Definition

Identifies the country in which the delivery originates.

Use

You can define country keys in a table. As a rule, it is a good idea to use the existing international standards for identifying vehicles from different countries (for example, USA for the United States, and I for Italy). The system uses the key to determine:

  • Relevant taxes in pricing
  • Important country-specific standards (such as the length of postal codes and bank account numbers)
