Shipping Codes Scenario
|
|
| Omer Sever 2005-02-04, 8:53 pm |
| Hi to all,
I need shipping charges for the following scenario. Does the Websphere
Commerce Professional Edition support this or not? Anyone has any ideas?
The scenario :
- If the weigth of the item shipped is between
0 - 4 kg -> 5 $
5 - 9 kg -> 10 $
10 - and up -> 15 $
but 5, 10, 15 are constant values. When I place something like this in
the Accelerator, the store calculates the shipping charge by multiplying
th weight with the price I give. For example, if the item is 8 kg,
then the shipping charges comes out to be 8 * 10 = 80, but I want it to
be directly 10 without multipling with weight. Namely, for any item of
weight between 5 kg and 9 kg we should charge 10 $ regardless of its
weight. Is there an option supporting this scenario or how can I apply
this shipping codes?
Thanks in advance.

I am confident this is supported OOB. What version of v5 are we talking
about? I haven't set this up in the latest version but the OOB classes
are out there for assignment to the CALCODE_ID. This has been supported
since the Net.Commerce days (ah, those fond memories of yore).
Accelerator is limiting in some areas. A recent project revealed a bug
in the Sales Catalog feature, the Custom tab of Descriptive Attributes,
and no way to enter category sequence numbers for the Master Catalog
(only the Sales Catalog). It may be necessary to change the database
directly if Accelerator can't do what you want.
