UPS Module Issue
 

I am experiencing issues with the UPS shipping module. It is testing perfectly from the admin backend, but when I test the actual shopping cart, the rates are different (quite a bit higher). I have double checked all my module settings and they are correct. I need the actual pricing (what I am seeing in the admin test) to be the rates my customers see/receive. Any advice?? Anyone else experiencing issues? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you get different pricing when trying the same delivery address in the back-end and in the storefront? What address do you use?

Yes, I was using the exact same information (address, weight, etc.) and getting completely different pricing in the front-end. However, I worked with the help desk on this issue - and it was determined it is showing business address pricing in back-end admin testing and residential pricing in the front-end cart.

For others having this issue, here was the help desk response:

It appears the issue is related to the following fact: when you test the actual shopping cart, X-Cart adds <ResidentialAddressIndicator/> to the request being sent to UPS. That is why the rates in the shopping cart are higher comparing to the rates in the admin back-end. However, the rates in the shopping cart appear to be correct.

Anyway, I have reported this issue to our X-cart developers, to fix the test rates calculation in one of the new X-Cart versions (I would suggest a possible solution - add <ResidentialAddressIndicator/> to the test request).
