Additional Fee charged for specific size T-shirts

Hi We've built a T-Shirt website using eCart5 and need to charge $19.00 for shirt sizes small - Large and we need to charge an additional $3.00 for sizes XL, XXL, and XXXL. Please advise on how to charge the additional $3.00

Thanks

Erick

Hi Erick,

Are your sizes stored in a database table?

In my experience, in order to acheive what you describe, you'd need to add an additional field to your 'Sizes' database table which stores an incremental value, $3 in your case, for each size that you need to charge an additional fee for.

You then need to store that incremental value in your cart, when the customer is adding items to basket, and add/apply that incremental value to the 'Price' value once it's in the basket.

Hope that gives you some ideas.
Nath.

Thank you Nathon for your response! What makes this a bit unique, i think, is that we are calling the Tshirt color and size via a list menu and not from the record set / database. How would we achieve this using this method?

you could do this using a calculation in the eCart object on the calculations tab.

assuming that the values being passed for the size select list are "XL", "XXL" and "XXXL", and that the name of the size column is "Size"

create a new calculation named truePrice as:
(abs([Size] == 'XL' || [Size] == 'XXL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price]


then change the TotalPrice calculation:
[Price] * [Quantity]

to:
((abs([Size] == 'XL' || [Size] == 'XXL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price]) * [Quantity]


and in the cart display, replace the binding for the Price column with the binding for the truePrice.

Thank you very much for the direction! I did all of the steps you have recommended and it works when I try to add to cart any t shirt that is a 2XL or higher, however, when I try to order a t shirt that is a small, medium, large I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method bakatus_ItemDefinition::Quantity() in /home/content/52/8601252/html/WA_eCart/bakatus_PHP.php on line 340

On a side note, when I order a XL, it is sent to the cart but the charge that shows is just $3.00. i'm pretty sure that my calculation formula is off but I'm not sure what to change to fix the problem.

Thanks again,

Jackie

change the Total Price calcualtion:

(abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price] * [Quantity](abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price] * [Quantity](abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price] * [Quantity]

to:

((abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price]) * [Quantity]

if you continue to have a problem, include a link where i can see the problem with your reply

Thanks Jason, the only thing that is causing issue is that the additional $3.00 is applying to the XL as well which it should only be 2XL and Higher. This is what I currently have in the TotalPrice calculation:

((abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL' || [Size]))?[Price] + 3:[Price]) * [Quantity]

The website store link is: products.php

in the copy of the cart you sent,

XL is included in the calculation for truePrice:

(abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL' || [Size] == 'XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price]

change that to:

(abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price]

and set the total price calculation to:

((abs([Size] == '2XL' || [Size] == '3XL' || [Size] == '4XL' || [Size] == '5XL'))?[Price] + 3:[Price]) * [Quntity]

Thank you very much, it worked great!
