Using Places on Orders
When creating an order, the pickup and dropoff fields autocomplete from saved Places. Selecting a Place automatically populates:
- Full address
- Contact phone number
- Security access code
This reduces data entry errors and ensures consistent routing.

Places are not constrained by Service Areas or Zones. They are independent location records — Service Areas operate separately for rate and routing scoping.
