Where Used

The County, City and State are defaulted when a new address is added on the centralized address object. In addition, for implementations using legacy address, the same information is defaulted onto new addresses defined on location, person correspondence or account / person override.

For implementations using the location object in the legacy address functionality, characteristics and geographic values are also defaulted when the postal code for a location is changed.
