Can you create a "free" shipping provider that overrides product shipping fees?

We are trying to create a new shipping provider that would function as a Will Call request ($0.00 shipping, only available in our state I suppose)
Using the per order method works fine.. except it is always adding on any individual product extra ship fee's
What's the best way to make this work?
I've been trying to make some custom BusinessRules tasks that would maybe reset order shipping to $0.00 for that shipping provider but can't get it to work yet... am I on the right path? Or anyone try anything else?

You may need to scan the order and calculate a negative shipping rate to offset the extra ship fees. For example if the order has 2 items, each with an extra ship fee of $1, then you could return -2 was your will call rate. I think (without checking) that BVC5 will add -2 + 2 = 0 final cost.
If including the entire state is too big of an area, you might want to take a peek at my Shipping Rate Rule Providers. They include the ability to hide a shipping method based on the distance (which is calculated using postal codes). For example,
If delivery distance in miles < 25, cost = 0.
Otherwise, hide this method. |
