Hi! I've created a shipping cost estimate with an "Order Flat Price"
and a "Weight Unit Price". The weight UOM for the shipping cost estimate is Pound (avdp). Then I created an order for 10 of an item that has Product Weight = 1 and Weight UOM = Ounce (avdp). When I get to the place where it calculates the shipping estimate, however, it gives me a price for shipping 11 pounds, rather than the 1 pound it actually should weigh. It appears that it's using the total of the product weight field (10) with the UOM for the shipping estimate (pound), rather than using the UOM specified for the product weights (ounce). Doesn't OFBiz check UOMs and make the appropriate conversions when doing these calculations? Do I have to always use the same weight UOM? --NCH PS--My assumption is that it's calculating for 11 pounds instead of 10 because I made a mistake when I set it up, so I'm not worried about that. |
had this error ver 3.0 thought we fixed it.

here is something close but not about Shipping parse.

Well, I'm getting it with trunk revision 678902. UOM_Conversion table
seems to have the appropriate entries, so I don't know what's going on. --NCH On 23 Jul 2008, at 3:06 PM, BJ Freeman wrote: > had this error ver 3.0 thought we fixed it. > > Nathan C Hampton sent the following on 7/23/2008 2:51 PM: >> Hi!

unless someone else takes interest I will poke around to see how it
works or is suppose to work may take a week or two Nathan C Hampton sent the following on 7/24/2008 1:54 PM: > Well, I'm getting it with trunk revision 678902.

from the looks of it
https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/webtools/control/ArtifactInfo?type=service&uniqueId=convertUom only done during shipment ,which was the original problems I had in mind. unless you or someone else want to contribute the code to do this for shipping estimates, i will take a crack at it.

you might want to put this in the Jira so it can be worked on by someone.
