    Calculating FedEx freight rates to Canada

    I have been trying to figure out how to get my web sites to properly
    calculate FedEx freight rates to Canada. I have both Modstop's FedEx module
    and Viking's Advanced FedEx module and neither one of these modules
    calculates the freight on a regular basis. Every once in a while we get the
    freight rates to show, no idea why.

    I know the FedEx servers that process the freight all day long work ok
    because we get the freight tickets any time we want them so my theory is
    that the data is not being passed by the modules correctly so FedEx server
    can pass the freight cost back. It may very well be that Miva is not
    limiting the customer's data input correctly so the modules don't pass the
    info to FedEx correctly. For example, you must enter the proper two letter
    province abbreviation, postal code without spaces etc.

    Running 4.24, OUI etc. Anybody out there got this to work? I can't believe
    someone hasn't figured it out. I have been using these modules for several
    years and nothing has improved.

    What about anyone using a UPS advanced module? Does that work on Canadian
    orders? We waste time every day manually looking up the freight and then
    getting the customer's approval on it. We can't just flat rate it because
    many of the freight charges are based on volume.

    I would appreciate any comments.

    Calculating FedEx freight rates to Canada



    The Fedex module from modstop (maybe vikingcoders) should calculate canadian
    rates if the shopper enters the 2 digit code for the province.

    You can add the Canadian Provinces to the states and change "Outside US" to
    "Outside US and Canada".
