Help with Ship Estimator Module


Guest

Recommended Posts

i have just installed Ship Estimator V2.2.2. and the popup window works fine. However, no matter what post code i put in, the estimated shipping cost is always the same. i use Table Rate for my shipping costs (based on $ value). The Estimator is always showing the lowest shipping cost value listed in the table. It is not picking up the different rates. Not sure why this is happening.

The other problem is (and keep in mind i am in Australia, where we have 10% Goods & Services Tax (GST) on our items), that whilst the lowest shipping cost table value is being shown, it is showing without GST included (eg: $18.18 instead of $20.00) - i need it to show inclusive of GST - eg: $20.00 instead of $18.18. When i list the shipping values in the Table Rate, i have to list them as GST exclusive (eg: $18.18 instead of $20.00) - this way, when the customer goes to the checkout it is shown as GST inclusive ($20.00).

I hope this is not too confusing. basically i need the shipping estimator to show shipping cost inclusive of the 10% GST.

Any ideas are greatfully appreciated.

 

P.S - i have set the Admin->Configuration->Shipping/Packaging->User Zones to false.

 

Thanks

Richard

if you use he shipping depends on the value of the cart, of course it will show the same rate for any post code, as you cart have the same value... :lol::lol: think logically.

 

you need to setup shipping rate based on location instead of value of the cart.

Please read this line: Do you want to find all the answers to your questions? click here. As for contribution database it's located here!

8 people out of 10 don't bother to read installation manuals. I can recommend: if you can't read the installation manual, don't bother to install any contribution yourself.

Before installing contribution or editing/updating/deleting any files, do the full backup, it will save to you & everyone here on the forum time to fix your issues.

Any issues with oscommerce, I am here to help you.

yes, you are correct! however, i made a mistake with what i wrote. i meant that what ever product i have in the cart (different price totals), the shipping rate always stays the same. sorry, i should have checked my message a little more thoroughly.
