Title: VM 2.0.2 shipment costs by state (not only by country or zip code)
Post by: robinira on April 05, 2012, 15:35:39 PM

Good morning,
i have a problem trying to find a solutions to menage the shipping cost of fedex.
If i have to create many separated shipping method, one for each ZIP range and for each weight range, i have to create hundreds of shipping entries.
Do you know if is it possible to create a Zone with a group of states?

For example i have these Zones for FEDEX shipment:

Zone 1:

States in this zone: Delaware,Massachusetts,Maryland, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania

Shipping costs:

to lbs. 18 $8.00
to lbs. 30 $10.00
to lbs. 60 $15.00
to lbs. 100 $32.00
to lbs. 150 $55.00

How would you create this shipments rule?

Thanks to all and best regards.

Roberto

Hi,

QuoteDo you know if is it possible to create a Zone with a group of states?

No it is not possible yet.

Quotei have to create hundreds of shipping entries.

Yes it is true. I have planned to include a clone button.

QuoteStates in this zone: Delaware,Massachusetts,Maryland, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania

Each states have a range of Zip codes? You need to create a shipment method for each range of ZIP codes.

As an alternative, can i access the database table that contains records of the shipping method and manually add all the records I need?
If is it possible, where is the table to modify?

Thanks to all.....

I am curious if there is a module to identify valid shipment states yet. I know of only one other Joomla Component that does that but I was getting nowhere and switched to VM...

My client needs to be able to block wine sales to Arizona, or only ship to X, Y, and Z states.

Thanks!
