Scenario:

Two Geozones: USA & South America

Two warehouses, one on each Geozone.

If order recipient is in USA i want the order to be sent from USA Warehouse. also notification of this order to go to a specific user related to same Warehouse or location.

If order recipient is in South America i want the order to be sent from South America Warehouse; also notification of this order to go to a specific user related to same Warehouse or location.

Note: Basically depending on where the order will be shipped to, it will decide where to send order shipment details. This basically allows shipment from two different warehouses based on what warehouse is closer kind of.

Hi,

Do you have the Geo Zones already setup, if so I can't see it been too difficult for me to develop, we need a similar feature ourselves so will try to mock something up over the weekend...

Best Regards,

THIS would be great! We have two offices also, one US and one Dutch so I was wondering how I would deal with this issue. ;)

Where the warehouse is has no meaning for geozone shipping. You simply decide the rate you will charge if a customer is in that geozone.

So create 2 geozones: USA and South Africa
Use weight-based shipping and set the rates that you will charge to ship if the customer is in each zone. Don't even think about the warehouse location as that is irrelevant for the shipping in this case.

Warehouse location only matters in the case where live rates are being returned from a service like UPS or FedEx. Then the rate calculation needs to know the origin and destination zipcodes. For Geozones.. you determine the price.

in the multishop you might be able to add 2 different default geo zones depending on which domain you are coming from.

I think I didn't explain the issue or I made it too complex.

In Simple words:

I want will have two users receiving order notifications.

US Open Cart Admin - Will receive (emailed notifications) on orders shipping to US.

UK Open Cart Admin - Will receive (emailed notifications) on orders shipping to UK.

Purpose of this:
Order shipping to US are shipped from US and order shipping to UK ship to UK.
