GeoZones override zip code zones. Orders for addresses in a GeoZone can only be rated by zone if the base rate details include the zone reference for that GeoZone. See the example 121272488 below. This is because addresses that are in a GeoZone will always be located in that zone, regardless of customer, order type, or rate chart since X Dispatch looks at zones with GeoZones first.

You want to treat Central Park in New York City as a special zone. A polygon is drawn around Central Park to designate it as its own GeoZone, and all orders going to or from Central Park are rated by the newly created Central Park GeoZone, and never by zip code. Orders to other areas of the city continue to be rated by ZIP Code.
