258: Specified Shipping DateOfBirth must be at least 21 years old.
- This means the date of birth on the shipping address is not compliant. To edit the birth date, go to the Summary tab on the order and select 'Edit' under the Shipping Address and edit the birth date. Once you have corrected the birth date on the shipping address, go back to the Compliance tab and select "Retry Compliance".
- This means there is no SKU with that product name that exists in ShipCompliant, or the SKU you have in ShipCompliant does not match what you have setup on Commerce7. Check your ShipCompliant account. It is important to have the the product SKUs in ShipCompliant match the SKUS in Commerce7. After you make the correction on the products that are causing the order to quarantine, go back to the order > Compliance Tab and select 'Retry Compliance'.
- Remember that both 'Shippable' and 'Non-Shippable' Products must be set up in ShipCompliant!
225: At least one Shipment Item must be specified in the Shipment.
- This error often goes hand-in-hand with the 201 error above. If the the only items in the Order are not set up properly in ShipCompliant, then ShipCompliant doesn't see/recognize them. Therefore, ShipCompliant doesn't think that there are any "shippable" Products in the Order.
- This means the SKU for the product listed is not setup as a non-freight item in ShipCompliant. Once you have this corrected in ShipCompliant, go back to the order, select the Compliance tab and then select "Retry Compliance".
208: ShippingService not found in system [Ground].
- Ensure you have the correct carrier codes for your shipping services setup in Commerce7. You can check this by going to Settings > Shipping in Commerce7.
