Adding State/Province Codes

You add state and province codes in your Commerce Server database to identify the states and provinces where you ship your orders. The state/province codes identify the states and provinces that appear on your Web site.

  • Country/region codes must be added to your Commerce Server database before the state and province codes for that country or region can be added. If you try to add a state/province code for a country or region you have not yet added to your database, you will receive an error message. For more information about adding country/region codes, seeĀ Adding Country Codes.
