Add Fields to your Products

Add Shipping Method(s)

For each shipping service you want to use (eg. UPS Ground or UPS 2nd Day Air), you'll need to create a new shipping method. To do this, run php please make:ups-shipping-method UPS-Ground which will create a new shipping method in /app/ShippingMethods/UPSGround.php.

In the new file, note the calculateCost() function. This is where the fetchShippingRates() function is called to fetch UPS rates. You can pass in the service code for the UPS service you want to use. The list of service codes available:

UPS Next Day Air
UPS 2nd Day Air
UPS Ground
UPS Worldwide Express
UPS Worldwide Expedited
UPS Standard
UPS 3 Day Select
UPS Next Day Air Saver
UPS Next Day Air Early A.M.
UPS Worldwide Express Plus
UPS 2nd Day Air A.M.
UPS Saver
UPS Today Standard
UPS Today Dedicated Courier

Create a new shipping method for each service you want to use, and modify the name, description, and service code within each method.
