What is the State/Province module?

The State/Province module is designed to facilitate the addition of new states or provinces to your database. This functionality is particularly useful when expanding your client base to include customers from countries not previously recorded in your system.

By creating a new state or province, you can ensure that all transactions and client information associated with that region are accurately recorded and managed.

Creating States/Provinces

Creating a new state/province involves entering details such as the name, code, and associated country. Before creating a new state/province, you'll first need to create the associated country, using the Country module.

Once the country is established, you can then proceed to add the new state or province, ensuring that your system is equipped to handle the global business operations.

To create a new state/province, go to Menu > Admin > State/Province

In the State/Province module, enter the following details:

• Name: This field allows you to define the following fields to create the state/province. For example, California.

• Abbreviated Name: This field allows you to enter a standardized short form or abbreviation of the state's or province's name. For example, "CA" for California.

• Alias: This field allows you to enter any alternate names or commonly used nicknames for the state or province. For example, "Cali" for California.

• Country: This field allows you to select the country to which the state or province belongs.

After entering the details, click "Save" to create the new state/province.
