Found 524 Modules or Applications that might fit the bill
Use caution when considering any modules from modStop. Their support has been reported by umpteen Miva Merchant users as suspect and worse. Some of their modules are simple and shouldn't require support. Please contact us with any questions concerning them or their modules.
Sort your shipping methods by cost, module name, or method name. Offer a free shipping option when any one of several parameters are met. Use the default layout within the existing user interface or a template with tokens which allows you to customize the method selection table. Select list or radio button group can be used to display the available methods. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
Features: <- Sort shipping methods in the order you want them - Template with tokens allows methods as select list or radio buttons - Country configurable template header - Default layout for those who do not have skills with HTML and tokens - Free shipping option based on order subtotal - Free shipping option based on number of products - Free shipping option based on weight of the order - Free shipping option can be limited to specific availability or price groups - Free shipping option can be limited to specific location - Free shipping option can be related to specific products - Label for free shipping is configurable - Configurable default message if no options are calculated - When only one option, list is replaced with a single line display - Can hide or display shipping methods by ship to country location - Can have a different configurable message on the order payment and invoice screens and the notification emails for each shipping method using tokens
Feature Details. Sort your shipping methods by cost, module name, or method name. This Miva Merchant module can be used in conjunction with shipping modules which dynamically calculate cost, such as the UPS modules or the various World, State, or ZIP Code Zone modules.
The free shipping option can be implemented when the subtotal of the order or the number of products in the order exceeds the thresholds you establish in admin. Or you can allow free shipping when the weight of the order is less than your specified threshold. You also have theoption to give free shipping to all members of one or more designated availability groups or price groups. You can further configure the free shipping option by limiting it to specific countries (USA can be all states or just the contiguous states). You can also remove the free shipping option if certain products are ordered. It also has free shipping override, ie if every product in the basket is in your list of free shipping codes, then shipping is free no matter what the other parameters are set to. You definewhat the free shipping label displays, e.g. Free Ground Shipping.
The module also provides a default message if there are no shipping methods which can be calculated. This message replaces the default message in Merchant. While you can leave it as Unable to calculate shipping methods, you can change that to be more customer friendly, e.g. We will contact you to adjust shipping costs or To be determined.
Easily use the default layout within the existing user interface or a template with tokens which allows you to customize the method selection table. With the template you can replace the select list with a radio button group. You can also add a Select One option in the select list layout. When only one shipping method exists with the order, the list of methods is replaced with a single line display and no selection is required. The method value is passed as a hidden input to the next screen. The template can have a header section which is configurable for every different country or group of countries.
You can hide or limit the shipping methods based on ship to country. Hence, you can designate certain shipping methods for domestic and others for international shipping. For US, you can even designate the continental US; excluding Alaska and Hawaii from the domestic shipping methods. No need to buy a separate module to hide certain shipping methods from international shipping.
Each method can have a different configurable message (text or html) which is displayed usingtokens. This message can be displayed on the order payment screen (the screen after shippingmethod is selected) and on the invoice screen. It can also be in the customer and merchant notification emails if they can implement module tokens in the format %module|sortship|html_message%. This eliminates the need to install a separate, custom module for checkout messages or rely on theshipping module to have the message capability (many do not have it).
The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed.
The number table shipping module by world zone allows you to specify different shipping charges based on the method of shipping AND the number of items AND the country the item is being shipped to. The module evaluates the "ship to" country and only displays those methods and charges applicable to the destination. This prevents customers from selecting lower shipping charges which may not be available for them.
The number of items are setup by range groups, ie. from quantity X to quantity Y, the charge is Z. Multiple range groups can be established for each method of shipment and each world zone. A world zone can include one or more countries. As a wildcard, you can charge shipping to all countries not already placed in a zone rather than placing every country in one of the zones.
You can exclude specific product codes from the calculation of the number of items. If you do this, you should have a range of 0 to 0 so that if the customer only orders exempted products, Merchant will still be able to display a valid shipping option, e.g. Free.

