All States
This screen displays all States.
States provide two geographical functions for the website.
First, they are used to define Shipping Zones, Product Shipping Zones, and Tax Zones.
Secondly, they are used to create the address entry fields that
your Customer will use to enter their billing address and each
recipient's shipping addresses.
The Billing Address is entered by the Customer
- during checkout on the Billing Information Page, or the Express Order Page, or the Order Preview Page.
- after they login and view their My Account information, and update their billing address on the Account Profile Page.
The Shipping Address is entered by the Customer
- during checkout on the Shipping Address & Arrival Page.
- after they login and view their My Account information, and update their shipping addresses on the Update Address Book Page.
NOTE: The Country selected by the Customer affects the State selection
list for the Customer. The website system uses this method to unclutter
the State selections available to the Customer by displaying only the
State choices within Country selected by the Customer.
IMPORTANT: If a Country does not have any States defined for it, the
website will display a blank text area for the Customer to enter the
State value themselves. This value will be saved and exported with the
Order data.
