Guest Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I can't seem to find anything in the documentation that eludes to what units of measurement OSCommerce uses. Is it grams, ounces, pounds, kilograms, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it grams, ounces, pounds, kilograms, etc? no weight units are used with ms2.2. The weight field is abstract. It's shipping module dependent.

In the event that I decide to use more than one shipping module, is there a way I can differentiate between units? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Thanks for your quick and definitive answer. In the event that I decide to use more than one shipping module, is there a way I can differentiate between units? you could. Assuming your primary shipping module requires pounds and the secondary shipping module requires kilos, you could alter the code of the secondary shipping module when it retrieves the weight to apply the conversion (a mutliplier). So the correct weight will be transfered to the carrier and you will retrieve the accurate shipping cost. You need to do the same for the tare weight.