MMUI and OpenUI compatible. If using OpenUI, no editing of mv files is needed. However, if using MMUI, editing and re-compiling of the mmui.mv is required. Thus if using MMUI, you need to have the compiler license from Miva and the limited source code for mmui.mv. Hence, OpenUI highly recommended and probably required by most stores.
The Shipping SuperModTM provides a complete shipping method control system that allows you to limit what shipping options are available to your customers based on criteria such as shipping address or even what products are being purchased. It allows you to rename and reorder shipping methods in your store, and provides fall-back shipping methods that can be used when no other shipping methods are available– for instance, when online shipping calculators are down.
Key Benefits Include:
Control the text displayed for each shipping method
NEW! Can be used with any user interface module including MMUI
Filter shipping methods available to the customer based on:
Number of items in basket
Subtotal of basket
Day of week
Time Ranges
Availability Groups
Ship-To Country
Ship-To State
NEW! Zip Codes & Zip Prefixes
Weight Minimum/Maximum
Bill-To/Ship-To Match
Uses existing shipping modules
Allows storeowner to constrain shipping methods available for each product in the store. Customers can only checkout of the store when all products in the order have a common shipping method. *
Integrates and shares data with other checkout enhancements from Copernicus
* If you use the Shipping SuperMod and a customer tries to purchase products that cannot all be shipped with the same method, no shipping methods will be available to the customer at checkout because your shipping rules are mutually exclusive and Miva Merchant on its own does not allow multiple shipping calculations in the same order. You can solve this by adding the advanced functionality of the Copernicus CheckOut SuperMod to your store, OR, allow for a "least common denominator" shipping method that is always available for all products. To learn how to do this, go to the Shipping SuperMod FAQ on the Copernicus website.
Example Usage:
A storefront that sells cakes and jelly beans online has a shipping problem. When a customer purchases a cake, the cake needs to be delivered overnight so that the cake is fresh upon delivery. When a customer buys jelly beans – they can be shipped using regular ground shipping since the jelly beans won’t go stale for quite a long time. Since the storefront offers overnight air and regular ground shipping, many customers are choosing regular shipping for their cakes and are very upset when they receive a stale cake 5 days later. The Shipping SuperMod allows the storefront owner to limit the shipping choices given to the customer given what the customer places in his shopping basket. Using the Shipping SuperMod, the storeowner creates shipping constraints on each of the products in the store – thus allowing the cake to only be shipped via overnight air. He allows the jelly beans to be shipped via overnight air or regular ground shipping. If the customer only purchases jelly beans, the customer can have a choice of overnight or regular ground shipping. If the customer chooses just a cake, he is given only the choice of overnight shipping. If the customer has jelly beans and a cake in his shopping basket, his shipping choices are limited to “overnight air” (to guarantee the freshness of the cake) since “overnight” air was created by the storefront owner as the “least common denominator” shipping method (i.e. all products in the store have the option of overnight air as a shipping method.) The customer can checkout of the store since the order has a valid shipping option.
SPECIFICATIONS & TECHNICAL NOTES
Number of items in a basket:
Limit shipping methods available based on the number of items in the basket.
Subtotal of basket:
Restrict the shipping methods available given a threshold for the subtotal of the basket.

States:
Limit the shipping methods available to customers based on their Ship-to state (in the US).
Zip Codes / Prefixes
You can specify that a shipping method is only available to certain zip codes. The zip codes are treated as prefixes; for example, setting a zip code constraint to 349 will only allow the method to be used for zip codes between 34990 and 34999.
Weight Minimum:
Constrain the shipping methods available based upon total order weight minimum.
Weight Maximum:
Constrain the shipping methods available based upon total order weight maximum.
