Package Types and Weight limit issue on Rate request #196

Closed harisnano closed 2 years ago

harisnano commented 2 years ago
  1. FEDEX_ENVELOPE doesn't return the rate request. it return "There are no valid services available."
  2. For a single package the weight limit should be 50 lbs but you can't do more than 20 lbs when the packaging type is a Fedex box.
  3. For weight more then 20lbs you have to use YOUR_PACKAGING

FEDEX_10KG_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_25KG_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_EXTRA_LARGE_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_LARGE_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_MEDIUM_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_PAK - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_SMALL_BOX - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_TUBE - Weight limit for a single package: 50 lbs FEDEX_ENVELOPE - Weight limit for a single package: 10 lbs (can only send one package per shipment) YOUR_PACKAGING - Weight limit for a single package: 2200 lbs

For the envelope option, I am using 0.5 lbs, which works for me. I am not sure how it's even possible to put 10 lbs of stuff in FedEx envelope, it would have to be a heavy metal plate :)

If you look at the FedEx Calculator it allows max weight of 10 lbs for envelope and only 1 package for the shipment Screenshot from 2021-12-16 17-05-12

Ha... interesting, they must have just recently changed it. When I was developing my solution I was using the old calculator, it looks like it's still available here - https://www.fedex.com/ratefinder/standalone With that tool, it will not accept an envelope even with 1lb weight, so I advised my users to put 0.5lbs for the envelope and that solved it for us. I wonder if their new calculator is still glitchy.
