Does anyone know how to setup parcel mode scenario for parcel carriers in OTM? I tried to create parcel scenario in OTM using zones concept, but unable to achieve the desired output.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Surender,

Perhpas you have to state more about "Parcel mode".
What are you trying to achieve?

Best regards,

Surrender,

Where you able to get your parcel setup complete? I am in the process of revanping our OTM parcel structure - we don't use an external rating engine - using the rate_offering_cost_unit_break table. Not quite there but almost. I am not able to apply the base rate in rate lookup.

Hi,

For simulating the parcel mode in OTM,use rate zone concept along with rate break.also dont use lookup for parcel use day duration concept in rate service.

Try above setup's.

I have gotten thru the RATE ZONE stuff successfully, along with the DAYDURATION service. The snag I'm hitting with this is how to get the rate breaks to work. It doesn't look like weight breaks are supported for a PARCEL Rate Offering type. I tried using Rate Unit Breaks but haven't had much luck (yet!).

Any suggestions on which object types to use for a combination of rate zone / weight break?

Did you try offering type = ZONE-BASED?

[SUEALLEN]

Yes, the offering type is ZONE-BASED. That is giving me the geography portion of the rates, which is working fine. The problem I'm having is the other dimension, or weight.
