Does Auctiva recognize Canada Post?

Hi,

I ran a quick test by selecting the ebay.ca site (page top). I selected "Calculated" and all the Canada Post methods were in the drop-down list. I selected "Canada Post Expedited Parcel" and the gray dimension boxes turn white for entry. In checking, any of the 5 Canada Post methods selected would allow entry of dimensions.

From past experience, I do believe at least one qualifying service-method must be selected with calculated.....that combo drives the calculated use for listing and checkout.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

yes, you can do that and enter all the information but when you run the ERROR CHECK, then error came up shown that "invalid Zipcode for using the shipping calculator" and there is no place we can input the Postal Code (for Canada Seller) to correct this error.

Hope anyone know how to do it.

Thanks

Hi newcomer,

Yep, I encountered the problem too, so did a check of how they are evaluating the entry and found this expression test:

="^[A-Za-z][\d][A-Za-z][ ][\d][A-Za-z][\d]$"

What that boils down to is a simple pattern check to see if the 1st digit is alpha, followed by number followed by alpha folowed by SPACE followed by number...alpha...number.

So, I checked Montreal's City Hall at h2y 1c6 and it PASSED! It also passed with UPPER CASE alphas.

Use a blank between the the first three and last three digits, which is the standard (from my days of Canada shipments). Try that...

Thank you for your help. Maybe my problem was that I grabbed an already existing listing and used the "sell similar" format. I promise, I couldn't access that area at all. Maybe I have to start fresh when I need to change shipping options. Anyways, thank you because that's all I need to get going.

NOPE ... can't input package dimensions. I just tried to use the new listing as opposed to the 'sell similar' format. Still can't put in dimensions. Is this because I'm on the free trial? Maybe I can't access it until I get a paid version. What am I doing wrong?

Hmmmmm.....

OK...Let's try step-by-step.

1. I used Create New under Listings Tab.

2. At page top I selected Canada for eBay Site.

3. In Shipping Tools section, I selected Calculated Shipping in the Domestic group...and the grayed-out Dimensions boxes immediately appeared.

4. I then selected "Canada Post Expedited Parcel" for the 1st Domestic Shipping Services ....and....
the Dimension boxes turned white and are now fillable (and tested to make sure of same). And, that repeats my prior trial.

OK....that was with IE8, so (to eliminate browser bug) I repeated with Firefox and got exactly the same result.

Is there a difference with Trial? Hopefully NOT. Still puzzeled.

Ohhhhh ... Gottit Danno!!! I have to select the Shipping Service first - then the package dimensions area changes to white and I can enter the sizes. Ohhhhhh yeah .... easy peasy!!! My brain worked only from up to down. So ... it does work with the free trial and it does work with 'create new listing' as well as the 'create similar listing'. I thank you thank you for your help
