Verifying shipping zones for orders

When entering orders, the following rules determine which zone table is used:

■    A country is defined for the Ship to address - The zone table used is the one for which the Ship Method and Country combination matches an order's Ship to address Country and Shipping Method.

■    A country is not defined for the Ship to address - The zone table used is the one for which the Ship Method matches an order's Shipping Method. The zone table has a blank Country field.

After the correct zone table has been determined, the following rules determine whether the Default Zone defined in that zone table is used:

■    The Ship to address:

□    Does not specify a postal code, or

□    Specifies a postal code that does not match any of the entries in the Table list for the zone table.

■    The Ship to address of an order specifies a postal code, but the Table list for the zone table does not contain any entries.
