Hi All, I need to offer additional shipping at a specified range of time & day, time based shipping.
For example all orders placed between 4.30 PM Thursday to 6:00 PM Friday should be offered an additional shipping method. I thought of 2 ways to achieve this : 1) To have a new entity (TimeBasedShiping or whatever which will have the Shipping Estimate Id) , during the displaying of shipping methods we can check the time condition with current time and decide whether to display the shipping method or not. 2) To extend or add new time based fields to Shipping Estimates entity and check the time condition with the current time to decide whether to display the shipping method or not. There is a minor issue with the 2 option, deciding the shipping estimate based on price, quantity or weight is justified in Shipping Estimate entity but time based condition in Shipping Estimate entity will look odd ? Any other ideas on implementing this feature ? or am I missing something ? - Abdullah
