Irin Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) @@Irin Sorry - not sure what to tell you. Perhaps undo those changes made for the old fedex1 fix?... back to a default osc state..., then maybe fedexwebservices might work?? Really just guessing here. Oh, well... Thanks for your help, Dave. I'll wait, may be somebody will come with the solution. The two modules are popular, so there must be somebody else besides me having the same problem as I do.

jim21 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Yes confusing question - but this module will calculate based on the orders destination, weight, and per the stores configuration. This is not a flat rate shipping module. The module also recognizes UPSXML's "ready to ship" and the deprecated Fedex Real Time Quotes "products ship seperate" when calculating rates. Sorry for the confusion and Thank you for the reply. I am using the previous FedEx Realtime Quotes, and it's not giving us accurate info, so I really need to move to this module asap. Our store offers only 1 shipping option, and you previously confirmed this module can be configured for that. We also ship everything in 1 size box and 1 standard weight, so I need to be able to configure the module to calculate rates based on a 10x10x10 box at 10lbs, regardless of how many items the customer has in the cart during checkout. Is it possible to configure those variables as static values? Thanks again for your time and info, -jim (DFW) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for your time and info, -jim (DFW) The box dimension wont be relevant - as we assign "your packaging", and your not over-sized. I suppose you could custom code to use a static value for weight, but this is contrary to the whole purpose of this module. Why do you even need this module if your charging a flat rate to every order? that doesn't make sense. Quote -Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I have a customer who is using all three services, FedEx, UPS (UPSXML) and USPS as choices for shipping. I have FedEx Web services 9.4.2 installed and working fine. One of the things that they have asked about was the ability to tack on insurance for the shipment for FedEx, like they can for the other 2 modules. I see that the WSDL has mentions of insurance, but not sure in what capacity. Would it be possible to add an insurance option to this module?

Roaddoctor Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 You will find in the code the following 3 sections - you will need to modify for your insurance preferences. There may be more needed to make it work... I would test with the existing and see how it goes. I've never tried to enable it myself. @[member='definedmedia']('MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_INSURE', 0); $request['RequestedShipment']['TotalInsuredValue']=array('Ammount'=> $this->insurance, 'Currency' => $_SESSION['currency']); function _setInsuranceValue($order_amount){ if ($order_amount > (float)MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_INSURE) { $this->insurance = sprintf("%01.2f", $order_amount); } else { $this->insurance = 0; } } Quote -Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetSet27 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 We are using the latest release of this contribution on osCommerce V2.3.1 Our rates are no where near the rates on the FedEx website. We have not added any handling fees or percentage increase fees the rates are just flat out wrong. How can this be fixed? I don't know how to link to it, so let me re-post a message I wrote on this topic last June. This has never been addressed, and we are still having the same problem. Maybe it's the same as your problem? = = = = = = = = Many thanks for this contribution! After installing Fedex Web Services 9 on our site (osc 2.2), it seemed to be working fine. But just to be sure I compared the rates which were being quoted on our store with the rates we get simply by logging into the FedEx website. The rates for "FedEx 2 Day" and "FedEx Express Saver" match to the penny. But the rates for "Standard Overnight" and "Priority Overnight" are way off. Just to experiment, I zero'd out all our handling fees, and tried it both with displaying "list" and "account" rates. The numbers do change, but they're still wrong. Here's an example. We currently have the FedEx shipping module set to display ACCOUNT rates, and add a $5 handling charge. Let's use a hypothetical .8 pound package going from Dallas 75227 to Chicago 60601. Our OSC store quotes the following: Priority Overnight - $46.90 Standard Overnight - $42.66 But logging into fedex.com and getting a rate quote for the same package with our same account number, we get: Priority Overnight - $25.41 Standard Overnight - $23.66 Even adding the $5 handling fee to the FedEx quote, you can see that the rates shown on our store are > $15 higher. And yet the rates for FedEx 2 Day and FedEx Express Saver agree perfectly. (These are the 4 services we are offering, so I did not compare any of the other possible rates.) How can this be happening? And, more importantly, can anyone suggest a fix? I would encourage everyone to try a similar test to make certain that the prices you are displaying have some basis in reality. Thanks.

Roaddoctor Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 rate test at the fedex.com site the difference between using "your packaging" and "fedex envelope" packaging.

For dropoff type your probably best to leave it at 1. "packaging type" seems to have a big effect on rates as well. check that...

molafish Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I'm trying to figure out why I have an order without a shipping charge, when this module is the only shipping module enabled. I have free shipping under the Order Total module disabled. So the only thing I can think of is checkout was able to continue when the soap service was down? Is that possible? I tried changing the url to something else to test what happens when the url is down, and that just threw php errors. So, I've come here to see what the expected behavior should be. I've seen mention of a "please enter zip code" message when people have auth problems. But does checkout still proceed after that message is displayed?

Roaddoctor Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yes a transaction can continue with or without a shipping charge. I too have experienced the soap error issue at least once and had to call the customer to explain. If its a common problem perhaps have someone audit your code to try to sort it. You could also change the error message to instruct your customer to call you if the error occurs.... as a workaround... Quote -Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
