Province attribution
Check province attribution on guest orders
A guest checkout can still contain order address fields, but the customer account cannot be used as a substitute for them.
Inspect the source record
Inspect the guest order itself for shipping and billing country and province. Look at the order, not a later customer profile.
Build a focused report
Choose the address basis on TaxPack's form and include the order's date and current status in a focused report.
Read the result
The selected order address controls province grouping. A guest order with incomplete selected fields is flagged or UNRESOLVED rather than guessed.
A concrete example
A guest's account-less order can be attributed to BC when its stored shipping province is BC; no customer profile is required.
Avoid this mistaken conclusion
Do not use IP geolocation or a payment gateway address as a silent fallback. Those are different data sources from the selected order address.