Bill To/Ship To Match:

For complete control of the checkout process the Address SuperMod™, CheckOut SuperMod™ and Shipping SuperMods™ all work together. Each item in the basket can then be shipped to a different address using a different shipping method. Shipping methods available to each address can be filtered based upon the products in the basket, the destination, etc., and shipping for each address line item is calculated individually.
Calculate shipping by product as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the product's cost AND by the method of shipping AND by the "ship to" World Zone. Each products' shipping cost is summed to arrive at the order's shipping cost. This module provides flexibility to combine flat rate and percentage of subtotal calculations on a product by product basis.
The store owner initially sets up the available storewide shipping methods and rates for the store. You can have multiple methods for as many World Zones as you establish. You establish which countries belong to which World Zone. You can then let the storewide methods and rates apply to each product in the store or you can establish "Shipping Override" by product or by category. If you desire every product in a category to have a shipping cost different from the storewide costs, you set up that category's "Shipping Override" methods from the Category tab. You can even use some storewide and some category specific. Then if you have specific shipping costs for specific products, you can select the "Shipping Override" tab in the product edit screen. You can use the storewide methods and rates or override with the product specific rate. The product specific rates take precedence over the category specific rates and the category specific rates take precedence over the storewide rates.
The "Shipping Override" costs can be set as percentage or fixed amount and need not use the same calculation formula as the storewide calculation for the same method. The "Shipping Override" charges can even be zero so that shipping can be free for certain products or categories. As an example, the store might charge $4.00 for each item for priority mail. However, they may charge 2% of the item's cost in the jewelry category. As the shipping module summed the costs, it would apply the $4.00 to each item that did not have a "Shipping Override". Then it would multiply the 2% times each purchased item's cost in the jewelry category and add it to the sum.
The module even provides an input for a handling or base charge. That amount can be different for each method of shipping and is added after all of the individual product shipping charges are summed.
Like our other World Zone shipping modules, you can have different methods and rates for different areas of the World. When the customer enters their "ship to" address during checkout, the module determines which shipping methods will be available to that customer. Only methods established for their "ship to" country will be visible in the shipping and payment selection screen.
This module is compatible with the MMUI and OpenUI look and feel user interfaces. It is licensed per domain which means if you have multiple stores under one domain, there are no additional license fees for this module within that one domain/mall.
The groupwise weight table shipping module by world zone allows you to specify different shipping charges based on the method of shipping AND the weight of items AND the country the item is being shipped to AND the product grouping. The module evaluates the "ship to" country and only displays those methods and charges applicable to the destination. This prevents customers from selecting lower shipping charges which may not be available for them.
The weights are setup by ranges in a table, ie. from weight total X to weight total Y, the charge is Z.
Additionally, each method of shipment may contain multiple weight range tables (up to 4 different) based on the type of products being shipped. For example, your store may ship bottles containing fluids which may require different types of packaging (and more expensive shipping) from your other products. In order to compensate for these differences, the product codes, which will vary from the storewide default, can be added to a product group for shipping purposes. Then you would create a weight range table for that second group of products in addition to the original (default) table. This level of complexity is not for everybody, but if you need it, it is easily configurable. When the customer checks out, it sums the weights for up to four product groups. Then it checks the weight range tables of each of the groups within each method to match the cost for each groups' weight. Then it sums the individual group costs to arrive at the shipping charge. All products will be shipped using the single method the customer chooses, e.g. priority, ground, etc.
A world zone can include one or more countries. As a wildcard, you can charge shipping to all countries not already placed in a zone rather than placing every country in one of the zones.

The number of items (grouped) module allows the store owner to specify different shipping rates based on the method of shipping AND the number of items in the order.
This module accepts number of items ranges. For example, with 1-5 items, the charge might be $5.00. For 6-10 items, the charge might be $7.50.
This module has the added ability to permit free shipping when the order reaches a specific dollar amount independent of which number of items group the order falls into. Below that dollar amount the module uses the rate for the number of items group. If your intent is to have a free shipping option, but NOT calculate shipping charges based on the number of items, do not use this module. Rather, use the Minimum or Subtotal Shipping by World Zone module.
