How to include Estimated Delivery Dates when getting shipping rates?

[lstellway]

I see that ShipperHQ promotes the ability to estimate delivery dates / shipping times.

I am exploring the modules to find how to get this data when requesting quotes.

ShipperHQ\Shipper\Model\Carrier\Shipper::getQuotes()

I see a few lines checking for a delivery_date field from the returned rate data in the following method:

ShipperHQ\Shipper\Model\Carrier\Shipper::parseShipperResponse()

Would you be able to provide any guidance for providing an estimated delivery date?

Thank you.

Hello Logan,

ShipperHQ saves additional information for each order in custom columns on the order table and order items table.

You can access these values using direct calls e.g. $order->getData("delivery_date") or by using the order API to extract what you need. See this article below for usage and further explanation.

For the record, I needed to enable the Date & Time feature under Account Settings > Features.

Thank you
