Title: Multiple Store Pickup Shipping Module
Post by: aarondwyer on September 19, 2007, 12:34:48 PM
Hi all

I have need of a shipping module, that is for store pickup only, however this shop has multiple physical stores that a customer can pick from as their pickup location.

Before I go and create a new module I thought I'd check if anyone knows if there is something like this out there already.

Anyone know of something that's out there even 1/2 done that I can build off.

Thanks
Aaron

Hi, Aaaron...

I made a similar hack once...

The idea was to extend the Manufacturers' table with a ZIP field and then use this field inside any shipping module... Every product is already assigned a manufacturer, so you can have this ZIP field available when calculating shipping rates for your products... Of course, you have to calculate a shipping rate separately for each manufacturer (for all of his products) and then add those partial rates in order to show the final shipping rate to client...

Regards

Michael
