AuctionInc

AuctionInc is a shipping cost calculator designed to enable buyers to compare shipping rates and choose the method that best suits their needs. AutionInc’s shipping cost calculator provides site administrators with an accurate means of calculating shipping prices close to the actual cost of the shipment based on different carrier charges and different delivery methods, taking destination, lot size, and weight of the product into consideration. This will minimize the risk of overcharging for shipping (a reason for lost sales) or losing money by charging your buyers less than actual shipping charges.

Note: For more information about AuctionInc visit www.auctioninc.com.

Warning: Please note that AuctionInc can calculate shipping charges to destinations throughout the world but only if the sender's (ship from) address is in the United States. AuctionInc cannot calculate shipping costs for deliveries that originate outside the United States.

15.    Click Configure shipment box dimensions for all products to open the Manage Products page.

Note: For orders with multiple items packaged together, the AuctionInc engine will calculate shipping based on the ship from/ship to addresses, services applied, and package weight.

a.        Check the Auctioninc Config. Status column to see which products still need to be configured for AuctionInc (i.e., those marked with  rather than ).

b.        Open the target product.

c.        On the Settings page, in the Shipping Subcontainer fields, you will provide values for each product to get AuctionInc shipping calculations:

Note: To use AuctionInc: If you use a subcontainer (a box that encloses the ordered material but is not necessarily the sturdy outer box used for shipping), specify the dimensions for a single box that will serve as the “subcontainer” and specify the maximum number of copies/quantity of this product that can fit inside it). For instance, say you ship business cards in a 7 x 31/2 x 2 card box that you place in a larger box for shipping (the latter will vary based on the number of subcontainers are to be shipped in it).

If you do not use a subcontainer, enter the dimensions of the product itself and then set the quantity to
1.

         Ship item separately: Check this option to prevent exceeding the maximum package weight.  

Note: This control is to help you prevent exceeding the maximum package weight for the product. If packing multiple subcontainers in the larger shipping container will exceed the maximum package weight, you should check the Ship item separately box to prevent exceeding the maximum package weight. For example, say the product is a lamp that weighs 100 pounds. The maximum package weight for shipping is 150 pounds. You would want to ship each lamp separately to prevent exceeding the maximum weight (i.e., if you ship two in a single box, it would be 200 pounds). Thus the weight determines how many packages will be created.

          Enter the dimensions of the sub-carton in which the product will be packed for shipping:

      Width of the subcontainer

      Length of the subcontainer

      Height of the subcontainer

      Max Quantity per Subcontainer: maximum number of items to include in each sub-container.

Warning: If you are not using a subcontainer, the information should reflect the dimensions of the shipping container to ship a single piece.

d.        Click Save & Exit.

16.    Go to Administration > Site Settings.

a.        Open the Shipping Cost Configuration tab.

b.        Check the box Use Auctioninc For Shipping Cost Calculation.