The store owner sets up the ranges and the free shipping level through the standard Miva Merchant admin interface. Multiple shipping methods can be setup, all with different ranges and free shipping level.

Calculate shipping by product as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the product's cost AND by the method of shipping AND by the "ship to" ZIP Code Zone. Each products' shipping cost is summed to arrive at the order's shipping cost. This module provides flexibility to combine flat rate and percentage of subtotal calculations on a product by product basis.
Easy admin configuration of per product shipping charges.
The store owner initially sets up the available storewide shipping methods and rates for the store. You can
have multiple methods for as many ZIP Code Zones as you establish. You establish which ZIP Codes belong to
which ZIP Code Zone. You can then let the storewide methods and rates apply to each product in the store or
you can establish "Shipping Override" by product or by category. If you desire every product in a category to
have a shipping cost different from the storewide costs, you set up that category's "Shipping Override"
methods from the Category tab. You can even use some storewide and some category specific. Then if you
have specific shipping costs for specific products, you can select the "Shipping Override" tab in the product
edit screen. You can use the storewide methods and rates or override with the product specific rate. The
product specific rates take precedence over the category specific rates and the category specific rates take
precedence over the storewide rates.
Fixed cost or percentage of item price.
The "Shipping Override" costs can be set as percentage or fixed amount and need not use the same
calculation formula as the storewide calculation for the same method. The "Shipping Override" charges can
even be zero so that shipping can be free for certain products or categories. As an example, the store might
charge $4.00 for each item for priority mail. However, they may charge 2% of the item's cost in the jewelry
category. As the shipping module summed the costs, it would apply the $4.00 to each item that did not
have a "Shipping Override". Then it would multiply the 2% times each purchased item's cost in the jewelry
category and add it to the sum.
Handling charge option.
The module even provides an input for a handling or base charge. That amount can be different for each
method of shipping and is added after all of the individual product shipping charges are summed.
Display this module's shipping methods based on destination.
Like our other ZIP Code Zone shipping modules, you can have different methods and rates for different areas of
the country. When the customer enters their "ship to" address during checkout, the module determines which
shipping methods will be available to that customer. Only methods established for their "ship to" ZIP Code will
be visible in the shipping and payment selection screen. The module uses the first 3 numbers of the ZIP Code
to match with the zones.
Individual ZIP codes or ranges and variable length codes.
The module for compiled Merchant (4.14 and newer) can use ZIP code ranges in lieu
of individual ZIP codes. It also has the ability to use the
first 5 digits instead of the first 3 digits of the ZIP codes.
This shipping module allows you to specify different shipping rates based on the method of shipping AND the number of items AND the area of the world the item is being shipped to.
The module evaluates the ship to country and only displays those methods and rates applicable to the destination. This prevents customers from selecting lower rates which may not be available for them.

Calculate shipping by product as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the product's cost AND by the method of shipping AND by the "ship to" State Zone. Each products' shipping cost is summed to arrive at the order's shipping cost.

Feature Details. You can add coupons through the standard Miva Merchant admin interface and include usage criteria.
An unlimited number of coupons can be assigned to the store and eachidentified with a coupon code. Once you have added the module to the store, you can add coupons in the Order Fulfillment section of the admininterface. When you select the Add icon, you will have several input fields to fill in. You must enter a unique code for your coupon. Thisis the code that you will give to customers so they can shop and redeemthe coupon. It can be any combination of letters and/or numbers.
You canembed a token in your welcome email or notification emails generated with our Mail Manager (Emporium Plus - Weiland) module. A unique coupon code will be created and is based on the coupon template you designate. You can have an unlimited number of templates and an unlimited number of coupons copied from them. If you are not using our Mail Manager, you can still activate the generator by placing the token in the invoice header. If you are using our Tell A Friend (Emporium Plus - Weiland) module, you can embed the unique coupon code in the emails that customers send when referring their friends to your store. The coupon generation is also useful when it is embedded into the follow on contact emails that our Follow On Contact (Emporium Plus - Weiland) module sends out.
