eBay::API::XML::DataType::CalculatedShippingRateType(3)

NAME
eBay::API::XML::DataType::CalculatedShippingRateType

DESCRIPTION
Details pertinent to one or more items for which calculated shipping has been offered by the seller, such as package dimension and weight and packaging/handling costs. Also returned with the data for an item's transaction.

SYNOPSIS

INHERITANCE
eBay::API::XML::DataType::CalculatedShippingRateType inherits from the eBay::API::XML::BaseDataType class

Subroutines:

  setInternationalPackagingHandlingCosts()
Fees a seller might assess for the shipping of the item (in addition to whatever the shipping service might charge). Any packaging/handling cost specified on input is added to each shipping service on output. If domestic and international calculated shipping is offered for an item and if packaging/handling cost is specified only for domestic shipping, that cost will be applied by eBay as the international packaging/handling cost. (To specify a international packaging/handling cost, you must always specify a domestic packaging/handling cost, even if it is 0.) For international calculated shipping only.

  setMeasurementUnit()
Specifies the unit type of the weight and dimensions of a shipping package. If MeasurementUnit is used, it overrides the system specified by measurementSystem. If MeasurementUnit and measurementSystem are not specified, the following defaults will be used: <br><br> English: Ubr Metric: CA, CAFR, AU <br><br> CA and CAFR supports both English and Metric, while other sites only support the site's default. <br><br> Use MeasurementUnit with weight and package dimensions. For example, to represent a 5 lbs 2 oz package: <br> &lt;MeasurementUnit&gt;English&lt;/MeasurementUnit&gt; <br> &lt;WeightMajor&gt;5&lt;/WeightMajor&gt; <br> &lt;WeightMinor&gt;2&lt;/WeightMinor&gt;

  setPackageDepth()
Depth of the package, in whole number of inches, needed to ship the item. This is validated against the selected shipping service. Upon mismatch, a message is returned, such as, "Package dimensions exceeds maximum allowable limit for service XXXXX," where XXXXX is the name of the shipping service. For calculated shipping only. Only returned if the seller specified the value for the item. (In many cases, the seller only specifies the weight fields.) <br><br> Developer impact: UPS requires dimensions for any Ground packages that are 3 cubic feet or larger and for all air packages, if they are to provide correct shipping cost. If package dimensions are not included for an item listed with calculated shipping, the shipping cost returned will be an estimate based on standard dimensions for the defined package type. eBay enforces a dimensions requirement on listings so that buyers receive accurate calculated shipping costs.

Above this maximum, the shipping type becomes Freight, an option that can only be selected via the eBay Web site and not via API. The weight details are validated against the selected shipping service. For calculated shipping only. Required on input when calculated shipping is used.
