Flat Rate Shipping with Multiple Options- Sunday, October 7, 2012

Here a basic example of how to set up various shipping rate options.  When you have certain conditions that depend on Country where you only want to offer a single option, then use OptionExit so that no other options are evaluated.  When you want to offer multiple options, then use Option - each condition expression is evaluated, and if true, then the option is presented to the customer.  A typical example would be when you want to offer Ground, Next day, etc.

Example requirements:

  • International $100
  • Canada $55
  • Hawaii & Alaska $55
  • Free ground shipping orders over $100, except HI and AK.
  • Ground $15 for all orders under $100
  • Next Day Air $95
  • 2 Day Air $85
  • 3 Day Air $75

Also, check out the first part of this blog   I.e. you need to use ErrorExit to check for country/state as the initial record, because if in Estimate Shipping the customer does not choose a Country or State it will cause an error in the above references.

You can leave out the zip code check based on above conditions:

ShippingAddress.Country = null  or ("US,CA".Contains(ShippingAddress.Country.TwoLetterIsoCode) and ShippingAddress.StateProvince = null)