If you have a lot of coupons you want to load into the system quickly,there is a coupon import from flat file module
An optional expiration date can be included which will prevent its useif the date has passed. Enter it in the year, month, day format, eg. 20000724 would be July 24, 2000. If you leave this field blank the coupon will never expire. However, you can still delete it manually through the admin interface.
A fixed value OR percentage discount off the order total is assigned to each coupon. The default is fixed value/price, e.g. $5.00 off the order total. If you put the % sign in the next input field AFTER the value field, it will calculate the coupon value based on the assigned percent of the order total. The %, if used, is entered in the separate field to the right for that purpose. If left blank, the calculation will be based on the fixed value of the coupon. See the note below about restricting discount calculations to specific products instead of the order total. A maximum redemptionvalue can be assigned to each coupon.
Free shipping coupon option. If you enter the letter S in the field to the right of the value field, the coupon will be used to allow free shipping for the entire order. Other criteria for the coupon must be met, e.g. minimum order amount, eligible products, etc.
Optionally, a coupon can be allowed only when an order total reaches a specific amount. For example, you can give a 10% discount when the order total reaches $200 as an incentive or promo. In all cases where a raw value is used, you must make this value equal to or greater than the value of the coupon. If you usethe percent calculation, this value can be any value, including zero.
Based on your state's tax requirements, the coupon can be designated toreduce the sales tax or not reduce it. The coupon's tax effect is onthe order total, not on individual products. For example, in some states, a store coupon reduces the cumulative value of products purchased before the sales tax is applied, hence you would want it to reduce tax. The exception to doingthis is if your products are likely to be non-taxable, making a coupon reduce tax could result in a negative tax calculation. Another type coupon might be the manufacturer coupon. In some states, manufacturer coupons do not decrease the tax liability. You should determine your state's tax requirements before adding coupons to your store.
Coupons can either be used:
multiple times - The coupon can be used at every visit by any customer who shops at your store. This is usually used as a promo to customers,user lists, clubs, etc. They often have a short expiration date to limittheir use. A typical usage might be a special holiday sale, eg 10% offeverything in the store if used by a specified date. This would eliminatethe need for special price groups if the intent is that everybody who hasthe coupon code can use it. In the compiled version you can limit the number of times a multiple coupon is redeemed.
only one time for each customer - The coupon can only be used for one visit per customer. When the same customer shops at your store a secondtime, if he/she uses the same coupon code, it will be rejected. This isprobably the most common coupon and is usually used in print ads or as a promo, eg. "$5.00 off on your next visit".
only one time for a unique coupon code - The coupon can only be used once. Once any customer has used this code, it becomes unavailable for any other purchase. This is often used as a customer relations tool, e.g. "sorry for the inconvenience, please accept this coupon.....".
Global or product related. You can restrict usage of a coupon in your store so that it can be used only if a specific product is ordered. You can list several product codes,any of which in the basket would make the coupon valid if the other requirements are met. Leaving the product code blank means that customers do not have to order a specific product as long as they meet the other requirements the store owner has specified. If you check the box to the left of the product code list, and are using the percentage discount, only those products in the code list will be used in the calculation using the qualifying products subtotal. If you do not check the box, the percentage discount will be applied against the order total. Youcan use a wildcard for the product list, e.g. 1AA* would make all productsbeginning with 1AA eligible for the coupon discount.
Use instant coupons on the individual product pages and for specific products. These coupons are redeemed at the product page and instantly appear in the basket as a line item discount related to a specific product. Unlike the global checkout coupons, customers can redeem multiple instant coupons in a single order. From a marketing standpoint this gives the merchant the opportunity to offer a promo code atthe product level which gives an impending event (expiration of the promo)to encourage sales while not lowering the value of the product with an overtprice discount.
