Adding State/Province Codes

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

Notes

• You must add a country/region code to your Commerce Server database before the state/province codes for that country/region can be added. If you try to add a state/province code for a country/region you have not yet added to your database, an error messages appears. For more information about adding country/region codes, see Adding Country/Region Codes.
• After you add a state/province code, your system administrator must unload the Commerce Server application from memory on each Web server for the change to take effect. For more information, see Unloading an Application from Memory.
