The shopper is allowed to enter a PO Box address as their billing address, but not as their shipping address. I hope this is clear, is there anyway to achieve this?

Thanks,")* Hi, There is no option to have different fields/checks on the fields based on whether the address is a shipping address or a billing as an address can actually be used for both. It would require a customization of the code in order to add that check before the order is created. I think that developing a hikashop plugin implementing the onBeforeOrderCreate trigger should do the job.