You can restrict the coupon usage down to the attribute level. For example, you can limit the coupon to product codes beginning with 1AA and the attribute "Version" with the specific option value of "4.5". The format for the input would be 1AA*~Version~4.5|
If you precede the product list with a - (minus) character,the coupon will be excluded from use with those products.
You can limit the coupon to be used only if the customer is in a specific zone. You can use ONE of six possible zone limitations for each coupon (ship to: country, state or zip; bill to: country, state or zip).
Appropriate error messages are displayed when coupons don't meet theusage criteria established by the store owner. When the shopper entersa coupon code that is not valid based on the criteria you establish, he/she will see an error message just below the coupon codeinput when the page is re-displayed.
In admin, the coupons can be easily displayed and edited. The couponsare displayed in a table format with configurable number of coupons per page displayed. The entire coupon database is searchable by coupon code or beginning portion of the coupon code.
Expired coupons can be removed from the database (to cut down on disk usage) one at a time or in mass. In admin, you can either put a checkin the remove column and select update or select purge expired coupons, then select update.
A historical database, which can be imported and analyzed in database orspreadsheet software, is maintained on all coupons used. The couponuz.dbfcan be FTPd to your PC for further analysis in MS Access, MS Excel, or other data management software. This could be useful in determining which coupons bring you the most activity. The number of uses for each coupon is also displayed in the admin table.
The coupon usage report module can provide historical data within your admin. You can summarize or list each coupon used for a specific time period. You can also restrict the output to a specific coupon code or a string of characters in a coupon code. This latter is useful when you have assigneda series of coupons to an affiliate or advertising campaign. You can determine how much business was brought in with the coupons from various sources.
The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed.

The subtotal module by world zone allows you to specify different shipping rates based on the method of shipping AND the subtotal cost of the order AND the area of the world the item is being shipped to. This Miva Merchant module evaluates the "ship to" country and displays its methods and rates applicable to the destination. This prevents customers from selecting its lower rates which may not be available for them. The module can also exclude specific product codes from the subtotal calculation, i.e. doesn't charge shipping for specific products but does charge for those not on the exempt list. You can also have a zero shipping charge for any subtotal range, e.g. free ground shipping on orders over $200. If you want to apply a percentage of the subtotal instead of a specific amount, you can include the % with the rate for any subtotal range. In the compiled version of Merchant, you can designate specific products that cannot be shipped by a specific method if they are in the basket. Hence, an ineligible product can block one or more of this module's methods from the shipping selection list. The module will not block the display of methods from other shipping modules if you have more modules assigned to your store.
The base plus weight module by ZIP code zone allows you to specify different shipping rates based on the method of shipping AND the weight of items AND the zip code in your country the item is being shipped to. This Miva Merchant module evaluates the "ship to" zip code and only displays those methods and rates applicable to the destination. This prevents customers from selecting lower rates which may not be available for them.
You have two options for inputing zip codes into zones, thus allowing you to nearly duplicate common carrier tables. This decreases your reliability on their sometimes fragile server conditions.
Option 1: In the Zone field, add the first three (3) numbers of each zip code you want to include in the zone separated by a ¦ delimiter, e.g. 334¦335¦336
Option 2: In the Zone field, add the first three (3) numbers of zip code ranges you want to include in the zone separated by a ¦ delimiter, e.g. 334-336¦362-369
You cannot mix options within a single zone, so you can use either option 1 or 2 but not both. You are not limited in the number of zip codes you include in each zone. You are also not limited on the number of methods you can have in this shipping module.
