Broadleaf commerce where does Shipping Information be populated

I have been playing around Broadleaf commerce for a few days and found that it is a great framework. Thanks for all of those who built this. However, I am facing a problem and am waiting anyone to help. The problem I found can be reproduced by following below steps:

Therefore, my question is I would like to know how such shipping information be populated. I also checked the table "blc_customer_address" and found that a row that represented such information was deleted, but the blc_address.is_active is still equal to 1, which does not make sense.

By the way, I set up the website according to Broadleaf2.2, MySql database, and Apache Tomcat.

Thanks in advance.

In Broadleaf, we think about shipping information as 'Fulfillment Groups'. An Order can have multiple of these. For instance, if you have 2 items that you have added to an Order, you can send those to 2 different addresses. This would look something like:

Order 
    -> FulfillmentGroup
        -> FulfillmentGroupItem
            -> Product A
        -> Address 1 (ship to Chicago, Illinois)
    -> FulfillmentGroup
        -> FulfillmentGroupItem
            -> Product B
        -> Address 2 (ship to Dallas, Texas)

For Customers, you are right there is simply a relationship table called 'CustomerAddress' that just relates a Customer to an Address. However, when you delete something, this does not remove the address itself (because as you can see, that can also be related to a Fulfillment Group) and so it just deletes the relationship.
