| Shipping Destinations
Shipping Destinations are zones to which your products can
be sold and shipped. These zones affect shipping calculations
and tax calculations.
When a shopper visits your stall and proceeds through the
checkout process, they are prompted to enter their shipping
address to determine shipping costs.

3. Enter a name of the Shipping Destination you
are going to add and click 'Update'. The Shipping Destination zone
will be created.
4. The shipping destination now has a name but is empty. You need to now add
countries, states, cities or zip/postal codes to it. Use the expanded 'Shipping
Destination Details' form to do so.

The Shipping Destination details' form is divided
into 4 subsections: 'Countries', 'States', 'Cities' and 'Zip/Postal
codes''.
The 'Set' side of each of these subsections is meant to display locations pertaining
to the destination zone you are editing. When you first start editing the details
of a destination you created, the 'Set' side is empty. Your task is to move the
locations pertaining to the zone being edited from the 'Unset' side to the 'Set'
side. It means that if you want your zone to contain, for example, United Kingdom,
you should select United Kingdom (Great Britain) from the list of countries in
the 'Unset' column and click on the '<<' button. 'United Kingdom (Great
Britain)' should then appear in the 'Set' field. You can add more than one country
at a time: hold Ctrl while clicking on the names of countries with your mouse
to select multiple countries, then click on the '<<' button. All of the
selected countries will be moved to the 'Set' side. The 'Quick select' feature
allows you to quickly select countries by regions. If you click, for example,
on the link 'North America', all North-American countries will be automatically
selected in the 'Unset' list so you could move them to your destination. The
'>>' button removes countries from the destination zone by moving them
back from the 'Set' to the 'Unset' column.
After you have added countries to your destination zone, add states/provinces.
The
states/provinces you want to include into your zone also need to be moved to
the 'Set' side of the 'States' subsection.

The 'Cities' and 'Zip/Postal codes' subsections allow
you to set up masks for smaller
areas.
