I have a customer with a guest on a military base in Korea. I'm not sure how to enter the order for direct shipping to that customer. Can someone help me out? Pretty please!
 
The back of the outside order form on CC reads like this:

Direct Shipping: If you would like your order shipped directly to you, you
may pay a Direct Ship rate. All 48 contiguous states and APO/FPO addresses
calculate shipping based on the order value. Use Pantry Subtotal A plus Product
Subtotal C to calculate your rate using the Direct Ship Rates to the right.
Click to expand...

So if it is just one guest, direct ship, then you should be able to just enter their address and choose the direct ship option, and P3 will calculate it just like any other customer with a direct ship order.

Right but I don't know how to enter the address.... :D
 
Oh :D

The APO/FPO part goes in the City part, the AP/AE/EE etc goes into the state part. Zip goes in the zip, address in the address, of course.

HTH

I think I have it. Now, is there tax that I should be charging? It's not loading anything (I didn't figure it would) but I want to be sure before I submit the order.
 
No tax for APO/FPOs. :)
