These fields tell SureTax what service is actually being billed.  Ubersmith uses the recorded zip code to determine the location to tax for.  If there is no zip code set on the service, it looks to see if a device or location is set on the service, if no zip code is found after that, the client’s zip code specified in their primary contact details is used.
