IIS 5.0 - You will need to have IIS 5.0 (or later) to use the
shipping routine. You currently have
<%=Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_SOFTWARE")%>
installed.
|
| Step 3. |
COUNTRY CODES - You will need to ensure that the country
codes assigned to each country in your store are valid ISO
country codes (by default they are). Also, shipping to the
US requires that US state codes are the standard 2 letter
abbreviation (by default they are).
|
| Step 4. |
SHIPMENT WEIGHT - The weight of your products must be
entered into your database as Kilograms. You can have
fractions (eg. 1.89 Kilograms).
|
| Step 5. |
CANADA POST PROFILE - Before proceeding to the next step, you must request a
Shipping Profile. Send the request to
sellonline@canadapost.ca.
You will initially receive a test account, but you can request to
move the account to production immediately because the module is
already tested.
