Default Recipient Type for E-Commerce Orders (H33)

Purpose: Use this screen to define the default type of alternate ship-to address to create for orders you receive through the order API.

Code field: Enter the code identifying the default type of recipient customer to create for an alternate shipping address if a shipping address type is not specified in the inbound order message. Valid codes are:

• ORDER or blank - Create an ship-to address for this order only. This setting has the same effect as setting the ship_to_type to 1 in the inbound order message.

• CUSTOMER - Create a recipient address for a separate sold-to customer. This setting has the same effect as setting the ship_to_type to 2 in the inbound order message.

• PERMANENT - Create a permanent ship-to address for the customer. This setting has the same effect as setting the ship_to_type to 3 in the inbound order message.

Leave this field blank to have the order API default to creating an order-level ship-to address, or if you do not create ship-to addresses through the order API.

For more information: See Creating or Selecting Shipping Addresses or Customers for an overview of how the order API creates or selects a shipping address.
