Order Entry Question

I'm trying to create a simple sales order for testing purposes.

I create an order with qty 4 of GZ-1000. I click Quick Finalize Order. I 
leave the shipping address blank because it's a customer pick up, I 
click No Shipping under shipping method, and I click COD as the payment 
method. When I click "Continue to Final Order Review" I get a

The Following Errors Occurred:

Please Select a Shipping Destination.

error message. If I go back and select a shipping destination, then the 
"No Shipping" shipping method choice goes away. No combination of 
choices will get me out of this screen and I'm stuck.

Any ideas?

This error usually happens if you choose UPS shipment method. I never  
use this method, that's why didn't track this error message.

When I do that and click "Continue to Final Order Review" I get this

I think we are talking about different things.  I was talking about over the
counter sales (no shipping).

Were I live, a will-call is taxed at the point of sale.  Thats why I
suggested the facility address.

It could very well be different in other locations, but I shouldn't think
that it would be the customers billing address.  I know for a fact that if I
buy something in California with me standing at the counter for example, I
will be expected to pay the California sales tax rather than my own local
Washington sales tax.

If I ship something out of state, I am expected to pay the sales tax in the
destination jurisdiction.

Washington authorities are miffed that their residents frequently drive to
Oregon to get a lower sales tax rate.

For tax calculation?

I believe there are legal guidelines for this sort of thing... and if
there is no shipping address then the customer's billing address
should be used.

It seems like using the company's (vendor's) ship-from address would
be problematic...

On the other hand, if I remember right digital goods (or other non-
shipped products) are sometimes not taxed, so you should check into
that.

As mentioned, you need an address for sales tax calculation, so no address
works only if you pick an address to do the tax calculation.  Might as well
be the facility address.

Yes, this is a problem in my view.  If NO_SHIPPING is picked, the address of
the facility should be automatically used.

I intend to make it so shortly.

I think you need a shipping destination even for "No Shipping"
shipping method. It is needed for tax calculations.

If the user don't have a shipping address, you have to use "New
Address" link from Quick Finalize Order screen to create one. Then
first you have to choose the shipping address, then shipment method
and finally the payment method(all through radio buttons in Quick
Finalize Order screen).
Hope this helps.
