-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.wildblueberryproducts.com
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.5.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.4.4
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.28

Weight' => array ( 'Value' => '4.8', 'Units' => 'KG', ), 0 => array ( 'Dimensions' => array ( 'Length' => '422.4', 'Width' => '422.4', 'Height' => '625.6', 'Units' => 'CM', )

This is the information reflected within the weight/Dimensions area of the request that the fedex plugin is sending out.

I do not understand why KG/CM values are send from my shopping cart when all values I can find in our system are set to oz.lb and in/ft. I assume this is why the rates I am charged by fedex upon shipment are different than the rates my website indicates upon order.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hello,

Are these values correctly converted ? Or do you have a product with :
Weight : 4.8 lb/oz
Length : 422.4 in/ft
Width: 422.4 in/ft
Height : 625.6 in/ft
If they are converted, there won't be any problem, but if that's not the case we'll have to check and debug it.

Also, can you give me more information regarding your shipping method configuration page and your product through some screenshots for example ?
Thanks.

The order placed to generate the request mentioned above was for a quantity of 40.
The weight for each item is 2 oz.
The volume is 2 x 2 x 3 in

Hello,
I just tested it on my end and the FedEx plugin is correctly sending a product with :
- Weight : 1KG (minimum is 1KG)
- Dimensions : 5.08 x 5.08 x 7.62 cm <==> 2 x 2 x 3 in

That shipping method is correctly working on my end I'll probably need a temporary access to your back-end to directly test it. You can send it through our contact form : www.hikashop.com/support/contact-us.html

Thanks.

My main concern was that our request to FedEx was represented in KG/CM instead of oz/in.
I assumed that I had something wrong in our configuration.

The rates are not that far off now, so if this is the way it's suppose to work, I'm all set.
Thanks!
