Very odd! Today, on an order, the customer did something and zero shipping was charged. It said Ship Method TBD... with 0.00 as the shipping amount.

This is on DNN7 with cart 5.30.

We use "Custom Ship Methods with Fixed Amounts" and have 3 different shipping options.

What is "TBD"... to be determined?

Thanks for any ideas,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Have you been able to replicate the issue by adding the same Product to the Cart and using the same address the user entered?

Hi Kevin,

I can repeat the error! Here is what you do...

1. Go to View Cart.
2. You see your cart selection and Ship To box.
3. Press the Update Quantity button and all the sudden the Ship Method gets populated with 3 UPS shipping options, which our cart is not setup to use.
4. Proceed to checkout and shipping becomes 0.00!

Again, we use custom entered shipping options. So pressing Update Quantity loads an invalid shipping option (the UPS shipping calculator I guess), thus you get 0.00 on the final checkout page as our cart uses "Custom Ship Methods with Fixed Amounts".

More info that may affect the above... I went into the cart setup and quickly expanded the UPS shipping option, and cleared all the UPS shipping options, and saved the settings, and set it back to Custom Ship Methods with Fixed Amounts.

Now, selecting Update Quantities brings up an empty shipping dropdown, without the UPS options.

Maybe, when users select Update Quantity, it is not looking for the default shipping option selected buy the cart admin, but loading up something else.

And, when you press the Change Shipping button, it repopulates the correct shipping options. Press the Cancel button, which is under the Ship To box, and it clears all the shipping options and you cannot proceed.

I think that the Cancel/Change Shipping button should be in the Ship To box, as it not clear what it is for. But in our case, it should always be hidden because I do not know one would cancel shipping when all our shipping options are there with the 3 custom entered shipping choices.

So, simply have it that if Custom Ship Methods with Fixed Amounts is selected, you make sure you only reload that option when Update Quantities is selected, and also, make sure the Cancel/Change Shipping buttons are also hidden. Then, you should be good and this would likely not happen!

And even more to the above!

I closed the browser again, and reopened it. Now behavior is slightly different.

Pressing Update Quantities now does not change shipping to UPS! Very good. I had to clear out the old UPS shipping options, as those were still getting called up, even though we changed to the custom ship methods option.

Now, the only thing a little strange is pressing the Cancel button below the Ship To box. It completely clears the Ship Too box of all text boxes. You just get the labels and an empty dropdown list box.

So the answer is: Clearing out old UPS options, and to somehow hide the Cancel/Change Shipping buttons.

Hi Steve,

The Cancel button should clear the fields. After the Cancel button is clicked the user will be required to Click the Change Shipping button and enter their Ship To info before proceeding to the next page.

If you would like to hide the buttons you can modify the Cart.ascx file found in the DesktopModules\Smith.BuyNow folder.
