Notes on Address Fields
If any address fields are filled in, you MUST HAVE information in the Address 1 and Country fields.
Address Types
When assigning an address to a specific type (ex: Billing), the address is then restricted to their respective dropdowns in the Cart. If an address has not been assigned with a type or has been set with BOTH, these addresses will be available under both Shipping & Billing Addreses dropdowns in the Cart.
Upload requires that if an address type is assigned, it uses one of the 3 valid values:
- Shipping
- Billing
- Both
See Image 1 & Image 2 below
Image 1:
Type = Shipping or Both
Image 2:
Type = Billing or Both
Address Default Billing / Address Default Shipping
Assigning an address as the DEFAULT BILLING/DEFAULT SHIPPING will automatically select this address in the respective dropdown when a company is selected in the Cart. It is not required to set any address as the default, but if left blank, the first address on the company will be assumed to be the default. A single address can be both the default billing & default shipping, but a company can only have one default of each type. Assigning more than one address on a single company as the default will result in the last address in the list overriding the first one as the default.
