Canpar Shipping Module
for osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2
The module uses CanPar Ground - Single Package rate sheets and FSA zones as published
by CanPar available at www.canpar.ca on 2006.07.14. The FSA system utilizes the first 3 letters (the FSA portion) of the Canadian Postal Code for the 'Store' and the 'Customer' to determine the appropriate shipping rate table. It then uses the package weight to determine the shipping cost.
The FSA tables, Rate Sheets and Rate Tables are separate routines that can be updated when the FSA set used by Canada Post (i.e. more codes are added) or Rates change (will fuel prices come down?). Check regularly for updates.
The shipping module also employs a 'mark-up' that can be used to mark-up or discount the Table Rates. Use a decimal fraction (i.e. 0.8) for a discount of 20% or 1.1 for an increase of 10% on the published rates.
