Shipping Questions
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2003 1:20 pm
I am setting up Shopsite Manager 6.1.1 for a client and have shipping
related questions.
Using UPS and the automated shipping cost lookup system. For international
the overseas UPS shipping methods are stupidly expensive (four times what
air post would cost). As a workaround I disabled the overseas UPS methods,
enabled Shipping by Weight (as well as UPS) with a single option called
"International Air Post (we will email you with cost)" with a cost of zero.
Question 1 - is there a more sensible way to handle UPS to US/Canada and air
post to all other countries?
Question 2 - is there a way to get the US (where bulk of sales will be) to
come up as the default country in the countries pull down menu, right now
it's the first alphabetically (Argentina)
Question 3 - on certain items - we want to offer free ground shipping in the
US - but there seems to no way to specify that specifically or "no shipping
charge" in general on a per item basis.
One extra non-shipping question - is there a way to disable the ShopSite
store URL (we aren't using that) from appearing at the bottom of the email
receipt?
Thanks
