Hello, I am currently experiencing the same issue with shipping. I wanted to integrate it with worldship. Were you able to do this. I as well want to streamline the process. I was told a csv file needs to be generated by os commerce and exported to UPS worlship where all of our required features are available. Have you been successful in doing this. Please let me know because my developer was telling me he doesnt know how to create the csv file.

In fact, not many shopping cart programs that I have seen do this either.
Guest Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I haven't gotten any further on this problem. In fact, not many shopping cart programs that I have seen do this either. I'm testing both osCommerce and CubeCart. CubeCart is capable of pulling accurate shipping rates, however it does have it's limitations too, that is why I'm testing osCommerce as well.

cannuck1964 Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 Have a look at the UPS service QuantiumView. I believe this will help you with the issues you need to implement. cheers, Peter M Peter McGrath ----------------------------- See my Profile (click here) for more information and to contact me for professional osCommerce support that includes SEO development, custom development and security implementation
pulp2 Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 I am a lost cause... I'm looking for a way to not only to accurately calculate UPS shipping in the shopping cart, but also to add a tracking number to the confirmation email. I'm really confused as to which contribution or multiple-contributions or ups tool or tools to use to best integrate these features the best. I’ve been searching the UPS site and I can’t figure out which tools I need there exactly or how to integrate. I can't seem to find a contribution that integrate UPS in a way that calculates shipping in the shopping cart. Maybe I just overlooked it? On the UPS site I see there is quantum view, but I can't find any instructions on how to integrate or how to get started. There is also something called connect ship but this doesn't have any integration instructions either. Is there anyone who has walked this path and can give me some direction? Thanks!
cannuck1964 Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 Quantium View is an additional service offered by UPS which is a csv or XML file with all of the order info contained within it, ie what has been picked up by them, what was delievered etc. I used this file (XML) and updated the osC system based on the contents. thus I allowed the customers to see the tracking number (linked to track where the package is) as well it dealt with all of the other status parts (processing, delived). All of this was custom built and I am not sure if there is anything available here for it or not. There is documentation at the UPS site, but I believe you need to have an account there with them to obtain it. cheers, Peter M Peter McGrath ----------------------------- See my Profile (click here) for more information and to contact me for professional osCommerce support that includes SEO development, custom development and security implementation

Not currently. UPS likes to do everything "in-house" so this is functionality is just not available/possible at this point in time. You can export order data to WorldShip - that's about all.

You can export order data to WorldShip - that's about all. I would like to somehow assist with the attempts to integrate with UPS Worldship. I have integrated various systems with worldship. I know that osCommerce uses a MySWL DB and you would have to install the MySQL ODBC Driver. From this point I believe you could locate the table where the orders are stored. I normally use Microsoft Access as a Passthrough DB. You would then be able to uses Worldships Keyed Import function to pull shipping information using a unique id (ie. invoice, sales order number.) Do or Do Not, there is no try.
