State
Most countries are subdivided in smaller jurisdictional areas. The names of these areas are defined in the State function and specified when creating business relations.
Note: You can also use the State function to define provinces or other types of legal reporting units.
Use the State activities (36.1.3.2) to create, view, and modify state records. You can also delete a record that is not referenced in the system.
