1. Re: Integrate / Add New Shipping Option (Toll Australia)
mario_gudelj Apr 15, 2012 9:50 PM (in response to Luke Johns)HI Luke,
You will have to use Aust Post. It kind of does what you've specified above. There is currently no way to integrate Toll as a shipping option where you enter the destination postcode, supply the orogin in admin and retrieve the rates. The current framework simply doesn't allow it.

2. Re: Integrate / Add New Shipping Option (Toll Australia)
Luke Johns Apr 16, 2012 1:20 AM (in response to mario_gudelj)Hi Mario,
Thank you for your response.
Unfortunately, Australia Post is very restrictive in terms of what can be sent nationally. This particular client would like to send office equipment including chairs, whiteboards, office tables and the like which Australia Post simply will not send.
I'm concerned that after over 3 years though that this has not been intergrated into the shipping options layout when BC said they would look into it. Here's a link to the original topic for more information - http://www.businesscatalyst.com/ForumRetrieve.aspx?TopicID=6718
Has anyone else found a resolution to this?
Thanks,
Luke.

Did you ever find a solution for this? We have a client with similar requirements and we are just about to design a series of custom calcuated forms as a work around the limited shipping options.
Unless, of course, you have found a better solution!

No I did not find a different solution and BC did not get back to me either. The client has since mentioned that they do not need it any more, which was lucky for us.
I would imagine Toll would have some sort of calculator that you could perhaps attach as a iframe and then using JSON, you could get the final figure from Toll into a shipping field on the cart of BC.
Kind regards,
Luke.

There's no way to integrate another shipping provider with the BC's shopping cart. You'll have to use user defined shipping options in this case.
