I am looking for the FedEx Web Services mod that includes weight and or dimensions for determining rate. The one I found does not include that option. Any suggestions?

I am using OSC 2.3

Not sure why I am not receiving any input on this. FedEx requires package dimensions to obtain accurate rate info. I can't be the only one experiencing this problem. Can anyone help with this dilemma?

This may not be much help, but, you can enter your weights as dimensional weights.
In the item editor page set your weights there and forget about aggregate weight.
We ship a lot of very bulky items and have found this to be to the only solution so far.
L x W x H / 199 for domestic
L x W x H / 164 for international
The webservices fedex module appears to be just an adaptation of a module written for another cart system and has no oscommerce developer and thus no one supporting it.

We are going to have to find ways to fix the module as it does not work in it’s present form.
No support for:
2nd Address line
special characters that show up in foreign addresses cause the module to crash
no support for items that must ship separate
no check to prevent customers from entering a PO box as the shipping address