The ultimate Miva Merchant autoresponder module - send specialized emails at the completion of the order. These emails are in addition to or in place of the standard emails which are sent at order completion, e.g. merchant notification, customer confirmation, vendor specific notification, and even cell phone emails. It also can send welcome emails when a new customer account is created. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
Features: - Autoresponder - specialized emails at the completion of the order - Merchant notification and customer confirmation - Vendor and product specific templates - Can limit sending based on a specific attribute/option code for a product - Include coupons or promo codes when specific products ordered - Optionally require an input to allow the email, e.g. a response from Addendum - Easy to use checkbox configuration of vertical or horizontal layout emails - Highly configurable free form template layout emails with embedded tokens - HTML or text email formatting - Archive flat file is created for each template, easily track sales activity - Mail Manager Report module can display the flat file contents by time period or product - Ship to, bill to and other email addresses for each template - Send emails to your company's internal departments, e.g. shipping - Emails to web enabled cell phones as abbreviated messages - Open architecture so that other events can also trigger an automated response - Can resend emails when the customer knows and enters their order number and email address - Use render token to send an email from any pagein the store - Send a welcome email before the order completes and optionally include a promo code, customer login and password - Include 3rd party data with module tokens, e.g. Addendum responses - Display shipping and payment invoice messages - Create packing slip and label emails - Ship to country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations - Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon - Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Feature Details. In admin, you create one or more template emails. Eachtemplate can be different, i.e. what it displays, how the data is oriented on the screen/paper, and what product(s) triggers the autoresponder. Most responses are triggered by the product codes purchased. Some example uses:
Email to any of your drop-ship manufacturers listing the Ship To address and the products to be shipped if using real time creditcard authorization. The module will sort out which drop shippergets which emails, including listing the products to be shipped. Unlike some other vendors' drop ship notification modules, this one only includesthe products belonging to the associated drop shipper. Thus a drop shipper doesnot see the products being supplied to the customer by other drop shippers when the order contains multiple product sources. Youcan still use the module if you are not using real time authorization, but you would send the email to your pending mailbox until manual processingverified the charge, then forward to the drop shipper. This would savehand entering the order. In addition to the email, an archive flatfile is created which you can use to easily track sales activity related to each of your drop-ship manufacturers.
Email to Ship To or Bill To or both thanking them for a donation to your sponsored charity on your site.
Email to your shipping department listing Ship To addressand products ordered if using real time credit card authorization. Products section can be cut/folded to result in a shipping label with your company address included. If notusing real time authorization, use the pending mailbox technique similarto the drop shipper scenario above.
Email a promo coupon code if a customer purchases a specificproduct or from a list of products
Email service, warranty, shipping and contact information on specific products or product lines
Send an email to your cell phone's inbox when orders are placed in your store (requires a cell phone plan that assigns an email address to your phone).
You own a mall with multiple stores within the mall. Thosestore owners rent the stores from you for a percentage of their gross. Use mail manager as an audit tool to track theirsales. In addition to the autoresponse email, mail manager produces a flat file with order ID, date, product name, product code, quantity, price for each, and price extended. Periodically retrieve that flat file and import into a spreadsheetfor easy analysis.
The included Mail Manager Report module can display the contents of that flat file through admin. It can filter the report by specific timeperiods (daily, weekly, monthly) within reason. The limits of your PC or server may prevent very lengthy reports for excessively long time periods. It can also limit the report to only one product code. Since the templates canbe designed for each vendor, you can create individual vendor flat files with a corresponding report for each vendor.
Literally, you can have a different autoresponder for everyproduct in your store.
However, Mail Manager has a somewhat open architecture sothat other events can also trigger an automated response. For example:
Send a welcome email before the order completes, but afterthe customer completes the registration process (for those thatcreate an account)
Send a thank you for rating a product (using our Rate This system)along with a coupon code for taking the time to do so
You can use the ifvar script or var token in these "other event" emails. For example, generate a unique coupon code with a module token and insert it in the welcome email to give the new customer an incentive to buy now.
