when an order is getting shipping info it comes from the shipping
estimates.
you have to customize to get realtime shipping from for the order.
the problem comes because you basically have used part of the shipping,
so if the order is changed or canceled you have to cancel the shipping
with the shipper, in some cases.

Thanks
I assume I configure those interfaces through the Facilities / Shipping
Gateway config page
However when a user is creating an order and is filling in the shipping
information, how does he invoke that interface? There is an option under
SHipment Method which says "No Shipping - calculated offline" and that is
the only one which does not have a fixed rate associated with it...is that
the option to be used?
Thanks
James

Subject: Re: Actual Freight charges
if the shipper has a interface to get this info, yes.
this is done with USPS, UPS, and FEDEX now.

When an order is placed there are a range of fixed price shipping options.
Is there a way to pull in actual shipping costs from a carrier, for
example based on weight?
Thanks
