Title: UPS Production key
Post by: cinr11 on February 18, 2010, 16:17:54 PM
My ups module is finally working. I need to switch it to production. I went on the UPS website and requested for a production key. I typed in my developers key, checked off Rating Ground freight,Do you currently use Czar or Czar Lite rates? NO,Will be you pay the invoice? NO since my vendor will. But it doesnt let me so when I click YES it ask me for  Ground Freight Testing Results(Rate Value)?? What do I do? am stuck here. If I say YES to pay invoice will they charge me also??

where do I go to get Ground Freight Testing Results(Rate Value)

The UPS modules here do not support freight shipping...

I am not trying to do freight shipping. I want to use UPS Module for the UPS shipping. It works great with the development key but I was told that I need to bring it over to production. So I went to the ups.com to get a production key but they want the questions that are above. Make sense?

Sure, but you shouldn't have checked any "freight".  There is no support for it in the modules, and it sounds like doing so routed you to the wrong page/system.  It has been over 2 years since I signed up for production credentials, so I can't give you detailed instructions on how to do so.  You might want to contact their tech support.  Tell them you just need production credentials for the rating service, and that you've already tested with your development credentials just fine.

what's the weight? have you set the module to commercial or residential? Are you using shipping modifiers? Do you have handling fees set?

Are you using the latest version of the module? If so, set the "extra debug" checkbox, and see what the module shows.  You should get tons of info about the weight, rates, etc.

Lowmips,


      First of all, Thank you for helping me. I will be selling wedding and baby favors so they are pretty light anywhere from 0.5 - 1.5. I do have the shipping module to residential delivery. I have the handling fee set to blank. The latest Virtue mart that am using is 1.1.4 . I haven't seen the "Extra debug", the only thing i see is "debug" under the core settings and "debug" under the debug settings. Are those the ones you mean.