Use a render token to send an email from any page in the store. For example, put it on the product page to send a specific email when a specific product's page is viewed by a customer who is logged in. The email goes to their password recovery address (but could be bill to or ship to address). If you want it sent to a hard coded address, e.g. yours to monitor traffic,you would put your email address in the 3rd parameter of the token. The uses of this feature are endless. Send a coupon to entice customers to buy when they visit specific product screens. Tell them about other products related to the one they just viewed.
As you can see, the uses of this Mail Manager are quite diverse. Some of the variable features configured through admin for each template are:
Show or hide any of the data elements
Orient your email either horizontally or vertically
There is also a free form template using an extensive list of tokens and mini-scripts to customize the emails that are sent at the time of order completion. They can vary from mimics of the standard merchant notification and customer confirmation emails to brief order notifications for better acceptance within cell phone emails. The emails can be plain text or HTML formattedemails for better readability. You can change the fonts, colors,layout and even add images to your confirmation and notificationemails. If your shipping and payment modules are configured withinvoice notices, these can be included in the emails with a token. You can include data from other 3rd party modules, like Addendum, by using tokens. You can also create packing slip and label emails with the "ship to" country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations when using the HTML template. In the free form template you canalso set the time so that it can be offset from the server time,thus display for a different time zone in each of your emails.
Customize your email and store's physical address
Designate email recipient, i.e. Ship To and/or Bill To and/or fixed email address
List full or partial Ship To and/or Bill To address
Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon for their next visit
Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Resend order emails if the customer knows and enters the order number and email which match the actual order. The form for these two data elements can be placed anywhere you can edit the store user interface, e.g. headers, footers, welcome screen.
You can specify the product code and an attribute/option value that must also be met before the email will be sent. This is particularly useful when the emails are used for vendor notification. A certain product might bedrop shipped by two different vendors and the only difference is the selected attribute/option value.
Insert a "require" token that has to be met before the email will be allowed. As example,have a checkbox using Addendum to ask a customer if they want to be added to a list server (mailing list). Then if they check the box, the "yes" response is sent to Mail Manager. The Mail Manager can then generate a specifically formatted email to activate an email address at your list server, if you have one.
Write a different body for each of the email templates you add
List products and prices or just the products without prices
Link the email usage to one or more product codes or entire inventory with wildcard
No need to go to each product to link the email, a copy and paste froma flat text file will add hundreds instantly
I'd be surprised if you find that this capability exists anywhere in any mid-priced shopping cart system. Autoresponders that fill in the blanks are one thing, but this is a store owner, pre-planned autoresponse for a specific product. Within your store, you could have dozens of different responses (individual or grouped) or a wildcard response for all of the products. You can use itto make connections not directly related to sales, yetlinked to a specific sale.
Customer buys a kayak from your store. Tell them about the kayak camp 20 miles from your store and give them the 800number of the guy with the info about a big get together next month.
Customer buys an orchid from you which would lead you to believe he/she may have a specific variety you have been looking for. You autorespond with your want list for your nursery inhopes of finding the needle in a haystack.
As you can see, this list could be endless. Targetted, intelligent autoresponders are designed to increase your store'sbusiness and decrease the amount of time employees spend on sendingout product specific, emails.
The pre-formed templates are easy to configure and do not require programming experience. For the more experienced, you also have the option of using tokens and mini-scripts in free form templates. An example free form template is included with the install documents.
The weight table shipping module by state zone allows you to specify different shipping charges based on the method of shipping AND the weight of items AND the State the item is being shipped to. The module evaluates the "ship to" State and only displays those methods and charges applicable to the destination. This prevents customers from selecting lower shipping charges which may not be available for them.
The weights are setup by range groups, ie. from weight total X to weight total Y, the charge is Z. Multiple weight range groups can be established for each method of shipment and each state zone. A state zone can include one or more states. As a wildcard, you can charge shipping to all states not already placed in a zone rather than placing every state in one of the zones.
