If a new billing address is also used for shipping (the corresponding checkbox is set) Magento of course creates a record in sales_flat_order_address
for each.
Is there any reason why customer_address_id
field which keeps the reference to customer/address
entity is only saved for billing address while shipping remains NULL?
Note: The issue can be reproduced only for inserting a new address during the checkout. For existing addresses it puts references for both. Which is even more strange.
Note2: you can observe this behavior in sales_flat_order_address
and sales_flat_quote_address
.

I believe this is not true, at least in EE 1.13:
