# Address

Displays the current order's billing and shipping addresses, lets the user pick from the customer's saved addresses, and supports creating a new address inline. Pairs with **Customer/Vendor Selection** (which sets the customer) and **Select Customer Address** (which provides the picker).

## Available in

* Order Form modules **only**

## When to use

* Standard placement on every Order Form page that ships physical goods or invoices to a billing address.
* Order types where the address differs from the customer's default (e.g. drop-ship, delivery).
* For pickup-only orders with no shipping, you can configure Order Types so the block hides automatically.

| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Title**                | Heading text shown above. Default: *Address*.                                                                                                                                                                                             |
| **Address Type**         | Which address(es) to show: Billing, Shipping, or Both. Default: Billing.                                                                                                                                                                  |
| **Order Types**          | Multi-select filter — block only shows for the selected order types. Options: Cash & Carry, Drop Ship, Delivery, Pickup, Special Order, Quote. Empty list = always show.                                                                  |
| **Use Location Address** | When on, the block uses the order's active location address as the default for the configured order types, rather than the customer's saved address. Useful for workflows where the ship-from or bill-to is the store/warehouse location. |
| **Debug mode**           | Surface diagnostic info for troubleshooting address issues. Off / On. Default: Off.                                                                                                                                                       |

## How it works

1. Reads the selected customer from session state (set by Customer/Vendor Selection).
2. Loads the customer's address book.
3. Displays the configured Address Type with default-address pre-selected.
4. The user can switch the displayed address (via Select Customer Address) or create a new one inline (via the New Address dialog).
5. The chosen address is written to session state and used at order submit.

If **Order Types** is configured, the block checks the current order type and hides itself when not in the list.

A request-ID mechanism prevents stale fetches from overwriting newer data when the user changes customer or order type rapidly.

{% hint style="info" %}
For separate **Bill To** and **Ship To**, use two Address blocks — one with Address Type = Billing and one with Shipping. Or use a single block with Address Type = Both for a stacked display.
{% endhint %}

## Examples

**Standard delivery flow.** Customer/Vendor Selection at top → Select Customer Address (Shipping) → Address (Address Type: Both, Order Types empty). Customer's default ship/bill addresses load; user can change.

**Pickup-only order.** Address with Order Types = `[Cash & Carry, Pickup]`. The block hides for Delivery and Drop Ship orders.

**Drop-ship workflow.** Address with Order Types = `[Drop Ship]` only. Address only appears when the order type is Drop Ship.
